Description

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a tire tread, showing our new design;

FIG. 2 is a front elevational view thereof;

FIG. 3 is a side elevational view thereof, the opposite side elevational view being identical thereto; and,

FIG. 4 is an enlarged fragmentary front view thereof.

The tread pattern is understood to be repeated uniformly throughout the circumference of the tire tread. The broken line showing of the tire sidewall in the drawings is for illustrative purposes only and forms no part of the claimed design.
