ABSTRACT:
A radial ply pneumatic tire features a bead core which comprises an arrangement of filaments positioned relative to one another. The bead core has a cross-section and radially inward base side, a radially outermost point or side or sides, an axially inward first side, and an axially outward second side. The base side of the bead core is substantially linear and has a width being between 50% to 75% of the rim seat width. An associated rim has a pair of humps and a rim flange associated with each hump. Each rim flange has an axially inward surface, the distance between each hump and the axially inward surface of the associated rim flange being a rim seat.
