ABSTRACT:
A pneumatic tire is provided, comprising a substantially toroidal carcass cord layer applied to an inner liner, a tread portion surrounding a circumferential portion of the carcass cord layer and including at least one reinforcement belt, a left sidewall portion surrounding a left side of the carcass cord layer and extending from a left side of the tread portion, and a right sidewall portion surrounding a right side of the carcass cord layer and extending from a right side of the tread portion. Left and right bead portions extend, respectively, from the left and right sidewall portions, each of the bead portions including a reinforcing bead. Substantially flexible protective barriers are disposed (i) intermediate the left side of the carcass cord layer and the left sidewall portion and (ii) intermediate the right side of the carcass cord layer and the right sidewall portion, the protective barriers located a predetermined distance from the reinforcement belt so as not to be overlapped by the reinforcement belt. The substantially flexible protective barriers are comprised of a fabric material such as nylon, rayon, polyester or Aralon.RTM.. The carcass cord layer is oriented with respect to the protective barriers so that cords in the carcass cord layer and cords in the protective barrier fabric material form an angle of between three and forty-five degrees.
