Abstract: A snow tire having radially spaced steel gripping teeth means which are exposed to contact with the icy surface when said tire is partially deflated and are recessed within the tire tread by fully inflating the tire. The tire is provided with a plurality of U-shaped steel loops which are radially spaced around the tire. The base of the loops are provided with a plurality of teeth members around the outer surface thereof, said base with teeth members being disposed within slots or recesses provided across the tread portion of the tire. By partially deflating the tire, the tread portion is retracted thereby allowing the teeth portion of the steel loops to contact the road or snow surface providing increased traction on said icy surfaces.
