Abstract
A pneumatic vehicle tire having a radial carcass, the load-carriers of which are made of steel or of a material of comparable high strength, and the ends of which are anchored in the tire beads by being looped around pull-resistant bead cores. The tire has a centrally disposed tread strip with a recessed portion on each side, and a multi-ply belt, which to the sides extends into the recessed portions, and which has load-carriers made of steel or the like. A low-damping rubber layer can be disposed between plies of the belt. In order to achieve a further reduction of resistance to rolling, it is proposed to dispose a rubber layer, of soft, low-damping rubber, between the radially innermost ply of the belt and the radial carcass, with this rubber layer having a Shore A hardness in a range of from 50 to 65, and a rebound elasticity in a range of from 55 to 70%.
