Mounting Damage
Tires must be removed and installed by trained personnel.
Bundle broken during tire inflation.
Modern radial car tires are mounted only on safety rims. These have a hump -1- running along the shoulders.
1 - Hump (H2)
2 - Inner Bead Seat
3 - Rim
4 - Wheel Disc
5 - Outer Bead Seat
The hump prevents the tire from being pressed out of the bead seat during travel with insufficient tire pressure.
When the tire is inflated, the tire bead may not slip completely over the outer rim hump.
In this case, there is the danger that the bead bundle will be overstretched if the tire pressure is too high and the steel wires rupture partially or completely. Torn bundles are often not detectable from outside.
Damaged tire bead core.
No secure fit for the tire on the rim.
- Replace the tire.
