Abstract:

To improve the slippage in a tire/wheel assembly with at least one of supporting surfaces being outwardly inclined.

The present invention relates to a method for preventing rotatory slippage between a tire and a wheel assembly. The tire has a plurality of supporting surfaces, and at least one of the supporting surfaces is inclined outwardly.
