Description

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing my new pneumatic tire design.

FIG. 3 is a side elevational view of FIG. 2, taken in a direction parallel to the tire's axis of rotation.

The tread pattern is understood to repeat uniformly throughout the circumference of the tire, as shown schematically in solid lines. The dash-dot-dash lines delineating the claim boundaries and the broken lines depicting the unclaimed tire sidewall form no part of the claim.
