Abstract

A retreaded tire comprised of a tread and carcass with an intervening rubber layer, conventionally referred to as a cushion, wherein the tread has an oil rich rubber-based adhesive on its inner surface at the interface between said tread and cushion. Said oil rich rubber based adhesive is free, or substantially free, of volatile organic compounds, particularly volatile organic solvents. Alternately, the oil-rich rubber-based adhesive may contain oil and volatile organic solvent wherein oil is the major component insofar as the oil and solvent is concerned.
