Tire tread
Latest Michelin Recherche et Technique S.A. Patents:

FIG. 2 is a enlarged fragmentary front elevation view of the tread pattern of FIG. 1.
In the drawings, the dark stippled surface shading represents the recessed portion of the tread grooves, having a depth as best shown along the right edge of FIG. 1. The broken line disclosure of a tire sidewall and inner bead is for illustrative purposes only and forms no part of the claimed design.
