Description



FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a tire tread showing my new design, it being understood that the tread pattern repeats circumferentially throughout the outer circumference and shoulder of a tire, the opposite side perspective view being identical thereto; and,

FIG. 2 is an enlarged fragmentary front elevation view of the tire tread of FIG. 1.

In the drawings, the internal configuration of the three circumferential tread grooves is shown in broken lines indicate that they form no part of the claimed design. The broken line disclosure of a tire sidewall and inner bead represents environmental structure only and forms no part of the claimed design.
