Abstract

The invention relates to a shield-shaped side-wall protection element for a vehicle tire and to a protective device for vehicle tires. In order to provide a side-wall protection element for vehicle tires that can optimally protect a tire side wall under rough conditions, that can be produced economically, and is easy to install, the invention provides a shield-shaped side-wall protection element for a vehicle tire, comprising a radially inner base, an outer edge, which forms the radially outer end and which extends in a circumferential direction, and with a shield segment, which extends from the outer edge at least to the base, wherein the outer edge is at least partially offset axially inward from the base). The protective device for vehicle tires according to the invention comprises a plurality of shield-shaped side-wall protection elements arranged overlapping in the manner of shingles in a circumferential direction.
