Pneumatic tires for vehicles
DRIVE
May 11, 2005
The tire for use in winter has peripheral treads made up of blocks separated by large incisions (7, 7a, 7b) from opposite edges of the tread, forming a meandering configuration. Smaller incisions (8a, 8b) at right angles to the larger ones, project in opposite directions into the gaps between them. These incisions are staggered along the larger ones.
