PNEUMATIC TIRE

An outer diameter of the pneumatic tire is 350 mm or more and 600 mm or less, and as RW is defined by a rim width of a rim wheel assembled to the pneumatic tire and SW is defined by a tire width of the pneumatic tire, the relation of 0.78≤RW/SW≤0.99 is satisfied, and at least two circumferential main grooves extending to the tire circumferential direction are formed in the tread. The circumferential main groove is formed closer to a tire equatorial line than an outer end in the tire width direction of the belt layer.

A pneumatic radial tire for passenger vehicles of the present disclosure includes a carcass toroidally spanning between a pair of bead portions and including plies of radially arranged cords. A sectional width SW and an outer diameter OD of the tire satisfy a predetermined relational expression. The noise reducer is provided on an inner surface of the tire at least in the center region and the shoulder regions. Among thicknesses of the noise reducer measured in a direction perpendicular to the inner surface of the tire, a maximum thickness Tc in the center region is larger than a maximum thickness Ts in the shoulder regions.

WHEEL COMPONENT IN PARTICULAR FOR BICYCLES

A wheel component for sports and racing bicycles with an annular tire and a central tread surface, which in proper use in straight-ahead travel on a plane ground circumferentially makes contact with the surface of the ground, and which opens up a central longitudinal sectional plane. Planar aero elements are configured on the surface of the annular tire, laterally spaced apart from the longitudinal sectional plane. The aero elements are configured as depressions in the surface of the tire and are disposed on the side surfaces and define angular bands rotating on the side surfaces. The surface proportion of the aero elements to the surface of an angular band is larger than 5% and less than 25%.

The pneumatic tire includes a carcass layer, a belt layer disposed on an outer side of the carcass layer in a radial direction, and a tread rubber disposed on an outer side of the belt layer in the radial direction. Additionally, the carcass layer has a cord angle of 80° or more and 100° or less. Additionally, the belt layer is formed by layering a first reinforcing belt, a second reinforcing belt that is narrower than the first reinforcing belt, and an auxiliary belt that is spaced apart from a tire equatorial plane and disposed between the carcass layer and the first reinforcing belt. Additionally, the first reinforcing belt has a cord angle of 11° or more and 30° or less, the second reinforcing belt has a cord angle of 1° or more and 11° or less, and the auxiliary belt has a cord angle of 55° or more and 70° or less.
