The present invention relates to tires and vehicular tracks having minimal-marking rubber treads and particularly to skid steering, fixed axle, tire/wheel or track assemblies where said tire or vehicular track has a minimal-marking tread. In particular, such rubber tread has a surface intended to be ground-contacting which is also intended to be minimal-marking and having suitable physical properties for a tire tread.

An elastomeric adhesive composition or cushion which binds various elastomeric layers together is solventless and comprises a blend of a bis-imide compound, one or more elastomers, and a tackifier. The elastomeric adhesive has strong blowout protection and can be utilized to form a laminate of a buffed cured tire carcass carcass to a cured or uncured tire tread.
