The noise-reducing tread pattern includes a plurality of tread elements, with the tread elements having a first pitch length (1), a second pitch length (2), or a third pitch length (3). The noise-reducing tread pattern includes one of the following circumferential configurations: a circumferential row including 40 pitches, with 13 occurrences of “1,” 13 occurrences of “2,” and 14 occurrences of “3;” a circumferential row including 38 pitches, with 10 occurrences of “1,” 19 occurrences of “2,” and 9 occurrences of “3;” a circumferential row including 42 pitches, with 10 occurrences of “1,” 19 occurrences of “2,” and 13 occurrences of “3;” and a circumferential row including 44 pitches, with 11 occurrences of “1,” 20 occurrences of “2,” and 13 occurrences of “3.”
