A tire-wheel assembly and a tire used in the tire-wheel assembly, the tire-wheel assembly includes the tire having a tread portion, a sidewall portion, and a bead portion, and a wheel on which the tire is mounted, the tire-wheel assembly configured such that electric power is wirelessly supplied from outside the tread portion in a tire radial direction to a power receiving device disposed inside the tread portion of the tire in the tire radial direction. The tread portion contains low-loss tread rubber having a loss tangent tan δ of 0.25 or less at 60° C., and a ratio Ts/Tb between a gauge Ts of the sidewall portion at a tire maximum width portion and a bead width Tb of a bead core at a center position in the tire radial direction is 15% or more and 60% or less.

Tire pattern structure

A tire pattern structure including a tread pattern and a sidewall pattern is formed by uniformly distributed patterns in the circumferential direction of a tire. The tread pattern is formed by two long spoon-shaped pattern blocks symmetrical with respect to the center of the tire tread and the axial direction of the tire. A spoon-shaped pattern block group is across the center of the tire tread and each interlaced and mapped sideway along the center of the tire tread formed by upper and lower long spoon-shaped pattern block groups. The two spoon-shaped patterns are coupled from a head block to a handle block and bent at the tire shoulder to couple the sidewall pattern formed by the upper and lower sidewall pattern blocks which are formed by a quadrilateral block of two protrusions and three recessed blocks to overcome rough terrains and provide excellent mud and water removing performance.
