The invention relates to radial-type pneumatic vehicle tires comprising at least one carcass layer (3), a profiled tread (1), a two-layer belt (2), and a belt bandage (6) which covers the belt and which comprises bandage cords that run in the circumferential direction of the tire and consist of at least one thread made of a textile material. The belt bandage (6) has a central bandage part (7) and two lateral bandage parts (8), wherein the central bandage part (7) reaches laterally beyond the edges of the radially outer belt layer (2b), and the two lateral bandage parts (8) adjoin the central bandage part (7), cover the respective remaining edge portion of the two belt layers (2b), and run axially outside of the edges of the radially inner belt layer (2a) so as to contact a carcass layer (3) portion with a width of up to 15 mm. The bandage cord in the central bandage part (7) consists of a single thread, and the bandage cord in the lateral bandage parts (8) consists of two threads twisted together.
Pneumatic Tire Having Structure of Dual Reinforcement Belt Layer

Additionally, the carcass layer has a cord angle of 80° or more and 100° or less. Additionally, the belt layer is formed by layering a first reinforcing belt, a second reinforcing belt that is narrower than the first reinforcing belt, and an auxiliary belt that is spaced apart from a tire equatorial plane and disposed between the carcass layer and the first reinforcing belt. Additionally, the first reinforcing belt and the second reinforcing belt have cord angles of 11° or more and 30° or less, and the auxiliary belt has a cord angle of 55° or more and 70° or less.
Run-Flat Tire
A run-flat tire includes a belt reinforcing layer outward of a belt layer in a tire radial direction and reinforcing rubber in sidewall portions. Where a center region is a region of a tread portion in which a center land portion corresponding to a land portion included in land portions in a tread portion and located closest to a tire equatorial plane is positioned, the belt reinforcing layer includes a center reinforcing portion in which more pieces of the belt reinforcing layer are layered at a position of the center region than at positions other than the position of the center region, and in the belt reinforcing layer, a width Wc of the center reinforcing portion in a tire lateral direction with respect to a thickness Gr of the side reinforcing rubber at a tire maximum width position is within a range of 0.5 Gr≤Wc≤2.0 Gr.
Pneumatic tire
A pneumatic tire has a tread reinforcing layer comprising a net structure formed from a tape of rubber coated reinforcing cord(s). The net structure comprises first oblique segments and second oblique segments of the tape which intersect with each other, forming interspaces therebetween. The first oblique segment has a first axial outer part in which the angle of the tape with respect to the tire circumferential direction decreases toward one end in the tire axial direction of the net structure. The second oblique segment has a second axial outer part in which the angle of the tape with respect to the tire circumferential direction decreases toward the above-said one end of the net structure. The first axial outside part is connected to the second axial outside part directly or through a circumferential segment of the tape.
