Tire tread and buttress
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a tire tread and buttress showing our new design, it being understood that the pattern is repeated throughout the circumference of the tire tread and buttress, the opposite side being substantially the same as that shown;
FIG. 2 is a front elevational view thereof;
FIG. 3 is an enlarged fragmentary front elevational view thereof;
FIG. 4 is an enlarged fragmentary side elevational view thereof; and,
FIG. 5 is an enlarged fragmentary front elevational view of a second embodiment of a tire tread and buttress, it being understood that the pattern is repeated throughout the circumference of the tire tread and buttress as in the FIG. 1 illustration of the first embodiment.
The innermost solid line between the dotted line and the tread and buttress as well as the dotted line itself are for the purpose of defining the peripheral boundary of the tread and buttress and the sidewall and form no part of the claimed design.
