A tire for running on rough terrain for which an intended tire rotational direction is specified, comprises: a tread portion 2 provided with a first block 11 having a ground contacting top surface 16, and a base cross sectional shape 17. The ground contacting top surface 16 has a polygonal shape having a heel-side oblique edge 21 inclined with respect to the tire axial direction. The base cross sectional shape 17 is a polygon having a heel-side axial edge 22 extending in the tire axial direction. In the top view of the first block, an angle a formed between the heel-side oblique edge 21 and the heel-side axial edge 22 is in a range from 5 to 45 degrees.

Taking a groove side-wall to a position at a groove depth from a tread face of lug groove as a tread-in side first inclined portion, and taking a groove side-wall from the position at groove depth to a groove bottom as a tread-in side second inclined portion, then the following A1 is set less than the following B1. When viewed in cross-section orthogonal to a length direction of the lug groove: A1 is an area of a region enclosed by an imaginary line passing through an end portion on a tread face side of the tread-in side first inclined portion and perpendicular to the tread face, by an imaginary line passing through an end portion on a groove bottom side of the tread-in side first inclined portion and orthogonal to the imaginary line, and by the tread-in side first inclined portion; and B1 is an area of a region enclosed by an imaginary line passing through an end portion on a tread face side of the tread-in side second inclined portion and perpendicular to the tread face, by an imaginary line passing through the deepest portion of the lug groove and parallel to the tread face, and by the tread-in side second inclined portion.

By forming a ground contact edge side of lug grooves such that the groove depth becomes shallower in groove depth from the tire equatorial plane side toward the ground contact edge, and by setting an average angle of inclination formed between a tread face and a groove bottom to be not more than 5, water expulsion is performed smoothly in the vicinity of the ground contact edge while securing the rigidity of land portions in the vicinity of the ground contact edge. This enables a high degree of both wet performance and dry performance to be achieved.

A farm tire including a carcass; a tread supported by the carcass and having a number of lugs; a tread belt interposed between the carcass and the tread, and having an outer tread ply and an inner tread ply, which are superimposed and each have a number of metal cords embedded in a rubber strip; the tire. The farm tire also includes two tread ply wedges, each interposed between the lateral ends of the two tread plies; and protective caps covering the two ends of each of the tread plies, each made of rubber and folded into a U about the respective ply end; wherein the protective cap of the inner tread ply is partly defined by an outer appendix of the corresponding tread ply wedge.

Pneumatic tire comprising a tread (1) provided with two edges (2), a center (3) and a plurality of tread bars (10) distributed in a circumferential direction, each tread bar (10) extending in an oblique direction from one of the edges (2) towards the center (3) of said tread (1), the plurality of tread bars (10) comprising at least two adjacent tread bars (11, 12); each of said adjacent tread bars (11, 12) has at least one incision (20, 21, 23) extending along the length of the tread bar, each adjacent tread bar has an overall incision length (LGI) corresponding to the sum of the lengths of the incisions that are part of said tread bar, the widths (LB11, LB12) of said adjacent tread bars (11, 12) are different, and the overall incision length (LGI) in said adjacent tread bars (11, 12) is different.

A tire for an agricultural vehicle, having a tread made of rubbery material and two axially outer zones delimiting the tread, each having a shoulder and a sidewall and designed to mechanically connect the tread to a rim. The tire has a plurality of blocks distributed in a circumferential direction (X), each block having a length L, measured in the circumferential direction (X) from a lateral face of the block, and a height H, where L is greater than H. Each block has a cavity that opens onto the lateral face, forming an opening in the lateral face. The cavity has a depth p and an opening width l. The blocks are present in at least one of the two axially outer zones, but not in the tread. The blocks are present at the shoulder in the continuation of the tread.

A tyre (200) includes a tread (210) having tread blocks (220) with grooves (230) arranged between the tread blocks (220) and studs (100, 100a, 100b) installed into at least some of the tread blocks (220). A central region (CR) of the tread (210) is arranged between a first shoulder region (SR1) of the tread (210) and a second shoulder region (SR2) of the tread (210). At least some of the tread blocks (220) are provided with sipes (240). The tyre (200) has a first density of sipes (240) in the central region (CR), a second density of sipes (240) in the first shoulder region (SR1), and a third density of sipes (240) in the second shoulder region (SR2). The first density of sipes (240) is at least 15% greater than either or both of the second density of sipes (240) and the third density of sipes (240).

A tyre (200) includes a tread (210) having tread blocks (220); a plurality of stud holes (250); and a plurality of studs (100) installed in at least some of the stud holes (250). Studs (100b) in a centre area (CR) of the tyre (200) have higher protrusion from a surface of the tread block (220) than studs (100a) in a shoulder area (SR1, SR2) of the tyre (200).

A pneumatic tire, including: a lug groove opening at an end of a ground contact surface of a tread portion and extending toward the tire equatorial plane of the ground contact surface to terminate before reaching the tire equatorial plane; a communication groove making a corresponding pair of the lug grooves located on respective sides of the tire equatorial plane communicate with each other; and at least one widthwise groove, formed in a ground contact surface region demarcated between the end of the ground contact surface and the tire equatorial plane and between one pair and another pair adjacent thereto in the tread circumferential direction of the lug grooves and the communication groove communicating therewith, such that the widthwise groove extends in a direction of a tread width and an end thereof on the outer side in the tread width direction terminates within the ground contact surface region.

Provided is a pneumatic tire including center main grooves, shoulder main grooves, a center land portion, middle land portions, shoulder land portions, and lug grooves provided in each shoulder land portion. The pitch of the lug grooves is changed on the tire circumference. The profile line L1 that defines the road contact surface of the center land portion protrudes further to the outer side in the tire radial direction than the standard profile line L0. The profile line L2 that defines the road contact surface of the middle land portion and the shoulder land portion protrudes further to the outer side in the tire radial direction than the standard profile line L0. The ratio of the groove volume of the lug grooves to the size of the pitch of the lug grooves in the shoulder land portion decreases as the pitch increases, and increases as the pitch decreases.
