Each of at least two layers of a carcass reinforcement has a breaking force per unit width higher than 2250 daN/dm. The minimum strength per unit width, measured for an elongation of less than 10%, of a second layer of carcass reinforcement is strictly greater than a value equal to 20% of the minimum strength per unit width, measured for an elongation of less than 10%, of a first layer of carcass reinforcement. The reinforcing elements of the two layers of carcass reinforcement have a thread count of less than 750 tex. The elongation of the reinforcing elements of the second layer of carcass reinforcement is greater than 4% under a force of 20 daN, and the secant elastic modulus values under tension at 10% elongation, Mt, Mj, satisfy the relationship Mt/Mj≧1.

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%.

PNEUMATIC TIRE
In a tire 2 of the present invention, sidewalls 6 each include an outer layer 6a, and an inner layer 6b disposed inward of the outer layer 6a in the axial direction. The inner side end, in the radial direction, of the inner layer 6a extends to a region between a bead 10 and a chafer 8. When Po represents a contact point, on an outer surface of the tire 2, at which the outer layer 6a and the chafer 8 contact with each other, an inner side end, in the radial direction, of the outer layer 6a is equal to the contact point Po.

A sheeted rubber layer is disposed between the main portion and the turn-up portions in each sidewall portion.
Pneumatic tire
A pneumatic tire comprises a carcass ply extending between bead portions through a tread portion and sidewall portions, and turned up around a bead core from the inside to the outside of the tire in each of the bead portions, so as to form a pair of turnup portions and a main portion therebetween.
