Description
FIG. 1 is a front elevational view of a tire tread showing our new
design, it being understood that the tread pattern is repeated
throughout the circumference of the tire tread, the opposite side
being the same as that shown;
FIG. 2 is a side elevational view of the right side thereof, the
opposite side being identical thereto; and,
FIG. 3 is a side perspective view thereof.
In the drawings, the broken lines defining the sidewall, inner bead
and the peripheral boundary between the claimed tire tread and the
unclaimed sidewall depict environmental subject matter that forms
no part of the claimed design.
