I would describe it as a wear indicator rather than tread!

Don't put your tyres on backwards, no matter what snottyotter says. Instead, put the wheel on the wrong way around. This is much more elegant and achieves two purposes in one go.

Fiery death then. A lot of people run gatorskins backwards as the directional arrow is more difficult to find than the small amount of tread on the sides and they go in the opposite direction to what you'd probably assume they should go based on the tread.
