Tire with component of carbon black rich rubber composition which contains alkylphenoxypoly (alkyleneoxy) alkanol

A pneumatic rubber tire having a sidewall with a visually observable outer surface comprised of a carbon black rich rubber composition, wherein said rubber composition comprises, based on 100 parts by weight rubber (phr) and to the exclusion of paraffin wax;

• (A) at least one diene-based elastomer comprised of cis 1,4-polyisoprene rubber and cis 1,4-butadiene rubber,
• (B) reinforcing filler of from about 30 to about 80 phr of carbon black and about 5 to about 80 phr of precipitated silica, and
• (C) about 1 to about 10 phr of a nonylphenoxypolyethyleneoxy ethanol of the formula (I):
• wherein the number of ethyleneoxy repeat units (n) is an average of about 20;
• wherein said rubber composition contains a coupling agent for said silica having a moiety reactive with hydroxyl groups contained on said silica and another moiety interactive with said diene-based elastomer;
• wherein said tire sidewall contains a film of said nonylphenoxypolyethyleneoxy ethanol on an outer, visible surface thereof formed by migration of said nonylphenoxypolyethyleneoxy ethanol from its dispersion in the rubber composition of said component to the outer, visible, rubber surface of said tire component in a manner to mask an appearance of rubber processing oil contained within the rubber composition of said tire component which has also migrated to a visible surface thereof.
