Provided is a tire in which a first intermediate land portion 3b of most vehicle-installed outside includes a sipe extending in a tire width direction, the sipe comprises a first sipe So that communicates with a circumferential groove 2a adjacent to a vehicle-installed outside of the first intermediate land portion 3b, and terminates in the first intermediate land portion 3b, and a second sipe Si that communicates with a circumferential groove 2b adjacent to a vehicle-installed inside of the first intermediate land portion 3b, and terminates in the first intermediate land portion 3b, the first sipes So and the second sipes Si are alternately present in a tire circumferential direction, and a sipe width of the first sipe So is larger than a sipe width of the second sipe Si.

A pneumatic tire provided with, in a tread surface, at least two main circumferential grooves, and a first land portion defined by the two main grooves, wherein in the first land portion, the followings are disposed: a first inclined groove; inclining relative to a tire width direction, and having one end portion opening in the main groove on one side adjacent to the first land portion and the other end portion terminating within the first land portion, and a first notched portion; having one end in a tire width direction as a tip positioned at an endmost, in a tire width direction, of the other end portion of the first inclined groove and the other end in a tire width direction opening in the main groove on the other side adjacent to the first land portion.

There is provided a pneumatic tire, in which a first set of blocks that is partitioned and formed by two first circumferential grooves and a plurality of first lateral grooves is provided in the center region that includes the tire equatorial plane, a second set of blocks that is partitioned and formed by one second circumferential groove and a plurality of second lateral grooves is provided in the outermost portion in the tire width direction on each side in the tire width direction, a rib is provided between the first set of blocks and the second sets of blocks, the rib is divided by at least one third circumferential groove, and a plurality of sipes is formed in the first set of blocks, the second set of blocks, and the rib.

A tire includes a tread portion including a first tread edge, a first shoulder circumferential groove, and a first shoulder land portion demarcated by the first shoulder circumferential groove to include the first tread edge. The first shoulder land portion is provided with first shoulder lateral grooves extending from the first shoulder circumferential groove to the first tread edge. One of the first shoulder lateral grooves includes first and second groove walls which face each other, and a tie-bar. The tie-bar includes an outer surface extending along a ground contact surface of the first shoulder land portion, the outer surface being connected to the first and second groove walls. The outer surface includes a first edge connected to the first groove wall, and a second edge connected to the second groove wall, the second edge having a length smaller than a length of the first edge.

A rib-like land section partitioned by main grooves, a plurality of sub-grooves provided in the rib-like land section at intervals in the tire circumferential direction and a groove hole provided between the sub-grooves adjacent to each other and extending in the tire circumferential direction are provided in a tread section. The sub-groove includes a lateral groove portion, in which one end opens to the main groove and the other end terminates inside the rib-like land section, and a longitudinal groove portion extending from the other end of the lateral groove portion to one side in the tire circumferential direction and terminating inside the rib-like land section. The groove hole is formed so that a groove depth at one end part close to a terminal end of the longitudinal groove portion becomes shallower than a groove depth at the other end part far from the terminal end.

An outer shoulder land region includes first shoulder lateral grooves each extending axially inwardly from an outer tread ground contact edge to have a first inner end in the tyre axial direction within the outer shoulder land region, first outer shoulder lateral sipes each connecting between the first inner end and an outer shoulder main groove, and second outer shoulder lateral sipes each extending axially inwardly from the outer tread ground contact edge to have a second inner end positioned on an axially outer side of the first inner ends. An outer middle land region includes outer middle lateral sipes each smoothly connected with the respective first outer shoulder lateral sipe with the outer shoulder main groove therebetween. Each of the outer middle lateral sipes connects between the outer shoulder main groove and an outer crown main groove and has a third inner end within the outer middle land region.

A tyre includes a tread portion including a first land portion having a circumferentially extending first edge and a circumferentially extending second edge on its ground contacting surface. The first land portion is provided with sipes each extending from the first edge to the second edge. The sipes include bent sipes each including two or more sipe elements joined with each other to form a bent portion. The bent sipes include first sipes and second sipes. Each first sipe, as the sipes elements, includes at least one first sipe element inclined in a first direction with respect to a tyre axial direction and at least one second sipe element inclined in a second direction opposite to the first direction with respect to the tyre axial direction. All sipe elements of each second sipe are inclined in the first direction with respect to the tyre axial direction.
