Abstract
An improved radial ply pneumatic passenger tire 30 having a conical shaped lower sidewall 21B in the unloaded uninflated and mounted state. The angular relationships relative the design rim flange 44 and the bead 33,533,63 permit the lower sidewall 21B of the tire 30 to rotate slightly upon mounting to the design rim 40, thereby improving the stiffness and handling characteristics of the tire 30.
