Tire comprising a crown reinforcement formed of at least two working crown layers of reinforcing elements, crossed from one layer to the other making with the circumferential direction angles comprised between 10° and 45°. A first layer S of polymer compound is in contact with at least one working crown layer and in contact with the carcass reinforcement, the first layer S of polymer compound extending axially as far as at least the axial end of the tread, the first layer S of compound polymer compound is made up of a filled elastomer blend having a macro dispersion coefficient Z greater than or equal to 65 and a maximum tan(δ) value, denoted tan(δ)max, less than 0.100 and its complex dynamic shear modulus G*, measured at 10% and 60° C. on the return cycle is greater than 1.35 MPa.
Tire with a radial carcass reinforcement comprising a crown reinforcement formed of at least two working crown layers of reinforcing elements, crossed from one layer to the other making with the circumferential direction angles comprised between 10° and 45°, a first layer of polymer compound being in contact with at least one working crown layer and in contact with the carcass reinforcement, said first layer of polymer compound extending axially as far as at least the axial end of the tread, said tread radially capping the crown reinforcement and being connected to two beads by two sidewalls, wherein said first layer of polymer compound is made up of a filled elastomeric compound having a macro dispersion coefficient greater than or equal to 65 and a maximum tan (δ) value, denoted tan(δ)max, less than 0.100 and wherein the complex dynamic shear modulus, measured at 10% and 60° C. on the return cycle, of said first layer of polymer compound is greater than 1.35 MPa and less than 2 Ma.
