Claim 16:
17. A method of making the tire assembly of claim 13, the method comprising:
providing the tire having the inside surface and the outside surface opposite to the inside surface;
placing the two or more electrical conductors, including a first electrical conductor and a second electrical conductor electrically insulated from the first electrical conductor, wherein each electrical conductor of the two or more electrical conductors extends from the outside surface of the tire to the inside surface of the tire on a particular side wall selected between the inner side wall and the outside side wall; and
placing the two or more external electrical conductors extending circumferentially on the outside surface of the tire, including (i) a first external electrical conductor that is electrically coupled with a first group of electrical conductors extending from the inside surface of the tire to the outside surface of the tire, including the first electrical conductor, and (ii) a second external electrical conductor that is electrically coupled with a second group of electrical conductors extending from the inside surface of the tire to the outside surface of the tire, including the second electrical conductor, wherein the first group of electrical conductors is mutually exclusive from the second group of electrical conductors.
