Abstract: An off-road pneumatic tire 10 having a tread 12 with a plurality of lugs 14, each lug 14 having a wide section 22 near at least one shoulder of the tread and a narrow section 24 crossing a centerline of the tread. In a preferred embodiment, each lug 14 having two wide sections 22, one extending from each shoulder 16, 18 of the tread 12 and being interconnected by the narrow section 24.

Abstract: An off-road pneumatic tire 10 having a plurality of lugs 14 extending from a first shoulder 16 to a second shoulder 18. The plurality of lugs 14 are separated by a plurality of wide grooves 20. The tire 10 has at least a first lug 22 and a second lug 24. The lugs 14 alternate circumferentially between the first lug 22 and the second lug 24. The first lugs 22 has three tread elements 30, 32, 34 separated by a first and second narrow groove 26, 28, and the second lug 24 has two tread elements 36, 38 separated by a third narrow groove 40. In a preferred embodiment, the respective lugs 14 incline from the first shoulder 16 to the second shoulder 18 and are interconnected by wide groove tie bars 44.
