A tire comprises a tread portion provided with at least one main groove extending continuously in the tire circumferential direction to axially divide the tread portion into land portions. The land portion is provided with axial grooves extending thereacross in the tire axial direction, and each comprising a radially outer portion and a radially inner portion which is wider than the radially outer portion. The radially outer portion of each of the axial grooves is crossed by one ore more sipes.

A wheel assembly to be coupled to a hub of a vehicle may include an inner rim to be coupled to the hub of the vehicle and an outer rim surrounding the inner rim. The wheel assembly may include gas springs operatively coupled between the inner rim and the outer rim and tread assemblies carried by the outer rim.

A wheel assembly may include an inner rim to be coupled to the hub of the vehicle, and an outer rim surrounding the inner rim. Gas springs may be operatively coupled between the inner rim and the outer rim and permitting relative movement therebetween. The wheel assembly may also include a sensor configured to sense the relative movement between the inner and outer rims.

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.

A pneumatic tire includes: a center main groove extending in a tire circumferential direction; a center land portion defined by the center main groove; a second land portion adjacent to the center land portion across the center main groove; and a second lug groove extending from the center main groove toward the second land portion in a tire lateral direction and defining the second land portion together with the center main groove; the center main groove including a center side edge portion corresponding to an edge portion on the center land portion side, the center side edge portion including a bent portion formed bent in a direction outwards in a groove width direction of the center main groove with an acute bend angle; and the second lug groove including an opening portion to the center main groove connected to the center main groove at a position opposing the bent portion.

A tread pattern of a pneumatic tire includes three or more circumferential main grooves extending in a tire circumferential direction, a plurality of lug grooves provided in a land portion defined by two circumferential main grooves, and a sipe provided between adjacent lug grooves. The sipe is a composite sipe having a two-dimensional portion and a three-dimensional portion. Among open ends on both sides of the lug groove, an open end on an identical side to an end portion of the sipe at which the two-dimensional portion is provided is provided with a raised bottom portion.

A tread pattern of a pneumatic tire includes two or more circumferential main grooves in a half region demarcated by the equatorial plane, and land portions defined by the circumferential main grooves. A center land portion closest among the land portions to the equatorial plane includes a center sipe extending in the width direction, the center sipe is a composite sipe including a two-dimensional portion and three-dimensional portions provided on both sides of the two-dimensional portion in the width direction, a middle land portion that is adjacent to an outer side of the center land portion in the width direction includes a middle sipe extending in the width direction, and the middle sipe is a composite sipe comprising a two-dimensional portion provided on an inner side in the width direction and a three-dimensional portion provided on an outer side of the two-dimensional portion in the width direction.

A pneumatic tire includes a land portion defined by two circumferential main grooves extending in the circumferential direction, lug grooves in the land portion, and a sipe between adjacent lug grooves. An outer side edge of the land portion in the width direction has a zigzag shape, and an inner side edge of the land portion in the width direction has a straight shape. The sipe extends continuously from the outer side edge to the inner side edge, and the sipe has a Z-shape with two bent portions, and a ratio of a distance in the width direction between a bent portion closer to a center line passing through a midpoint position of the land portion in the width direction and the center line to a width of the land portion in the width direction being 0 to 0.40.

A tread pattern of a pneumatic tire includes three or more circumferential main grooves extending in a tire circumferential direction, a land portion defined by the circumferential main grooves, and a sipe provided in the land portion. At least one edge of edges on both sides of the land portion in a tire width direction is a zigzag edge. The zigzag edge has a zigzag shape with recesses/protrusions that has a position periodically changing in the tire width direction. The sipe is a composite sipe including a two-dimensional portion and a three-dimensional portion, and the three-dimensional portion is connected to the zigzag edge.

A pneumatic tire includes alternating first and second groove portions. The first groove portion intersects an equator and extends in a width direction. The second groove portion inclines from the first groove portion to a tread edge at a smaller angle relative to a circumferential direction than an angle of the first groove portion relative to the circumferential direction. The first groove portion communicates with the second groove portion of the lug groove adjacent in the circumferential direction. The first groove portion is on a stepping side of each lug groove. The second groove portions are curved or bent and an average angle of the second groove portions in an inner region is smaller than in an outer region. Shallow grooves having a bent point are formed on blocks. The blocks are defined by circumferential narrow grooves connecting the second groove portions adjacent in the circumferential direction and the lug grooves.
