Tyre construction basics
-
Tyres look simple enough from the outside, but the mix of components inside is the result of extensive (and expensive) research and development by the tyre manufacturers. Each tyre type and profile is designed to meet a specific and exacting set of requirements, either set down by the vehicle manufacturers (when the tyre is specified as Original Equipment) or to meet a defined range of demands that make it attractive as an aftermarket fitment.
All the components of a tyre work together to meet a specific set of requirements, and consumers need to know what their requirements are, and what the trade-offs might be, when they select a tyre for their 4x4.
