Abstract: A method for correcting tire imbalance of a tubeless pneumatic vehicle tire includes the step of mounting the tire on a master wheel rim of great manufacturing precision and having a design that is identical at least in its seat surface to commercial wheel rims for the tire. The tire is inflated to a pressure within a range of -0.3 bar to +0.2 bar of a maximum operating pressure. The pneumatic vehicle tire mounted on the master wheel rim is pressed against a measuring device. At least one radial parameter is measured. The values of the radial parameter are recorded as a function of the angle of rotation from 0.degree. to 360.degree. of the tire. The maximum and the minimum of the radial parameter is determined and the difference between the maximum and minimum is calculated. The difference is compared to a predetermined threshold value. The bead of the tire, when the difference between the maximum and the minimum is above the threshold value, is corrected.

Abstract: A method for producing polymer profiles, having a varying thickness over their width and at least one longitudinal side tapering off to form a thin edge, includes of the following steps: Extruding simultaneously a plurality of the polymer profiles through a common die such that the thin edge of each one of the polymer profiles is connected to the thin edge of at least the neighboring one of the polymer profiles to form an interconnected extrudate; in a cross-section of the interconnected extrudate, providing an angle of between 45.degree. and 135.degree. between angle bisectors of neighboring ones of the polymer profiles; and separating the polymer profiles from one another after the step of extrusion.
