  "textContent": "A pneumatic tire has a tread (108) designed primarily for off-road activities, comprising large lugs. The tread (108) can be defined as having a central tread width that is divided into a central tread zone (A) and opposing lateral tread zones (B, C). The tire also has shoulder regions (S) extending from each lateral tread zone (B, C). The tread (108) itself has a plurality of tread elements (26, 28) separated by lateral grooves (30) in the lateral tread zones (B, C). The lateral grooves (30) in the lateral tread zones (B, C) are protected by elongated pads (52), the pads (52) extending from between a pair of the tread elements (26, 28) and into a shoulder region (S) of the tire. Each pad (52) has a radial height (Hp) less than the adjacent tread elements (26, 28) and has a base width (Wp) of at least 50% of the width (Wp) of the lateral grooves (30).",
