REIFEN MIT SPRITZUMLENKVORRICHTUNG

Tire having a tread, sidewalls axially and radially extending towards the inside of the tread, the tread having a running surface, intended to be in contact with the ground during running, and axially lateral faces on either side of the tread, this tire having, furthermore, at least on one of the sidewalls and near the tread, a circumferential rib intended to modify the height of expelled water in the transverse direction (corresponding to a direction parallel to the rotation axis of the tire) in the case of the tire running on wet ground. The circumferential rib comprises a deflector device for deflecting the stream of expelled water in the case of the tire running on water-covered ground, this deflector device being formed from a plurality of protuberances projecting from the circumferential rib and being arranged in an oblique direction with respect to the transverse direction. The circumferential rib further includes a plurality of studs for reducing the power of the stream when the tire is running on water-covered ground, these studs being placed between the protuberances of the deflector device.
