  • Pnuematic tire
    Publication number: 20080271827
    Abstract: The tire has a ground contacting tread portion, the tread comprising at least one straight circumferentially extending groove. The groove defines one lateral side and a lateral boundary of a plurality of tread elements. At least one tread element has a chamfer within the tread element and inward of the lateral boundary of the tread element. The chamfer extends in the circumferential direction of the tire and has an inclined radially outer surface. The chamfer has at least one traction element in the radially outer surface, the indentation extending radially inward of the radially outer surface of the chamfer.

  • Pneumatic tire with spiral grooving
    Publication number: 20080128061
    Abstract: The pneumatic tire tread has a radially outermost surface defining a circumferential length of the tire and the tread has at least one circumferentially extending groove. The groove has a spiral configuration across the tread surface and a pair of laterally spaced terminal ends. The circumferential length of the spiral groove, as measured between the terminal ends of the groove, is greater than 50% of the circumferential length of the tire. The spiral groove creates a spiral rib or projecting tread element row that moves across the tread width.
