Vehicle tyre, notably winter tyre, the tread of which contains a rubber composition that is thermally expandable in the non-vulcanized state, expanded in the vulcanized state; in the non-vulcanized state, said composition contains a diene elastomer such as natural rubber and/or a polybutadiene, more than 50 phr of a reinforcing filler such as silica and/or carbon black, between 5 and 25 phr of microparticles of a sodium or potassium (hydrogen) carbonate having a median particle size by weight of between 1 and 50 µm, between 2 and 20 phr of a carboxylic acid the melting point of which is between 60°C and 220°C, such as citric acid or stearic acid for example, the total (hydrogen) carbonate and carboxylic acid content being higher than 10 phr, preferably higher than 15 phr. The combined use of the latter two compounds, at the recommended high contents, allows a great improvement to the grip of the tyre on melting ice without penalizing the rate at which this thermally expandable rubber composition is cured.
