In the tire, each shoulder land portion includes a groove wall portion forming a wall of a shoulder circumferential groove, and a cap portion located outward of the groove wall portion in an axial direction. A wear resistance index of the groove wall portion is lower than a wear resistance index of the cap portion. A ratio of a distance in the axial direction from an outer edge of the shoulder circumferential groove to a boundary between the groove wall portion and the cap portion on an outer surface of the shoulder land portion, to a width in the axial direction of the shoulder land portion, is not less than 20% and not greater than 30%.

A pneumatic tire for an electric vehicle includes a pair of bead areas, a ground-contacting tread disposed radially outwardly of the pair of bead areas, and a pair of sidewalls. Each sidewall extends from a respective bead area to the tread. The tread joins each sidewall at a respective shoulder and the shoulders include an inboard shoulder and an outboard shoulder. A radius on the inboard shoulder is larger than a radius on the outboard shoulder. Physical features are formed on the tread, and each feature is formed in the shape of a fin. The features increase air flow towards an electric vehicle motor located inboardly of the tire. At least one of the fins includes a leading edge formed with micro-features.

A motorcycle tire comprises a tread reinforcement including a jointless band ply. The jointless band ply has a developed width Wa of not more than 65% of the developed tread width TWe. The tread portion has a tread profile comprising a crown arc portion having a radius R1 of curvature and a pair of shoulder arc portions having a radius R2 of curvature. The radius R1 is smaller than the radius R2 and smaller than 50% of the maximum tire cross-section width Wt. In a normal state of the tire, the axial ends of the crown arc portion are respectively positioned axially inward of the outer edges of the jointless band ply.

A motorcycle tire comprises a carcass and a tread reinforcing layer. The tread reinforcing layer comprises a belt and a band. The band is composed of a jointless band ply having a developed width less than 65% of the developed tread width. The belt is composed of at least one belt ply having a developed width of 65% or more of the developed tread width. At first positions, the intersecting angle between the belt cords and the carcass cords is 20 to 60 degrees. In the tread portion in a tire meridional cross sectional view, a single arc passing through a point on the tread surface at the tire equator and two points on the tread surface at the tread edges has a radius of not more than 0.7 times the maximum tire cross-section width.

A pneumatic tire includes, in a tread portion, a belt layer including a circumferential belt layer with a belt cord disposed along a circumferential direction; and belt plies having a larger lateral direction dimension than a lateral direction dimension of the circumferential belt layer. A gauge from a surface of the tread portion to the belt layer is equal on a vehicle outer side and a vehicle inner side where the circumferential belt layer is disposed.
