Abstract

Abstract A pneumatic radial tire for use in large vehicles having a carcass ply consisting of layers of rubber coated cords extending in radial directions of the tire between beads on both sides, and a reinforcing breaker in a crown encircling the carcass ply in circumferential directions. At least one organic, natural or synthetic cord layer wider than adjacent metal cord layers is arranged between the metal cord layers forming a breaker.
