Description

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

FIG. 2 is a front elevational view thereof, the opposite side being identical thereto;

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

Claims
