Pneumatic tire
A tire includes a tread portion, a sidewall portion, and a bead portion. The bead portion includes a bead core that extends continuously in an annular shape in a tire circumferential direction, and a bead filler disposed adjacent to the bead core and outside the bead core in a tire radial direction. Reinforcing cords are provided in the bead portion and the sidewall portion so as to be curved such that inclination angles of the reinforcing cords with respect to the tire circumferential direction gradually increase with nearness to an outside in the tire radial direction.
Run flat tire
A run flat tire having a side reinforcing rubber part is disclosed. The side reinforcing rubber part is formed by a rubber composition having a ratio (M50H/M50N) of tensile stress (M50H) in 50% elongation at a measurement temperature of 100° C. to tensile stress (M50N) in 50% elongation at a measurement temperature of 23° C. of from 1.0 to 1.3. A cushion rubber layer interposed between the side reinforcing rubber part and a bead filler is provided, and tensile stress in 50% elongation at a measurement temperature of 23° C. of a rubber composition forming the cushion rubber layer is larger than tensile stress in 50% elongation at a measurement temperature of 23° C. of the rubber composition forming the side reinforcing rubber part, and is smaller than tensile stress in 50% elongation at a measurement temperature of 23° C. of a rubber composition forming the bead filler.

PNEUMATIC TIRE
An object of the invention is to provide a pneumatic tire having excellent durability. In the pneumatic tire, a content of sulfur (US) in a rubber composition (U) used in an upper bead filler, a content of sulfur (LS) in a rubber composition (L) used in a lower bead filler, and a content of sulfur (PS) in a rubber composition (P) used in a pad satisfy the following Expression (1) and Expression (2).
4.0<LS-US<7.0 Expression (1)
4.0<LS-PS<7.0 Expression (2)

Truck tire with contention armature overlap
A heavy truck tire is provided that includes a tread and a casing. The casing has a bead with a bead core having padding gum and a rod with a perimeter. A contention armature surrounds the bead core and has an overlap, a majority of which is located outward in the radial direction from the rod. The padding gum is arranged in relation to the rod such that an outer area, inner area, and an axially outer area of the padding gum have areas that are greater than or equal to 20% of the area of the perimeter of the rod. An axially inner area of the padding gum is greater than or equal to 10% of the area of the perimeter of the rod.
TIRE, TIRE MOLD, AND TIRE PRODUCTION METHOD
A tire 2 includes a bead portion 2B to be fitted onto a rim R. The bead portion 2B includes a first vent line 50 extending in a circumferential direction, a second vent line 52 located outward of the first vent line 50 and extending in the circumferential direction, a columnar protrusion 54 located outward of the second vent line 52, and a saw cut 56 extending between the first vent line 50 and the columnar protrusion 54 and intersecting the second vent line 52. The first vent line 50, the second vent line 52, the columnar protrusion 54, and the saw cut 56 project from an outer surface of the bead portion 2B. The second vent line 52 is located on the columnar protrusion 54 side with respect to a midpoint LC between the first vent line 50 and the columnar protrusion 54.
TIRE WITH BEAD REGIONS HAVING MULTIPLE BEAD FILLERS
A tire includes a bead portion with a bead core having a main bead filler and an auxiliary bead filler, and a carcass ply wrapped around a portion of the main bead filler. An end of the carcass ply is located axially outside the main bead filler and radially below an apex of the main bead filler. The auxiliary bead filler is located axially outside the carcass ply end, with an apex of the auxiliary bead filler being located above an apex of the main bead filler.
