Motor vehicle tire with a tread profile for a superior grip on snow and ice

• wherein a plurality of incisions (E1, E2, E3) that essentially extend parallel to one another are arranged within profile positives, each incision comprising main sections (EH),
• wherein the distance (a) between the main sections (EH) of adjacent incisions (E) of the same profile positive is constant or deviates by no more than 20%,
• wherein the average distance (am) between two adjacent incisions (E) lies between 3 mm and 7 mm,
• wherein each of the incisions (E) contain at least one staggered section (EV) joined to the main sections (EH) so as to define a stair shape when viewed from the top, the staggered section (EV) being almost perpendicular to the main sections (EH), and
• wherein the length (lEV) of the staggered section (EV) amounts to no more than half the length (lEH) of each main section (EH) of the incision (E), wherein
• the staggered sections (EV) are offset relative to one another in adjacent incisions (E1, E2) of the same profile positive,
• such that a rubber web (G) is respectively situated between said staggered sections (EV), wherein the length of the rubber web transverse to the length of the two adjacent main sections (EH1, EH2) of the adjacent incisions only lies between 30% and 70% of the distance (a) between the main sections (EH1, EH2) of the adjacent incisions at a location spaced from the rubber web.
