Structure of Automotive Tires: Automotive tires are categorized by their carcass structure into: Conventional Structure Tires. The plies' cords are layered in a crisscross pattern, making the carcass sturdy with good lateral rigidity but poorer cushioning performance. Radial Structure Tires. The cords in the carcass are arranged radially, perpendicular to the tire's circumference, maximizing strength. Radial tires have lower rolling resistance, better cushioning performance, and longer mileage compared to conventional structure tires.
