Abstract
In a first aspect, the present invention is directed to a tire comprising a rubber component reinforced by one or more metal cords, wherein at least one metal cord of the one or more metal cords comprises mega tensile metal filaments including N essentially parallel core filaments, and M sheath filaments wound around the core filaments, with N being an integer from 2 to 5 and M being N−1. The mega tensile metal filaments have a diameter D within a range of 0.25 mm to 0.5 mm, and the sheath filaments have a lay length within a range of 50 multiplied by D to 70 multiplied by D. In another aspect, a cord reinforcement comprises at least one metal cord, which comprises mega tensile metal filaments, including N=3 core filaments and M=2 sheath filaments, wherein D is within a range of 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm.
