Description
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a tire tread showing my new design,
it being understood that the pattern repeats uniformly throughout
the circumference of the tread;
FIG. 2 is a front elevational view thereof;
FIG. 3 is a right side elevational view thereof; the opposite side
elevational view being identical thereto; and,
FIG. 4 is an enlarged fragmentary front elevational view
thereof.
In the drawings, the broken lines defining the sidewall, inner bead
and the peripheral boundary between the tire tread and the sidewall
are for illustrative purposes only and form no part of the claimed
design.
The dark stippled surface shading represents the recessed portion
of the tread grooves having a depth as best shown in FIG. 2.
