Description

1 parts
›FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the…

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

FIG. 2 is a front elevational view thereof;

FIG. 3 is an enlarged partial front view thereof;

FIG. 4 is a right side elevational view thereof; and,

FIG. 5 is a left side elevational view thereof.

While only portions of the tread design are shown, it should be understood that the tread covers the tire circumferentially in its entirety.

In the drawings, the broken lines defining the inner bead depict environmental structure that forms no part of the claimed design. The broken lines in FIGS. 1-5 that define the boundary of the tread design from the remainder of the tire form no part thereof.

the grant prints no section headings; every part label below is ours, taken from that part's own first words
