A tire comprises a rubber composition based on at least an elastomer matrix comprising 20 to 70 phr of a first diene elastomer bearing at least one SiOR function, R being a hydrogen atom or a hydrocarbon radical, the SiOR function not located at the chain ends of the first diene elastomer, 20 to 70 phr of a second diene elastomer which is a polyisoprene, and optionally, 0 to 20 phr of a third diene elastomer; and a reinforcing filler comprising a reinforcing inorganic filler.

Tire comprising a rubber composition

A tire having a tread comprising at least two radially superposed portions which comprise a radially external portion intended to come into contact with ground during rolling, the radially external portion being made of a first rubber composition, and a radially internal portion made of a second rubber composition; wherein the first rubber composition is based on at least an elastomer matrix; and a reinforcing filler comprising between 40 and 200 phr of a reinforcing inorganic filler; wherein the second rubber composition is based on at least: an elastomer matrix comprising 20 to 70 phr of a first diene elastomer bearing at least one SiOR function, R being a hydrogen atom or a hydrocarbon radical, 20 to 70 phr of a second diene elastomer which is polyisoprene, and comprising no third diene elastomer or at most 20 phr; a reinforcing filler comprising a reinforcing inorganic filler.

Tire comprising a tread

A rubber composition usable as tread for a winter tire, having a high grip on melting ice, comprising at least one diene elastomer such as natural rubber and/or a polybutadiene, more than 30 phr of a liquid plasticizing agent, between 50 and 150 phr of a reinforcing filler such as silica and/or carbon black, and between 5 and 40 phr of magnesium sulphate microparticles.
