Abstract
A low-noise tire () for a heavy-duty vehicle, having a tread () having at least two juxtaposed complex circumferential cuts () which are separated from one another by a circumferential row of raised elements (). Each complex circumferential cut () has an alternation of external cavities (), which are distributed at a circumferential pitch (Pc), and of internal cavities (). Pairs of raised elements () are separated by sipes (), having two ends (I, I), and distributed at a circumferential pitch (Pi). The circumferential distance (Di) between the respective two ends (I, I) of any sipe () is equal to the circumferential pitch (Pi) of the sipes (), and the circumferential pitch (Pc) of the external cavities () is equal to the circumferential pitch (Pi) of the sipes ().
