Abstract
A vehicle pneumatic tire and a process of forming a vehicle pneumatic tire are disclosed, wherein the tire includes a patterned tread, a belt brace including at least one layer, bead areas having bead cores, and a carcass having at least one layer, which is arranged through the sidewalls, around the bead cores, and back into the sidewalls as turn-ups. The carcass, in a region between the belt binding point and the bead binding point, is formed with a length shorter than that of a theoretical carcass between the belt binding point and the bead binding points determined in accordance with an equilibrium figure. This abstract is neither intended to define the invention disclosed in this specification nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.
