ABSTRACT:
A tire tread pattern comprising a central zone and two edge zones in which the edge zones are subdivided circumferentially of the tire by a series of transverse grooves each having an axially outer end open to the tread edge characterized by in each transverse groove a noise baffle comprising a circumferentially extending rib across the groove and having a height of 25% to 75% of the groove depth. The noise baffle is preferably quite narro so that it does not materially affect the stiffness of the blocks but acts as a noise baffle only. It may be a single baffle or two or more short baffles interlocking to block noise transmission.
