Abstract: A method of forming a belt structure for a tire includes providing a drum having a center section. A first drum edge is near a first edge of the center section and a second drum edge is near a second edge of the center section. A first end surface extends from the center section first edge to the drum first edge and a second end surface extends from the center section second edge to the drum second edge, and a radius of each end surface is smaller than the center section radius. A rubber strip reinforced by a plurality of cords includes an outer edge and an inner edge. The strip is wound about the drum, turning from a first winding angle to a second winding angle on an end surface to reduce the tension and length differential between cords at the outer edge and inner edge of the strip.
