ABSTRACT:
A pneumatic tire design primarily for off road use has a pair of bead regions, a ground-engaging tread, and a pair of sidewalls between the beads and the tread. The inner tread surface between tread lugs and the tread edges has curvature in both the axial and circumferential directions. A series of projections are integral with a sidewall and are arranged in a circular pattern. Each projection is axially adjacent and axially outward of a portion of the inner tread surface and outwardly of the sidewall and is interposed between lateral tread lugs. The projections and lateral tread lugs are positioned to provide a means for deflecting radially directed debris away from the sidewalls. The sidewalls are protected without requiring circumferentially continuous projections.
