Abstract: A method for making a vehicle tire includes winding a carcass ply onto a carcass drum, wherein the carcass drum includes a device for setting tire cores and a mechanism for folding the carcass ply over a tire core; finishing the tire carcass; removing the tire carcass from the carcass drum; moving the tire carcass over a cambering drum; carrying out a core clamping with segments of the cambering drum with the tire sidewalls clamped with the tire carcass in the region of the tire bead at the cambering drum via core clamping; moving the carcass transfer unit away from the cambering unit; cambering the tire carcass with the tire sidewalls which are on both sides, wherein the tire sidewalls are turned up laterally on the tire carcass by a turning-up device and the tire carcass is combined with the coaxially arranged belt-tread packet; and, finishing the green tire.
