PNEUMATIC TIRE
A pneumatic tire comprises a tread portion 2 provided with a circumferential land region 6 provided with a plurality of combined sipes 35 (36, 37). The combined sipes 35 (36, 37) are each composed of a straight portion 34 extending from one edge toward the other edge of the circumferential land region 6, and an arc-shaped portion 33 extending from the straight portion 34 to the other edge of the circumferential land region 6. The combined sipes 35 include a first combined sipe 36 in which the maximum depth of its arc-shaped portion 33 is larger than the maximum depth of its straight portion 34, and a second combined sipe 37 in which the maximum depth of its straight portion 34 is larger than the maximum depth of its arc-shaped portion 33.
Pneumatic tire
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.
Pneumatic Tire
In a pneumatic tire, among land portions located on both sides of a center circumferential main groove, a first land portion includes a first circumferential narrow groove, and a second land portion includes a second circumferential narrow groove; among regions defined by the first circumferential narrow groove in the first land portion, a side adjacent to the center circumferential main groove is defined as a first-land-portion first region, and the other side is defined as a first-land-portion second region; among regions defined by the second circumferential narrow groove in the second land portion, a side adjacent to the center circumferential main groove is defined as a second-land-portion first region, and the other side is defined as a second-land-portion second region; the first-land-portion first region and the second-land-portion first region have plane regions; and lateral grooves are formed in the first-land-portion second region and the second-land-portion second region.
PNEUMATIC TIRE
A pneumatic tire includes a circumferential main groove extending in a tire circumferential direction, a block, which is a land portion defined by the circumferential main groove, a sipe extending through the block in a tire width direction, and a chamfered portion provided in the sipe. The length of the chamfered portion in the tire width direction is less than 70% of the sipe in the tire width direction.
PNEUMATIC TIRE
Provided is a pneumatic tire. At least one land portion is defined and formed by a plurality of circumferential main grooves provided in a tread surface. A main sipe including a body portion and a chamfered portion is formed in at least one side of the body portion. A branch sipe branching from the chamfered portion is provided. The depth of the body portion is equal to or greater than the depth of the branch sipe.
TIRE
A tire includes a tread portion including first and second tread edges, circumferential grooves, and land portions. The land portions include a crown land portion, a first middle land portion, and a second middle land portion. Under a 50% loaded condition, the first middle land portion, the crown land portion, and the second middle land portion respectively have axial widths W1m, Wc, and W2m of ground contact surfaces, the widths satisfying the following formula, W1m>Wc>W2m. The crown land portion includes an outer ground contact surface and an inner ground contact surface. The outer ground contact surface and the inner ground contact surface respectively have widths Wco and Wci in the tire axial direction, the widths satisfying the following formula, Wco>Wci.
Pneumatic tire
Provided is a pneumatic tire including a plurality of main grooves extending in the tire circumferential direction in a tread portion and including a sipe extending in a tire width direction on a rib defined by a main groove, the sipe includes a leading side edge and a trailing side edge, a chamfered portion shorter than a sipe length of the sipe is formed in each of the leading side edge and the trailing side edge, a non-chamfered region including no other chamfered portion is present in a part facing each chamfered portion of the sipe, and the rib includes an intersecting groove intersecting with at least one out of the sipe and the chamfered portion.
Pneumatic tire
A rib of a pneumatic tire includes a first sipe extending from one of main grooves positioned on both sides of the rib and a second sipe extending from another one of the main grooves, one end portion of the first and second sipes terminating within the rib. The first and second sipes form a pair of sipes including edges on leading and trailing sides. Chamfered portions shorter than a total sipe length of the pair of sipes are formed on respective edges and non-chamfered regions exist on portions opposing respective chamfered portions in the pair of sipes. A maximum depth x (mm) of the sipes and a maximum depth y (mm) of the chamfered portion satisfy x×0.1≤y≤x×0.3+1.0. A sipe width is constant in a range from a portion positioned inside in a tire radial direction of the chamfered portion to a bottom of the sipes.
Pneumatic tire
A pneumatic tire includes, in a tread portion, main grooves extending in a circumferential direction; ribs defined by the main grooves; at least one rib comprising sipes extending in a lateral direction; the sipes comprising a chamfered sipe with a chamfer portion provided on at least one edge, and a non-chamfered sipe with no chamfer portion provided on an edge; the chamfered sipe comprising one end portion terminating in the at least one rib and another end portion communicating with one of the main grooves located on either side of the at least one rib; a plurality of the chamfered sipes communicating with one of the main grooves located on either side of the at least one rib being alternately disposed in the circumferential direction; and the non-chamfered sipe being disposed close to the chamfered sipe on at least one side in the circumferential direction.
Pneumatic tire
A pneumatic tire includes lug grooves in a tread surface of a shoulder land, the lug grooves crossing a circumferential direction and terminating at a first side within the shoulder land and passing through a contact edge at a second side; and a notch formed on an opening edge of the lug grooves, the notch being cutout from the tread surface cut radially inward. The lug grooves have a width decreasing from the first to the second side, an end position of the lug grooves is disposed from a main groove from 5% to 35% of a lateral dimension from the main groove to the ground contact edge, and a maximum groove width position is disposed from the main groove 40% or less of the lateral dimension from the main groove to the ground contact edge; and the notch has a width that increases from the first to the second side.
