Tire with dissymmetrical beads

A tire mounted on a drop-center standard rim having a diameter code greater than or equal to 10 and less than or equal to 20 and type “B” or “J” flanges, with a flange height G and a radius of curvature R1, the tire being inflated with an inflating gas to the tire's service pressure, this tire comprising:

• a first and a second bead, the two beads coming into contact with said mounting rim, each bead having an exterior surface, in contact with the atmospheric air, and an interior surface, in contact with the gas with which the tire is inflated, each bead comprising at least one annular reinforcing structure, the at least one annular reinforcing structure having, in any radial section, at least one radially innermost point;
• two sidewalls extending the beads radially outwards, the two sidewalls meeting in a crown comprising a crown reinforcement surmounted by a tread;
• a carcass reinforcement extending from the beads through the sidewalls as far as the crown, the carcass reinforcement comprising a plurality of carcass reinforcing elements and being anchored in the two beads by being turned back around the at least one annular reinforcing structure so as to form, within each bead, a main strand and a turned-back strand;
• wherein the first bead has a thickness EB1 and the second bead has a thickness EB2, the thicknesses EB1 and EB2 being defined as the distance separating
• (i) the axially innermost point on the interior surface of the main strand of carcass reinforcement that is at a distance R from a single one of said at least one radially innermost point of the at least one annular reinforcing structure of the bead, where the radial distance between said single one of said at least one radially innermost point of the at least one annular reinforcing structure and the mounting rim is denoted by A and R=G+(R1)/2−A, and
• (ii) the point on the exterior surface of the bead that is at this same distance R from said one of said at least one radially innermost point of the at least one annular reinforcing structure of the bead, and wherein the absolute value of the difference between the thicknesses EB1 and EB2 is greater than or equal to 1 mm and less than or equal to 8 mm, and the point on the exterior surface of the bead that is at the same distance R from the one of the at least one radially innermost point of the at least one annular reinforcing structure of the bead is not in contact with the rim flange.
