A tire having a crown reinforcement (5), comprising at least one crown layer (51), and a carcass reinforcement (6), comprising at least one turned-up carcass layer (61), the turned-up carcass layer (61) comprising mutually parallel reinforcers turned up, within each bead, from the inside towards the outside of the tire around a bead wire (7), to form a turn-up (8) comprising a free end (E). The turned-up carcass layer (61) comprises a crown portion (611) and a lateral portion (612), the crown portion (611) extending axially between a first and a second end (E1, E′1) which is symmetric about the equatorial plane (P), the lateral portion (612) extending radially inwards, from a first end (E2) as far as a second end (E3). The reinforcers of the lateral portion (612) and the reinforcers of the turn-up (8) form, with the circumferential direction (X), specified angles.
