Abstract: The invention relates to a vehicle tire, especially utility vehicle tire, comprising a tread which has a tread cap (9) and a tread base (8), both produced from a rubber mixture, and a multilayer ply structure (3, 4, 5, 6) with at least one undertread strip (7, 7?) covering the ply edges and separating the same from the tread base, said undertread strip being likewise produced from a rubber mixture. The aim of the invention is to reduce temperature and heat build-up in the area of the ply edges. For this purpose, the tread base (8) has a heat conductivity that is by at least 20% higher than that of the tread cap (9) and a heat conductivity that is by at least 10% higher than that of the one or more undertread strips (7, 7?), and the tread base (8) contains at least 25 phr of acetylene black.
