A tire for a vehicle wheel includes at least one first component and at least one second component. The at least one first component includes a first elastomeric material crosslinked in substantial absence of sulfur. The at least one second component includes a second elastomeric material crosslinked with sulfur. The at least one first component is in contact with the at least one second component. The first elastomeric material includes an elastomeric polymer including carboxylic groups. The first elastomeric material is crosslinked by reacting the elastomeric polymer including carboxylic groups with an epoxidized liquid organic compound. The epoxidized liquid organic compound comprises epoxide groups located internally along a molecule of the epoxidized liquid organic compound. The second elastomeric material includes at least one elastomeric polymer functionalized with at least one epoxide group, at least one carboxylic group, or at least one epoxide group and at least one carboxylic group.
