As shown in FIG. 3, the rim 2 includes a rim well 11 that is in concave contact with the center of the rim 2, a pair of bead seats 12 connected to both ends of the rim well 11, and a pair of bead seats 12 connected to both ends of the bead seats 12. and a rim flange 13 disposed axially and radially outwardly, and the bead seat 12 has a fitting groove 15 extending circumferentially adjacent to the axially inner end a of the bead seat 12.
It is equipped with Furthermore, the bead portion 12 forms a smooth continuous downward slope from the axially outer side to the bottom of the fitting groove 15, and has a steep upward slope from the bottom of the fitting groove 15 to the axially inner end a of the bead seat 12. form.

The toe portion 7 contacts the bottom of the fitting groove 15 and fits into each other. As a result, when the axially inward force applied to the tread portion 5 is transmitted to the bead portion, radial and axially outward stress is generated in the bead core 3 and the protruding toe portion 7, resulting in the bead The fitting between the portion 9 and the rim 2 is further strengthened by the fitting groove 15.

Further, on the lower side of the rim flange 13, in this example, on the inner side of the intersection with the bead seat 12, there is a groove 16 extending in the circumferential direction and fitting with the rib 10.
It is formed by recessing the rim flange 13 axially outward.

Also, the width W of the groove 16 is 3 to 10 mm, and the depth D is 0.5 to 10 mm.
The depth D is 1.5 mm, and accordingly, the protrusion margin of the rib 10 is determined in accordance with this depth D so that the rib 10 fits into the groove 16. Further, when the depth D approaches 0.5 mm, the protrusion of the rib 10 becomes relatively small as shown in FIG. Moreover, if the width W is too wide, the internal pressure air retention property will be reduced when used as a tubeless tire, and if it is too small, the effect of preventing rim detachment will be reduced.

Note that the tire 1 can be attached to the rim 2 in the same way as a normal tire and rim. For example, in FIG. 1, after the bead portion 9 is fitted into the rim well 11 beyond the rim flange 13, the bead portion 9 is filled with air from the air valve 17.
is pressed toward the bead seat 12 and the rim flange 13 by internal pressure, the protruding toe portion 7 is pushed into the fitting groove 15, the bead portion 9 is firmly held on the rim 2, and the rib 10 is pushed into the groove 16. Fits in.

Next, the belt layer 6 is usually composed of a steel cord, and the cord is oriented at an angle of 10° to the tire equatorial plane.
It is inclined at an angle of ~30° and its width spans the entire width of the tread. The arrangement of this belt layer 6 improves the rigidity of the tire contact patch,
Stability is ensured when driving straight. Note that this belt layer 6 is not necessarily required in a tire with a cross-ply structure.
