FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the tire tread of our design;

FIG. 2 is a front view of the tread of our design;

FIG. 3 is a side elevational view of the tire tread of our design;

FIG. 4 is a side elevational view of the tire tread of our design, taken from the opposite side of that shown in FIG. 3 ; and,

FIG. 5 is an enlarged, partial view of FIG. 1 .

In the drawings, the broken lines depict environmental subject matter that forms no part of the claimed design. The dash-dot lines represent the peripheral boundary between the claimed tire tread and the unclaimed sidewall. The tread pattern is understood to repeat uniformly throughout the circumference of the tire, as shown schematically in solid lines.

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