Front and rear tire combination for vehicle having ABS and vehicle

A vehicle comprising front tires and rear tires, an anti-lock brake system for controlling slip rates of the front tires and rear tires so that said slip rates are within a range of from 5% to 10% and the slip rate of the rear tires is smaller than the slip rate of the front tires,

• each of the tires having a tread pattern comprising a plurality of tread elements divided by tread grooves, and having a tread pattern rigidity P of from 70-200 kgf/mm sq. cm,
• the rear tires each having a tread pattern rigidity Pr,
• the front tires each having a tread pattern rigidity Pf,
• and the tread pattern rigidity Pr being more than 1.1 times the tread pattern rigidity Pf,
• wherein the tread pattern rigidity P (Pr, Pf) is defined as a quotient of the total of circumferential rigidity of all the tread elements existing in a ground contacting region of the tire which is divided by the area of the ground contacting region, and
• the circumferential rigidity K of each tread element is defined as a quotient of a tangential force F in kgf received at the ground contacting region which is divided by a displacement y in mm at the ground contacting region,
• the tread pattern of the front tire being the substantially same as the tread pattern of the rear tire except that the number of sipes in the front tire is larger than the number of sipes in the rear tire, and wherein the tread pattern of the front tire and the tread pattern of the rear tire are block patterns.
