(tan δ)/(D/d)*1000≤5.5.

A pneumatic tire includes a pair of bead cores; a pair of bead fillers; a carcass ply that is suspended between the pair of bead cores; a side wall rubber that is arranged on a tire-outer-surface-side of the carcass ply and constitutes a tire outer surface; a chafer layer that is rolled up from a tire-inner-surface-side to the tire-outer-surface-side of the carcass ply around the bead cores and the bead fillers; and a pad rubber that is arranged between the side wall rubber and the carcass ply to be adjacent to a rolled-up end of the chafer layer in a tire width direction, the pad rubber having a modulus value higher than that of the side wall rubber. The pad rubber includes a constant thickness portion having a substantially constant thickness over a range of 7% or more but not exceeding 26% of a tire reference cross-section height.

A tire includes a pattern portion on a surface of a sidewall portion. The pattern portion includes an outer pattern and an inner pattern. The outer pattern includes a plurality of outer ridges disposed concentrically around a first point on a tire circumferential line on an outer side in a tire radial direction and extending toward a second point, on the tire circumferential line, which is different from the first point. The inner pattern includes a plurality of inner ridges disposed concentrically around the second point on an inner side in the tire radial direction and extending toward the first point. Each of the outer ridges connects with one of the inner ridges on the tire circumferential line.

The present invention is directed to a tire comprising a tread, two sidewalls, a carcass and at least two belts arranged radially between the carcass and the tread in a crown area of the tire. The tread has at least one axially outer edge portion covering the axially outermost edge of at least one of the belts and comprising a different rubber composition than a portion of the tread neighboring the axially outer edge portion of the tread. Furthermore, one of the sidewalls at least partially covers and contacts the axially outer surface of the axially outer edge portion of the tread.

A pneumatic tire according to the present invention includes a first marking part provided on a surface of a first sidewall on one side in a tire axial direction and a second marking part provided on a surface of a second sidewall on the other side in the tire axial direction. The first marking part has a concave shape recessed from the surface of the first sidewall and the second marking part has a convex shape protruding from the surface of the second sidewall. The second marking part is provided at a position overlapping with the first marking part in the tire axial direction.

A pneumatic tire has paired bead portions, paired sidewall portions, a tread portion, a plurality of lug grooves extending from a shoulder area of the tread portion to reach a buttress area of the sidewall portion, and a block defined by the plurality of lug grooves. The block includes a shoulder block provided in the shoulder area and a buttress block provided in the buttress area. At least some of the plurality of lug grooves end at a connecting portion connecting the paired buttress blocks, the connecting portion is provided on an inner side in the tire diametrical direction of position that are 50% of length in the tire diametrical direction of the buttress block from upper end position of the buttress block. A step or a protrusion where the buttress block has a largest upraised height is provided in the tire diametrical position of the connecting portion.

Provided is a tire having excellent rolling resistance and improved pass-by noise performance. The tire is a pneumatic tire comprising a side rubber provided on an outer side of a carcass in a tire width direction, in a sidewall portion, wherein a thickness of the side rubber in the tire width direction at a tire maximum width position is 1 mm or more, and a ratio 0° C. tan δ/30° C. tan δ of 0° C. tan δ to 30° C. tan δ of the side rubber is 2.00 or more, where the 0° C. tan δ is tan δ at 10 Hz and 0° C., and the 30° C. tan δ is tan δ at 10 Hz and 30° C.
