The present invention relates to a tire comprising a tread, a crown with a crown reinforcement, two sidewalls, two beads, a carcass reinforcement anchored to the two beads and extending from one sidewall to the other, in which the tread comprises at least one thermoplastic elastomer, said thermoplastic elastomer being a block copolymer comprising at least one elastomer block of optionally hydrogenated butadiene/styrene random copolymer type and at least one thermoplastic block of styrene type, and the total content of thermoplastic elastomer being within a range varying from 65 to 100 phr (parts by weight per hundred parts of elastomer).
A tire comprising a tread, a crown with a crown reinforcement, two sidewalls, two beads, a carcass reinforcement anchored to the two beads and extending from one sidewall to the other, wherein the tread comprises at least one thermoplastic elastomer and optionally at least one non-thermoplastic elastomer, said thermoplastic elastomer being a block copolymer comprising at least one elastomer block of hydrogenated butadiene/styrene random copolymer type and at least one thermoplastic block of styrene type, and the total content of thermoplastic elastomer being within a range varying from 65 to 100 phr per total elastomer in the tread,
