Zusammenfassung:METHOD OF INCREASING THE LOAD CARRYING CAPACITY OF A RADIAL TYRE Abstract s There is provided a method of increasing the load carrying capacity of a radial tyre. The method comprises the steps of determining a maximum load, x + y; providing a mold for a radial tyre capable of molding a tyre having a rated load x; and adding a spacer between adjacent mold halves thereby increasing the axial width of the mold to achieve the rated load x + y. The method further includes the steps of designing an unvulcanized 10 tyre having a belt reinforcing structure and a radial ply by increasing the belt width and ply width of the tyre and applying sidewall rubber to maintain a ply path curvature; and molding the tyre.
