What is the function of plies?

Plies are the construction materials use to make a tire. The body ply is a sheet consisting of one layer of rubber, one layer of reinforcing fabric, and a second layer of rubber. The earliest textile used was cotton; later materials include rayon, nylon, polyester, and kevlar. Passenger tires typically have one or two body plies. They can also be reinforced with steel. Body plies give the tire structure strength. Truck tires, off-road tires, and aircraft tires have progressively more plies. The fabric cords are highly flexible but relatively inelastic.

Dealer says your tires are 12 ply it says 1 ply side wall steel belted and 4 ply steel belted tread why the why is the dealer saying 12 ply when nothing is on tire?

This all stems back to bias tires. A few decades ago, to gain more load carrying capability, tire manufacturers added more plies to increase the amount of pressure a tire could safely contain. Remember, the pressure carries the load, but the plies contain the pressure. Switch to radial tires, specifically radial truck tires (19.5, 22.5, etc.), tire manufacturers now use 1 single steel cord ply that runs radially from one bead to the other that has the equivalient strength of multiple fabric plies that were used in bias tires. Even with light truck tires, you might see a load range E radial tire referred to as a 10 ply tire, does it have 10 plies? Nope, usually 2 or in some cases 3 very strong polyester body plies.
