The reinforcement includes a thick-walled portion (18, 42, 62, 82, 96, 102, 164, 112, 122, 132, 142, 152, 204, 216, 234, 256, 276, 294) as a longitudinal central portion thereof, and two decreasing-thickness portions (20, 44, 66, 98, 104, 166, 114, 124, 134, 146, 154, 206, 218, 236, 258, 278, 296) as longitudinally opposite end portions. Each decreasing- thickness portion has a wall thickness which continuously decreases in a longitudinal direction from the thick-walled portion toward the longitudinal end of the corresponding end portion of the reinforcement, such that the wall thickness at the longitudinal end is substantially zero.",
