Tire tread

Description

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a tire tread showing my new design, it being understood that the pattern is repeated uniformly throughout the circumference of the tread;

FIG. 2 is a front elevational view thereof;

FIG. 3 is a side elevational view thereof, the opposite side elevational view being a mirror image thereof; and,
