ABSTRACT:
A tire/wheel assembly, wherein bent parts (4f) bent outward are formed at the leg end parts of an annular shell (4), an inclination angle (α1) of a line segment L1extending from the axially outer end (P3) of the bent part (4f) through the apex (P1) of a hump (1f) on a rim relative to a direction perpendicular to a tire axis is set to within ±5° in a cross section orthogonal to the circumferential direction of the annular shell (4), the area (4s) of the annular shell equal to the height (B) of at least 35% of the height (A) from the radially inner end of the annular shell is formed linearly, the inclination angle (α2) of an extension line (L2) along the inner surface of the linear area (4s) relative to the direction perpendicular to the tire axis is 15 to 30° in axial inner side, and the extension line (L2) passes between the apex (P1) of the hump (1h) and the toe tip (P2) of a tire bead part.
