VEHICLE TYRE WITH A CONTRASTING STRUCTURE SURFACE AND METHOD OF MAKING A MOULD

Vehicle tire (1) with sidewalls (2) and a tread (3) and with at least one contrast structure surface (4) on an outer surface (2,3), in particular on one of the sidewalls (2) and/or the tread (3), wherein a contrast structure (5) with hatching ribs (6,7) each having a ridge (8,9) is formed on the contrast structure surface (4). [0002] The object is to influence the contrast effect in a more targeted manner and to further improve it and to provide simple manufacturability of a corresponding molding tool. [0003] This is achieved in that the contrast structure (5) has crossing areas (11), wherein a crossing area (11) is precisely the area in which a second hatching rib (7) of the hatching ribs (6,7) is arranged overlappingly crossing a first hatching rib (6) of the hatching ribs (6,7) in such a way that the ridge (9) of the second hatching rib (7) and the ridge (8) of the first hatching rib (6) cross in plan view and that a contour of the second hatching rib (7) within the crossing area (11) has a local maximum (12). The invention further relates to a method for manufacturing a molding tool.
