Abstract
In a tire having an aspect ratio H/S of less than 0.8 the radial carcass nforcement (1) is wound in each bead (B) around an anchoring bead ring (2) going from the outside to the inside to form a turn-up (10), the turn-up being located on the inside of an angle .alpha., open axially towards the inside and radially towards the outside of at most 45.degree. and defined by two straight lines OD.sub.1 and OD.sub.2 tangent to the circle circumscribed around the anchoring bead ring (2), the straight line closest to the axis of rotation of the tire being parallel to the axis.
