Abstract
Improved tires designed for use in an improved tire/vehicle system having two pneumatic front tires and two pneumatic rear tires are provided. The improved tire/vehicle system is especially effective on wet road surfaces. The front tire treads are each divided circumferentially into first, second, and third zones. The rear tire treads are divided circumferentially into four zones. Both the front and rear tires have tread groove patterns that are asymmetric and are especially configured for tires having negative camber.
