A tire (1) having a tread (10) with from one to three tread pattern elements (MA, MB, LC) distributed over one revolution of a wheel. Each tread pattern element has first and second portions positioned on either side of an equatorial plane (C). Each portion of each tread pattern element has at least one main sipe (85) having the curvature of said portion, and substantially parallel to its edges, the main sipe (85) extends continuously from a first axial edge (24G, 24D) on a first side of the equatorial plane (C) to a connection point (90) situated in a main void (80) on a second side of the equatorial plane (C), the main void (85) extending to a second edge (24G, 24D) of the tread (10); the axial width of the main sipe (85) represents from 52% to 63% of the axial width of the tread (10).
