Abstract: The present invention provides a tire for a vehicle comprising: a rotation axis, a midplane at a central position along the rotation axis; a circumferential tread portion around the rotation axis, the circumferential tread portion comprising: a tread pattern exhibiting at least a first pitch pattern and a second pitch pattern each comprising: a center block crossed by the midplane, and two side block alignments, said side block alignments being inclined with respect to one another and extending from the center block; the first pitch pattern including: a first pitch length, a first number of blocks; the second pitch pattern including: a second pitch length which is shorter than the first pitch length, and a third number of blocks which is greater than the first number of blocks.

Abstract: This invention discloses a tire tread comprising: (a) a first tread cap layer comprising a first rubber composition; and (b) a second tread cap layer arranged radially inside of the first tread cap layer comprising a second rubber composition; wherein at 0° C. the rebound resilience of the first rubber composition is within a range of 10% to 25%, the rebound resilience of the second rubber composition is within a range of 15% to 35% and is at least 5% lower than that of the second rubber composition; and wherein at 100° C. the rebound resilience of the first rubber composition is within a range of 45% to 65%, the rebound resilience of the second rubber composition is within a range of 60% to 75% and is at least 3% higher than that of the first rubber composition.
