A tire for mounting to a transport vehicle including a base tire and a skin. The skin includes a predetermined pattern mounted thereon that is positioned on an external peripheral surface of the skin. The base tire and the skin are constructed of a predetermined rubber composition. The skin includes at least about nine percent (9%) by weight of reinforcing fibers and the base tire includes less than about three percent (3%) by weight of reinforcing fibers. An adhesive membrane inhibitor is positioned between the base tire and the skin to generally prevent migration of contaminating materials from the base tire into the skin and, more particularly from the base tire into the predetermined pattern of the skin.
