Abstract
A radial pneumatic tire comprises a pair of axially spaced apart beads. A radially reinforced carcass extends between and is secured at opposite end portions to the beads. The carcass includes a plurality of parallel extending reinforcing members. Each of the reinforcing members is disposed in a radial plane. A tread is located radially outward of a crown portion of the carcass. The tread is for engagement with a ground surface. A belt reinforcement package is disposed between the carcass and the tread. The carcass and belt package have particular profiles when the tire is properly inflated.
