A pneumatic tire is mounted on a 5° rim. A bead core includes a bottom inclined 0°-5° in a direction in which the bottom diverges outward in the radial direction as the bottom extends from an inner side toward an outer side in the width direction. A bead includes a base, a toe, a heel, and a back surface. The heel connects to the back surface by an arc. The base includes a region between a core lower inner end position on an inner circumferential surface of the bead and being identical to a position of a bead core inner end and a core lower outer end position on an inner circumferential surface of the bead and being identical to a position of a bead core outer end in the width direction. The base has a curved line projecting toward the inner side in the radial direction in a cross-section.

TIRE AND RIM ASSEMBLY

A tire and rim assembly includes a rim having a pair of flanges, and a pneumatic tire being mounted onto the rim, the pneumatic tire including a pair of bead portions and a rim guard being provided on at least one of the pair of bead portions. In a cross-sectional view of the assembly under a standard state, the rim guard protrudes outwardly in a tire axial direction from a sidewall reference outer surface of the tire so as to cover over one of the pair of flanges. An angle θ of an imaginary rim guard straight line with respect to a tire radial direction is equal to or less than 40 degrees, and a maximum gap (A) in the tire radial direction between the one of the pair of flanges and the rim guard is equal to or less than 2.0 mm.

A motorcycle tire comprises bead portions each having an axially outer surface provided with a profile which comprises a radially inner portion and a radially outer portion. The radially inner portion is located axially outward of a bead core and extending substantially linearly in the tire radial direction. The radially outer portion is smoothly continued from the radially inner portion and extends radially outwardly to a sidewall portion, while inclining toward the axially outside. When an axial width between the bead portions is adjusted to coincide with a rim width between rim flanges, and an axial center of the axial width coincides with an axial center of the rim width, and further the tire rotational axis coincides with the rotational axis of the wheel rim, then at least a part of the radially outer portion of the profile protrudes axially outwardly from a profile of the inner surface of the rim flange.
