A method of assembling a tire mold core comprising: (a) moving simultaneously approximately perpendicularly into and toward the center of the approximate tire plane containing the radii of the tire to be formed, a first unexpanded core segment group; (b) radially expanding said first core segment group within the tire plane; (c) arresting the expansion of said first core segment group by stopping the radial movement of the respective core segments of said group when the core segments are positioned so as to partially form a tire mold core; and (d) repeating steps (a), (b) and (c) for each remaining unexpanded core segment group until the tire mold core is complete.
