Abstract
A tire, which may be pneumatic or non-pneumatic, having beads which are each provided with an elastic annular member axially and radially inwardly of the associated bead core. The carcass ply is wrapped axially outwards of the bead core and part of the annular member. The tire bead seat has a taper angle which is greater than that of the rim bead seat such that on fitment of the tire to the rim the annular member, and the associated edge of the ply rotate around the bead core and cause the carcass ply to be placed in tension.
