Abstract

A tire with an asymmetric radial carcass reinforcement is improved due to the fact that on the side of the median plane of the beads which corresponds to the sidewall having the greatest curvature there is arranged a block for limiting the swing of the crown, this swing-limiting block being interposed between the radial carcass reinforcement and the tread reinforcement in the zone of parallelism between these two reinforcements. An expansion-limiting block is arranged on the other side of the median plane of the beads.
