A pneumatic tire includes protrusion portions projecting from and extending along a tire side portion, the protrusion portions being disposed on an outer side in a tire radial direction in an placement region that is a region from a position of 15% to a position of 85% of a tire cross-sectional height from a reference position on an inner side in the tire radial direction of the tire cross-sectional height, and including a first extending portion extending along the tire side portion in a single arc shape or a single straight shape, the first extending portion having a length within a range of no less than 1.0 and no more 6.0 times a height in the tire radial direction of the placement region, and the tire side portion having a thickness at a tire maximum width position within from 2 mm to 9 mm.

A pneumatic tire includes protrusion portions formed on, extending along, and projecting from at least one tire side portion, the protrusion portions including at least one bend portion at a position where a direction in which the protrusion portion extends changes, and also including extending portions defined by the bend portion. Where the extending portion disposed on an outermost side in the radial direction among the extending portions is taken to be a first extending portion, a highest extending portion that is the extending portion in which an average extending portion height that is an average height from the tire side portion of each extending portion is highest is any one of the extending portions other than the first extending portion. The tire side portion has a thickness at a tire maximum width position within a range of no less than 2 mm and no more than 9 mm.

In this pneumatic tire, the bead core has a predetermined wire array structure obtained by arranging wire cross-sections of bead wires in a cross-sectional view in a tire meridian direction. The following are defined in the wire array structure: a tangent line that contacts, from the side of a rim fitting face, an innermost layer in the tire radial direction and the wire cross-section on the innermost side and the outermost side in the tire lateral direction; contact points of the tangent line with respect to the wire cross-sections on the innermost side and the outermost side; a middle point of the contact points; and gauges in the tire radial direction from the contact points and middle point to the rim fitting face. In this case, the change rates of the gauges before and after rim assembly each are in the range of 10% to 60%.

A tire 2 includes a tread 4, a pair of sidewalls 6, a pair of beads 10, a carcass 12, a belt 14, an inner liner 20, and a pair of insertion layers 22 disposed between the carcass 12 and the inner liner 20. Each insertion layer 22 is disposed between an end of the belt 14 and an end PB of the bead 10. Each insertion layer 22 has a volume resistivity of less than 10.sup.8 Ω.Math.cm. A complex elastic modulus of the insertion layer 22 is equivalent to or higher than a complex elastic modulus of the inner liner 20. A thickness of each sidewall 6 at a maximum width position PW is not greater than 5.0 mm.

In a pneumatic tire, bead cores have a wire arrangement. In a cross-sectional view in a tire meridian direction, a tangential line and a contact point are defined. The tangential line contacts an innermost layer in a radial direction and the wire cross sections innermost and outermost in a lateral direction in the wire arrangement from a rim fitting surface side. The contact point of the tangent line is on the wire cross section on the outermost side. A gauge Wh in the lateral direction from the contact point to the rim fitting surface and an outer diameter φ of the bead wire have a relationship 2.0≤Wh/φ≤15.0. A radial height H2 of a contact portion between a body portion and a turned back portion of a carcass layer has a relationship 0.80≤H2/H1≤3.00 to a radial height H1 of the bead cores.

A tire includes a tire frame member that has bead portions in which bead cores are embedded in a resin material and side portions that comprise the resin material and are continuous with tire radial direction outer sides of the bead portions, wherein assuming that T1 is a thickness of thick-walled portions of the tire frame member that are adjacent to the tire radial direction outer sides of the bead cores and that T2 is a thickness of the side portions, T1>T2, a thickness of the tire frame member decreases from T1 to T2 between the thick-walled portions and the side portions, and a position at which the thickness of the tire frame member starts to decrease from T1 to T2 is on a tire radial direction outer side of tire radial direction outer ends of rim flanges of a rim on which the bead portions are mounted.

A pneumatic tire comprises a carcass which comprises a carcass ply composed of a main portion extending between bead portions and a pair of turned-up portions turned-up around respective bead cores. The bead portion is provided with: a primary bead apex rubber disposed between the carcass-ply main portion and the carcass-ply turned-up portion; an insulation rubber layer extending radially outwardly through between the carcass-ply main portion and the carcass-ply turned-up portion; and a subsidiary bead apex rubber layer disposed on the axially outside of the carcass-ply turned-up portion. The radially outer edge of the insulation rubber layer is located radially outside the radially outer edge of the subsidiary bead apex rubber layer. The complex elastic modulus of the insulation rubber layer is equal to or greater than the complex elastic modulus of the topping rubber of the carcass ply.

A pneumatic tire includes a tread portion, a pair of sidewall portions, a pair of bead portions each having a bead core embedded therein, and a carcass extending between the bead portions in a toroidal manner. A buttress portion of at least one of the pair of the sidewall portions is provided with at least one raised portion protruding outward in a tire axial direction. The carcass includes a main body portion and a pair of turned up portions. In the sidewall portion which is provided with the at least one raised portion, the turned up portion is arranged so as to overlap with the raised portion in the tire radial direction. A length in the tire radial direction of an overlapping portion of the turned up portion and the raised portion is 5% or more and 40% or less of a tire section height.
