Claim 0:
1. A tire for a wheel rolling on an underlying surface, the tire being elastomeric and non-pneumatic and comprising a plurality of layers that are structurally different and arranged in a radial direction of the tire, wherein:
an outer one of the layers comprises an outer surface for contacting the underlying surface;
an inner one of the layers comprises an inner surface for facing an axis of rotation of the wheel;
an intermediate one of the layers is disposed between and is in contact with an outwardly-adjacent one of the layers and an inwardly-adjacent one of the layers, configured to decouple elastic deformations of the outwardly-adjacent one of the layers and the inwardly-adjacent one of the layers, and comprises reinforcing cables that comprise a metallic material and that extend transversally to a circumferential direction of the tire;
an elastomeric material of the intermediate one of the layers is different from at least one of an elastomeric material of the outwardly-adjacent one of the layers and an elastomeric material of the inwardly-adjacent one of the layers; and
the intermediate one of the layers is stiffer in a given direction than the outwardly-adjacent one of the layers.
