Runflat Tires, Tires, HP-Tires,
UHP-Tires |
The different classes of light weight vehicle car tires are standard tires, HP-tires (high performance tires and UHP-tires (ultra high performance tires). Runflat tires are a class of its own allowing to keep on driving with a punctured or flat tire. |

Cord Fabric, Greige Fabric,
Dipped Fabric |
A fabric made of cords. Without impregnation (or dipping) it is called greige fabric after impregnation it is a dipped fabric which can be used as a carcass material in tires. |
