  "textContent": "The method of forming a composite belt structure (40) for a tire (21) is disclosed. The method discloses the steps of applying a multicord (46) reinforced strip (43) having a strip width (S W ) onto a rotating crowned building drum, the strips (43) being wound in a zigzag configuration to form at least two zigzag layers (41) wherein the crowned drum has non-overlapping portions of the strips (43) placed in a central portion and extending in alternation to a pair of shoulder portions having portions of the strips (43) overlapping, the central portion having a maximum diameter (D o )and the shoulder portions have a minimum diameter (D i ), the adjacent strips (43) being placed apart from 0 to 2 mm in the central portion and the strips (43) are increasingly overlapping in each shoulder portion as the strips (43) extend from the central portion toward lateral ends of the belt structure (40) to form belt layers (39, 40, 42) of a composite belt structure (40) having the cords per inch in the shoulder portion as measured axially inwardly from the axially inner edge of the strip adjacent the lateral ends of the narrowest radially outer belt layer (42) radially inwardly greater than the cords per inch in the central portion as measured centered on the centerplane of the belt structure. The resultant method produces a pneumatic tire (21) having a carcass (31) and a belt reinforcing structure (40), the belt reinforcing structure (40) having a composite belt structure of cord reinforced layers (39, 40, 41) including at least two radially outer zigzag belt layers (42).",
