Abstract: A self-sealing pneumatic vehicle tire defines a tire circumference. The self-sealing pneumatic vehicle tire includes a belt assembly having a first width and defining a projection. A tread is arranged radially above the belt assembly and an airtight inner layer is arranged radially inwardly. A sealant layer applied radially internally after the pneumatic vehicle tire has been vulcanized has a second width approximately equal to the first width. The sealant layer is arranged approximately within the projection and defines an area radially above the sealant layer around the tire circumference. The inner layer is configured as a two part layer such that the inner layer does not lie approximately radially above the sealant layer in this area.
