Tire including a high-contrast texture on the tread surface

A tire made of rubber material, comprising:

• a tread having a tread surface adapted to come into contact with a road surface when the tire is being driven on,
• the tread surface having, in cross section, a certain curvature,
• wherein the tread surface comprises, over at least 80% of its surface, a texture contrasting with the rest of the tire, the texture having a plurality of elements that protrude from or are recessed into the tread surface,
• wherein each element extends perpendicularly (θ=90°)to the tread surface along the curvature of this tread surface, and
• the texture has a lightness, known as first lightness L*1, of between 6 and 15, and the rest of the tire has a lightness, known as second lightness L*2, greater than or equal to 18 and less than or equal to 30.
