A MASS ASYMMETRIC TIRE
The tire includes a summit surrounded by side portions terminating in beads provided to cooperate with a mounting rim. A carcass reinforcement is surmounted by a summit reinforcement composed of reinforcing plies. When the tire is mounted onto its standard mounting rim and inflated with its nominal pressure, each side portion has an upper side point, a bottom side point, an intermediate side point, an upper side portion, and a bottom side portion. A weight of the bottom side portion on one side portion is at least 15% lighter than a weight of the bottom side portion on another side portion.
Beadlock system for wheel assembly
A tire and beadlock clip system for assembly on a rim employs a tire of a type having an annular recess in each sidewall of the tire. As a result of the recessed sidewall structure, one or more beadlock clip can be directly engaged, after seating of the tire, between a corresponding abutment surface region, provided on the outer surface of the sidewall and oriented to face away from the rim lip, and an opposing surface of the rim, thereby opposing separation of the bead region from the bead seat. Preferably, the clips are resilient clips which can be snap-fit into engagement manually or with a mallet. Alternatively, a positive clamping mechanism may be provided.
MOUNTED ASSEMBLY INCLUDING A PNEUMATIC TIRE
The fitted assembly (10) comprises a tire (11) for a passenger vehicle comprising a working layer (26) which is axially the least wide, the working layer (26) which is axially the least wide having an axial width T2 expressed in mm. The fitted assembly (10) comprises a fitting support (100) comprising a rim (200) with a rim width A according to the manual of the ETRTO 2019 standard, and expressed in mm. The tire (11) has a load rating LI such that LI≥LI′+1, LI′ being the load rating of an EXTRA LOAD tire with the same size according to the manual of the ETRTO 2019 standard. The ratio T2/A is such that T2/A≤1.00.

Bicycle and tire structure
A tire structure disposed at a rim is provided. The tire structure includes a tire body, a flexible sealing member and a nozzle. The tire body is ring-shaped and includes a groove and two beads. The flexible sealing member is connected to the tire body to form an inflating space with the groove, and the flexible sealing member includes a through hole. The nozzle is disposed at the flexible sealing member. The nozzle includes a base and a valve stem. The base includes a screw hole and is disposed at a far side of the flexible sealing member. The screw hole corresponds to the through hole. The valve stem includes a fastening end and an inflating channel. The fastening end is configured to insert into the screw hole, and the inflating channel is configured to allow the gas to pass therethrough.
Tire for two-wheeled automotive vehicle
A tire for a two-wheeled automotive vehicle includes a carcass that is extended on and between one of beads and the other of the beads along inner sides of a tread and sidewalls. The carcass includes a first ply and a second ply that is layered outward of the first ply. The first ply is turned up around the beads from an inner side toward an outer side in an axial direction. By the turning-up, the first ply includes a main portion and turned-up portions. The second ply is turned back around the beads from the outer side toward the inner side in the axial direction. By the turning-back, the second ply includes a main portion and turned-back portions.

Pneumatic tire and method for manufacturing same
A pneumatic tire includes an annular tread portion extending in a tire circumferential direction, a pair of sidewall portions disposed on both sides of the tread portion, and a pair of bead portions disposed inward of the sidewall portions in a tire radial direction, and the sidewall portions have an average thickness set to range from 1.0 mm to 3.0 mm at a deflection region of each sidewall portion including a tire maximum width position. The bead portions have a bead base width set to range from 115% to 130% of a tread development width of the tread portion.

Beadlock assembly
A dual, internal, pneumatic, boltless beadlock assembly for effectively securing a tire to a rim is disclosed. A pneumatic beadlock assembly is disposed inside a tire and mounted on a rim. A pneumatic beadlock assembly exerts a force on the two circumferential inner beads of a tire such that the tire stays in secure contact with the rim, even when the inflation pressure of the tire is not sufficient to lock the tire to the rim.
