1. A method for dynamically determining a tire longitudinal force, comprising:
determining a tire acceleration variable by an acceleration sensor arranged in a tire bead, where the variable is defined as an acceleration occurring within the tire bead;
determining a first time interval between a tire contact patch entry point and an acceleration vertex by a processor unit;
determining a second time interval between the acceleration vertex and a tire contact patch exit point by the processor unit; and
determining a magnitude or direction of a tire longitudinal force variable comprising a tire longitudinal force by the processor unit from a symmetry shift detected between the first and second time intervals.
