This invention relates to a rubber composition comprised of at least one diene-based elastomer and rubber reinforcement comprised of fibrillated aramid fiber micropulp and reinforcing filler comprised of pre-hydrophobated precipitated silica. Such fibrillated aramid micropulp is comprised of micronized fibrillated aramid fiber pulp. Such pre-hydrophobated precipitated silica is comprised of precipitated silica pre-treated with at least one of bis(3-trialkylsilylalkyl) polysulfide, alkoxyorganomercaptosilane, optionally together with an alkylsilane. The invention further relates to such rubber composition wherein said reinforcing filler is comprised of a combination of said pre-hydrophobated precipitated silica as a precipitated silica pre-treated with an alkoxyorganomercaptosilane and a precipitated silica wherein said pre-hydrophobated precipitated silica and said precipitated silica are both hydrophobated in situ within the rubber composition with a bis(3-trialkoxysilylalkyl) polysulfide. The invention further relates to tires containing at least one component comprised of such rubber composition such as for example a tire tread.
