In a tire with a tread that includes tread pattern elements, a circumferential reinforcement, and first and second circumferential grooves, the circumferential reinforcement is formed of a rubber mixture having a stiffness greater than a stiffness of a rubber mixture forming a remainder of the tread. The tire has an outer side on one side of a median plane of the tire, and an inner side on an opposite side of the median plane. The first circumferential groove is disposed axially toward the outer side relative to the second circumferential groove. The circumferential reinforcement includes a reinforcing element having a tapered shape positioned in each of a group of the tread pattern elements disposed axially toward the outer side relative to one of the first and second circumferential grooves, with the reinforcing elements being axially close to an outer-side face of that circumferential groove.
