Patent attributes
Tire tread has a central rib (411-413) and two lateral ribs (421-422) which are separated by circumferential grooves (141-144). A first lateral rib (421) adjacent to the outer axial edge of the tread and a central rib have a first portion (4211, 4111, 4121, 4131) the axial width of which exceeds 20% of the axial width of the relevant rib made from a first rubber composition containing an elastomer and a reinforcing filler consisting predominantly of carbon black, and an axially adjacent second portion (4212, 4112, 4122, 4132) made of a second rubber composition containing an elastomer and a reinforcing filler a minority proportion of which consists of carbon black. The second rubber composition has a tan d0 value which is less than the tan d0 value of the first rubber composition, the tan d0 values being measured at a temperature of 0 C and under a stress of 0.7 MPa.
