FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a tire tread, it being understood
that the tread pattern is repeated uniformly throughout the
circumference of the tread;

elevational view being a mirror image thereof; and,

In the drawings, the broken lines defining the inner bead of the
sidewall and the peripheral boundary between the tire tread and the
sidewall are for illustrative purposes only and form no part of the
claimed design.
