Provided is a pneumatic tire in which the electrical resistance of the whole tire can be lowered even when the rolling resistance is further reduced by further improving a low loss of a case member of the tire. The pneumatic tire has, as its skeleton, a carcass (1) composed of at least one carcass ply, and includes: a tread rubber (13G) arranged on a tire radial-direction outer side of the carcass (1) in a crown portion; a conductive rubber portion (5) arranged in such a manner to penetrate through the tread rubber from a ground-contact region of a tire surface toward a tire radial-direction inner side; and a rubber chafer (3) arranged on a tire width-direction outer surface of each of the bead portions. In this pneumatic tire, a conductive member (6), which electrically connects from a tire radial-direction inner end of the conductive rubber portion to the rubber chafer, is arranged; the conductive member includes conductive fibers (7) at least in the vicinity of the tire radial-direction inner end of the conductive rubber portion and the vicinity of the rubber chafer; and the conductive member has a volume resistivity of 110.sup.8 .Math.cm or lower.

A pneumatic tire with a bead filler has a side wall curved at both sides of a tread that is a thick rubber layer that comes in direct contact with a road surface, a bead core seated on a rim of a vehicle, and a bead part having a difference of rubber hardness. The pneumatic tire includes a carcass that is an internal frame of the tire and is provided to be turned up around the bead core of the bead part, in which the bead part includes: a first bead filler that is surrounded by the carcass and a turned-up carcass inside the tire; and a second bead filler that is disposed between the outer side of the turned-up carcass, the side wall, and the rim, and is applied with multiple rubber layers composed of different kinds of rubber layers to reduce weight and improve rolling resistance.

In the tire 2, fillers 10 are layered over clinches 8 in portions outward of a carcass 14 in the axial direction. A carcass ply 50 is turned up around cores 44. Turned-up portions 50a are disposed between the fillers 10 and apexes 46. Each clinch 8 has a maximum thickness Tcx that is measured along a line normal to an inner surface, in the axial direction, of the clinch 8. A ratio of a thickness Tf1 of the filler 10 to a sum of the thickness Tf1 and the thickness Tcx is greater than or equal to 0.1 and not greater than 0.6. A percentage of a complex elastic modulus E*f of the filler 10 relative to a complex elastic modulus E*a of the apex 46 is greater than or equal to 70% and not greater than 125%.

A pneumatic tire includes a bead core, a bead filler located outside in a tire radial direction of the bead core, a carcass ply laid over between bead cores and bead fillers which are provided in a pair in the tire width direction respectively, a belt wound on an outside in the tire radial direction of the carcass ply, a tread portion located outside in the tire radial direction of the belt, and a sidewall portion located outside in the tire width direction of the carcass ply. A thickness dimension of the tire side portion is set to increase as proceeding from a tire maximum width position toward an outside in the tire radial direction.

Provided is a pneumatic tire comprising a pair of bead fillers located on opposite sides of a tire equatorial plane, comprising resin materials, respectively, and formed asymmetrically with each other relative to the tire equatorial plane.

A pneumatic tire has a turned-up carcass ply and a non-turnup carcass ply. The turned-up carcass ply is turned up around bead cores in respective bead portions from the inside to outside of the tire so as to form a pair of turned up portions extending radially outwardly on the axially outsides of the respective bead cores, and a main portion extending between the turned up portions. The non-turnup carcass ply extends between the bead portions and terminates to have edges positioned on the axially outsides of the respective turned up portions. The bead portions are each provided on its outer surface with vent lines protruding therefrom and extending continuously in the tire circumferential direction. The vent lines include a radially outer vent line formed radially outside the edges of the non-turnup carcass ply, and a radially inner vent line formed radially inside the edges of the non-turnup carcass ply.

A pneumatic tire has a carcass layer, a side wall rubber which forms an outer surface of a side wall portion, and a rim strip rubber which forms an outer surface of a bead portion. The rim strip rubber extends in a tire radial direction between the carcass layer and the side wall rubber. A height of the rim strip rubber on the basis of an outer diameter position of a bead core buries in the bead portion is equal to or more than 70% of a height of a tire outer diameter position. A thickness Tw of the rim strip rubber at the tire maximum width position is smaller than the maximum thickness Tm of the rim strip rubber which is closer to an outer side in the tire radial direction than the tire maximum width position.

Each side piece 40 of a tire 2 includes a rim protector 42. A bob profile representing a contour of the rim protector 42 includes a first circular arc extending outward from a top PT of the rim protector 42, and a second circular arc extending inward from the top PT. A center of the first circular arc is located inward of the bob profile, and a center of the second circular arc is located outward of the bob profile. The side piece 40 includes a side apex 22, and the side apex 22 intersects a normal line LT that is normal to a carcass 12 and passes through the top PT.

In a tire 2, a length from a center in an axial direction of a boundary between a core 30 and an apex 32 of each bead 10 to an outer end PA of the apex 32 is not less than 10 mm and not greater than 15 mm In a state where the tire 2 is mounted on a normal rim and an internal pressure of the tire 2 is adjusted to a normal internal pressure, a shape of a main body portion 36, of a carcass ply 34, which is located in a zone from a boundary portion between a tread 4 and each sidewall 6 to the outer end PA of each apex 32 is represented by a single circular arc, and a diameter of the circular arc is not less than 75% and not greater than 90% of a cross-sectional height of a carcass 14.

In a tire 22, a length from a center PM in an axial direction of a boundary 60 between a core 48 and an apex 50 to an outer edge PA of the apex 50 is not less than 10 mm and not greater than 15 mm. In a state where the tire 22 is mounted on a normal rim and an internal pressure of the tire 22 is adjusted to 10% of a normal internal pressure, a main body portion 54 of a carcass ply 52 extending along an inner surface 62 of the apex 50 is tilted relative to the axial direction, and an angle of the main body portion 54 relative to the axial direction is not less than 40 and not greater than 60.
