Zusammenfassung:A pneumatic tire having an increased resistance to punctures. The pneumatic tire may have at least one puncture resistant ply constructed from a fiber reinforcement oriented circumferentially around the tire and providing circumferential reinforcement. The fiber reinforcement may be spirally wound around the carcass of the tire, wherein adjacent edges of the fiber reinforcement may overlap to form a continuous puncture resistant ply across the axial width of a crown portion of the tire. The pneumatic tire may incorporate at least one puncture resistant ply in place of at least one belt to provide both circumferential reinforcement and puncture resistance for the pneumatic tire.
