BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
To allow wheels with overall diameters of 24″, 26″, and 28″ to have a high-performance low-profile tire with an all-smooth surface area for maximum traction along with meeting minimum DOT approved tread pattern for daily use on public streets, or raceways.
2. Discussion of the Prior Practices
Cars with exotic oversized wheels with diameters ranging from 24″, 26″ and 28″ usually have extremely low-profile tires on the wheels with tread patterns that is used for daily driving conditions where they are used in various types of weather conditions such as rain, mud, slippery roads, and snow. But within the last 3 years cars with oversized wheels have been known to drag race their cars with big wheels while never considering high traction and high-performance applications. The only low-profile tires on the market that are large enough for these size wheels are not manufactured for high performance applications such as speed, traction, steering, and stopping. With this tire invention people would finally have a low-profile tire for oversized wheels that were capable of being used on public highways while also getting maximum traction during racing applications at local raceways while ensuring that the safety of the driver will be met by having maximum steering, stopping, and traction for better handling.
One object of the present invention is to allow the public to have the first low-profile tire for oversized wheels that can be used at the race way during racing applications, and to also have tires of the same size that are legal on the public highways.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
A tire that has an all-smooth surface area on the face of the tire to allow more surface area contact with the ground for maximum traction that also has minimal tread on it to meet minimum DOT approved requirements for public highway use, and with an increased overall diameter larger than prior high-performance tires that are mounted on wheels significantly larger than prior high-performance wheels. While also being able to fit a wheel with a diameter of 24″, 26″ or 28″, while also having a sidewall profile (thickness) of 25, 30, or 35. This tire invention will also have a width ranging in various size options of 255, 245, 255, 265, 275, 285, 295, 305, 315, and 325.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES OF THE DRAWING
FIG. 1 is a side elevation view of the tire and how it will look with a tire profile size (thickness) of 25 while also being able to fit a wheel with a diameter of 24″, 26″ and 28″. While also having a sidewall profile (thickness) optional sizes available of 30, and 35.
FIG. 2 is a side elevation view of the tire and how it will look with a tire profile size (thickness) of 35 while also being able to fit a wheel with a diameter of 24″, 26″ and 28″. While also having a sidewall profile (thickness) optional size available of a 25, or 30.
FIG. 3. is a vertical cross-sectional view of the narrowest width tire size of 255 with an all-smooth surface area that meets DOT approved minimum requirements to be used on public highways and streets.
FIG. 4. Is a vertical cross-sectional view of the widest tire size of 325 with a possible minimum tread design that meets DOT-approved for use on public highways and streets.
FIG. 5. is a guide explaining how a tire is classified for high applications. Any tire with at least a Z rating is classified as a high-performance tire.
FIG. 6. is a guide explaining how to read tire sizes and how to read and interpret the overall sizes of a tire, what wheel diameter size it fits, tire sidewall profile (thickness), and width of the tire along with how the tire speed rating is classified.
DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
In FIG. 1, FIG. 2, FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 are different in certain ways but all of them serve the same purpose and that is to simply provide higher traction for cars with large diameter wheels on public highways and streets and to allow them maximum traction during steering, stopping, and excessive speed applications on public highways while having an all slick surface area on the footprint of the tire to allow more surface area contact with the ground creating maximum traction while also being able to use them at the raceway. Cars that have large wheels with overall diameters of 24″, 26″ and 28″ usually have a FIG. 6 low-profile sidewall tire ranging from/25/, /30/, or/35/in size (thickness), with a FIG. 6 width of 255, 265, 275, 285, 295, 305, 315, or 325, are not FIG. 5 manufactured for high performance applications for even S rated speed rating let alone manufactured for high traction by having an all smooth race tire. This tire invention will provide maximum traction from accelerating quickly, steering, and stopping while also being able to take the abuse of centrifugal force during high speeds of FIG. 5 a Z rated tire. And these key points stated above will allow this tire invention to be the first high performance low-profile tire for oversized wheels that will be legal to use on public highways, streets, and raceways. And this tire invention will come in sizes FIG. 1 large enough in diameter for a 24″, 26″ and 28″ wheel, with a sidewall profile of/25/, /30/ and /35/ and width FIG.4 from 255, 265, 275, 285, 295, 305, 315, and 325 while also implying that whatever combination of tire sizes previously stated, will be Z rated.
