ABSTRACT:
This disclosure relates to a pneumatic tire construction which has a bead latch located axially outwardly of the rim flange in the lower sidewall area of the tire. This construction provides a safer configuration for the tire when it is run flat or under abnormal conditions. The bead latch prevents the bead from becoming unseated on the rim and moving into the drop center portion of the rim.
