Abstract: A tire tread includes a middle rib formed by two circumferential main grooves extending along a tire circumferential direction, a first shoulder rib disposed axially outward from the center rib and one of the circumferential main grooves, and a second shoulder rib disposed axially outward from the center rib and the other of the two circumferential main grooves. The middle rib has a repeated group of three sipes: a first sipe being inclined radially inward a first angle relative to a radial direction, a second sipe being inclined radially inward a second angle relative to the radial direction, and a third sipe being inclined radially inward a third angle relative to the radial direction. The second angle is between ?0.5 degrees and +0.5 degrees. The first and third angles are oppositely radially inclined to each other and the radial direction.
