This invention relates to a new and original design for tires; and it consists, generally stated, in the shape and configuration of the tire, as will hereinafter be more fully set forth and claimed.

The tire embodying my new and original design is formed with a base or seat portion A and convergent side walls B, which, meeting, form a pointed or sharp tread portion (J, the tire being substantially triangular in cross-section.

Each side of the tire is ornamented by two concentric annular concavities I) and b, the outer edge of the concavity b terminating at the base of the tread portion.

The essential features of the design are the convergent side walls configured substantially as herein shown and described.
