A pneumatic tire with a reinforcement material includes: a tread that comes in contact with a road surface; side walls that extend and form shoulders and inner liners at both sides of the tread; a carcass that is integrally attached to the tread and the inner sides of the side walls and forms a turn-up head at both ends of the side walls; a belt layer that is layered on the tread of the carcass; and a bead that includes a bead core inserted in a wheel inside the turn-up head, a bead filler inserted in a side of the tread of the bead core, and a reinforcement material inserted in an interface of the turn-up head.

Pneumatic tyre having a toroidal carcass, which has a body ply that is partially folded onto itself and therefore having two lateral flaps; two annular beads, each of which is surrounded by the body ply and has a bead core and a bead filler; an annular tread; a pair of sidewalls; a pair of abrasion gum strips; an innerliner which is impermeable to air and is arranged within the body ply; and a transponder which is arranged between the body ply and the innerliner at a flap of the body ply and is arranged at a distance of less than 7 mm from an edge of the body ply.

A pneumatic tire, wherein, in a state of being mounted on a rim, defining the rim diameter as D, the length from the rim position representing the rim diameter D to the maximum tire radial height as SH, the rim flange height as G, the rim flange radius as R.sub.2, and the bead filler height H.sub.bf as the tire radial height with respect to the rim position representing the rim diameter D, the bead filler height H.sub.bf is less than or equal to a value obtained by the following formula: {SH−(G−R.sub.2)}/4+(G−R.sub.2). The cord is provided in at least one part from a bead portion to a sidewall portion 3 at an angle of 0 to 10° to the circumferential direction.

To provide a rubber compound for tires, a pneumatic tire and an airless tire capable of improving the steering stability of the tire while exerting excellent low fuel consumption performance. A rubber compound for tires characterized in that, of vulcanized rubber's physical properties, a complex elastic modulus E*.sub.70 (unit: MPa) and a loss tangent tanδ.sub.70 under initial strain of 10%, dynamic strain of 2% and temperature of 70 degrees C., satisfy 90<E.sub.70<250, and E*.sub.70/tan δ.sub.70>800. A pneumatic tire provided with a rubber member made of the above-mentioned rubber compound. An airless tire provided with a rubber member made of the above-mentioned rubber compound. An airless tire provided in a tread ring with a shear rubber layer made of the above-mentioned rubber compound.

A tire has an axis of rotation. The tire includes two inextensible annular bead structures for attachment to a vehicle rim, a carcass-like structure having at least one reinforced ply, the carcass-like structure being wound about the two bead structures, a tread disposed radially outward of the carcass-like structure, and a shear band structure disposed radially between the carcass-like structure and the tread. The two bead structures include at least one layer of a three dimensional fabric including a tear drop frame structure and open cells defined by the tear drop frame structure.

Improving endurance of bead of radial tire for heavy vehicle. Tire has two beads (2) contacting rim (3) connected by carcass reinforcement (4) having carcass layer (5), with main part (6) wrapped, in each bead (2), axially from inside towards outside of the tire, around bead wire (7) having diameter (L), to form turnup (8) having free end (E). Each bead (2) has filling element (9) with filling compound (10) and extending radially towards outside from bead wire (7) and axially between turnup (8) and main part (6). The distance (I) between turnup (8) and main part (6) decreases continuously from bead wire (7) as far as a first minimum distance (a) reached at a first point (A) of turnup (8), then increases continuously from the first point (A) of turnup (8) as far as a first maximum distance (b) reached at a second point (B) of turnup (8).

A heavy-duty tire includes a tread part formed such that the tread part includes a crown profile including tire equator, and a pair of shoulder profiles extending from outer sides of the crown profile to tread edges. In a tire cross section including tire rotation axis in 5% internal pressure state in which the tire is mounted to a normal rim, filled with air at internal pressure of 5% of normal internal pressure and loaded with no load, each of the crown and shoulder profiles has an arc shape convex toward tire radial direction outer side such that ratio Rc/Rs of curvature radius Re of the crown profile to curvature radius Rs of each shoulder profile is 7.0 or more, and a tire axial direction distance from the equator to a connecting point between the crown profile and each shoulder profile is 0.70 or more times a tread half width.

Resistance to unseating of a passenger is achieved by a tire comprising a bead having an axial width at the seat D comprising a circumferential reinforcing element (22) of which the radially innermost point (222) is at a radial distance Z and at an axial distance Y from the radially innermost point (211) of the bead, and such that Y/D is at least equal to 0.5 and Z/D is at most equal to 0.4. The end of the carcass reinforcement (311) is situated radially on the outside of the radially outermost point (223) of the circumferential reinforcing element. This same bead comprises at least one bead layer (23) surrounding the bead filler rubber (21) and such that its axially outermost end (231) is radially on the outside of the end (311) and such that its axially innermost end (232) is at least radially on the outside of the point (222).
