An improved aircraft tire 10 is described. The tire 10 has at least one circumferentially extending reinforcement inserts. At least one reinforcement inserts 90 is located on one side of the tire. Each insert 90 preferably has two cord reinforced members 91,92 having bias angled cords. The cords are equal but opposite in orientation relative to the cords of the adjacent member. The pairs of reinforced members 91,92 extend from the bead portion 18,20 and terminate in a radially upper portion of the sidewall 14A,16A. Each pair of reinforcement members 91,92 is interposed between the carcass plies 36,37,38,39,40,41, and the sidewall of the tire 10. This structure can increase tire durability while at the same time achieve a significant weight reduction. In a preferred embodiment of the invention the inserts 90 are located on only one side of the tire, this asymmetric construction prevents tire damage from an arrestor cable used on aircraft carriers. Alternatively the inserts can be symmetrically added to each side of the tire
