Pneumatic Tire
A pneumatic tire comprises a carcass layer, a belt layer disposed on an outer side of the carcass layer in a tire radial direction, and a tread rubber disposed on the outer side of the belt layer in the tire radial direction. The belt layer formed by laminating an angle belt having a belt angle 45 and 70 in absolute values, a pair of cross belts, having belt angles of 10 and 45 in absolute values and having belt angles of mutually opposite signs, and a circumferential reinforcing layer having a belt angle within a range of 5 with respect to a tire circumferential direction. A tread width TW and a cross-sectional width Wca of the carcass layer have a relationship such that 0.82TW/Wca0.92. A width Ws of the circumferential reinforcing layer and a cross-sectional width Wca of the carcass layer such that 0.60Ws/Wca0.70.
AIRLESS TIRE
An airless tire includes a tread ring, a hub formed on radial direction inner side of the ring to be fixed to an axle, and a spoke structure connecting the ring and hub. The ring includes a tread rubber layer, a first reinforcing cord layer, a second reinforcing cord layer and a shear rubber layer between the first and second cord layers, the first and second cord layers and shear layer are formed such that ratio Eb.sub.1/Ee between tire circumferential direction tensile modulus Eb.sub.1 of the first cord layer and shear modulus Ee of the shear layer is 100 or greater and that ratio Eb.sub.2/Ee between tire circumferential direction tensile modulus Eb.sub.2 of the second cord layer and shear modulus Ee is 100 or greater, and each cord layer has a topping rubber having loss tangent tan b of 0.03 to 0.10 and tensile modulus E*b of 4 to 20 MPa.
Pneumatic tire
A pneumatic tire comprises a tread portion provided with a band layer disposed radially inside a tread rubber provided with a first circumferential groove. Cords of the band layer are a hybrid cord formed by twisting together a first filament and a second filament having an elastic modulus lower than that of the first filament. In a region radially inside the first circumferential groove, a maximum thickness t1 of topping rubber on the radially outer side of the band cords is not more than 1.0 mm; a minimum distance d1 from the bottom of the first circumferential groove to the radially outer surface of the band layer is not more than 2.0 mm; and a distance d2 from a groove edge of the first circumferential groove to the radially outer surface of the band layer is not more than 15.0 mm.
Pneumatic tire
A pneumatic tire comprises a carcass layer, a belt layer radially outward of the carcass layer, and a tread rubber radially outward of the belt layer. A belt cord angle of a belt layer large angle belt is 45-70, opposite sign belt cord angles of cross belts are 10-45, and a reinforcing layer belt cord angle is within 5 of a circumferential direction. A reinforcing layer width Ws and a carcass cross-sectional width Wca satisfy 0.60Ws/Wca0.70. The reinforcing layer is radially outward of the cross belts which are radially outward of the large angle belt. A wider cross belt width Wb2 of the pair and Wca satisfy 0.79Wb2/Wca0.89. Wb2 and Wca satisfy 0.79Wb2/Wca0.89. Relationships 0.79Wb2/Wca0.84 and either 0.82TW/Wca0.92 or 0.79TW/SW0.89 are satisfied, where TW is a tread width and SW is a total tire width.
