The radially outermost one thereof comprises at least one undulation (412) radially on the outside of the points of the working layer (41) that are in line with the centre of the bottom face (243) of the major groove (24) closest to undulation (412).

The central rib comprises a portion (4111, 4121) made from a second rubber composition more than 50% filled with black, the axial width (LP) of said portion being greater than or equal to 20% of the axial width LC of the central rib. The first rubber composition has a tan δ0 value which is greater than the tan δ0 value of the second rubber composition, where tan δ0 denotes the tan δ value measured at a temperature of 0° C. and under a stress of 0.7 mPa.
