Abstract: An assembly comprising a rim having a substantially cylindrical bearing surface having at least one depression therein, and an annular run-flat support mounted on the bearing surface. The radially inner surface of the support further comprising a protuberance to engage the depression in the rim, and wherein a radially innermost base portion of the support includes a plurality of substantially circumferentially oriented reinforcement elements. The reinforcement elements are axially spaced apart, and the reinforcement elements are absent in an axial portion of the base portion radially outward of the protuberance.

Abstract: The invention includes tire treads, tires incorporating such treads, and methods for forming the same with a reduced undertread thickness. The treads include a length, a thickness, and a width, the width extending transverse to a direction of the tread thickness and a direction of the tread length. The treads further include a void extending into the tread thickness by a depth to a bottom side of the void, the void having a length and opposing sides spaced apart to form a void width. Yet further the treads include a ridge arranged along the bottom side of the void and protruding outward from the bottom side by a ridge height, the ridge also having a ridge length extending at least substantially continuously along the substantial length of the void.
