Modern radial car tires are mounted only on safety rims.

The hump prevents the tire from being pressed out of the

When the tire is inflated, the tire bead may not slip
completely over the outer rim hump. |
In this case, there is the danger that the bead bundle will
be overstretched if the tire pressure is too high and the steel
wires rupture partially or completely. Torn bundles are often
not detectable from outside. |
DANGER!
Tires with damaged bead bundles are not seated
