Tires with improved grip and additional puncture protection

摘要

The invention relates to a tire, in particular a car tire or a tire for a light truck with special tread structures in the region of the shoulders of the tire. Thus, in one embodiment, an upper sidewall region has an at least substantially U-shaped sidewall lug element. In another embodiment, an upper side wall region has an at least substantially peak-shaped, projecting, tip-shaped or vertex-shaped side wall lug element. Both elements can also be realized together.
