Abstract
A tire includes a circumferentially continuous decoupling groove that extends radially inward toward the rotational axis of the tire. The decoupling groove is formed by inner and outer walls that are axially spaced apart from each other and joined by a base wall interconnecting inner radial portions thereof. A width between the inner and outer walls of the decoupling groove varies over a radial depth of the decoupling groove. The inner wall extends at an angle of approximately 5° from a radial plane disposed perpendicular to the rotational axis of the tire.
