FIG. 2 is a front elevational view thereof;

FIG. 3 is a side elevational view thereof; and,

FIG. 4 is a front elevational view of a tire tread showing a second embodiment of my new design, it being understood that a view from the side is substantially the same as that of the first embodiment as shown in FIG. 3.
