A pneumatic tire includes a circumferential main groove extending in a tire circumferential direction, a land portion defined by the circumferential main grooves, and a sipe disposed in the land portion. The sipe is formed in a zigzag shape that has an amplitude in a width direction of the sipe while extending in a longitudinal direction of the sipe. A magnitude of the amplitude changes according to a position in a depth direction of the sipe. A depth of a maximum amplitude portion from an opening portion of the sipe in the depth direction of the sipe is located at a position 30% or more of a maximum depth of the sipe. The maximum amplitude portion is a portion where a magnitude of the amplitude is maximum.

A tire comprises a tread portion whose shoulder land part is provided with a narrow circumferential groove having an axially inner wall surface, an axially outer wall surface and a groove bottom including a deepest point. The axially inner wall surface has a radially inner curved portion concaved toward the axially inside, and the axially outer wall surface has a radially inner curved portion concaved toward the axially outside. the radially outer end of the radially inner curved portion of the axially inner wall surface is positioned radially inside the radially outer end of the radially inner curved portion of the axially outer wall surface.

A tire has a tread including: a first circumferential groove which is closest to a center in a tire width direction among a plurality of circumferential grooves; center land portions placed adjacent to the first circumferential groove at a side near the center in the tire width direction, and a lug groove which extends between a plurality of the center land portions, and which opens to a side near the first circumferential groove. A bridge having a bottom surface which is bulged is formed at a portion of the lug groove near the first circumferential groove. The bridge has a cross-sectional shape of a trapezoid with tapered surfaces in which side surfaces of the lug groove at an end near a center in a longitudinal direction and an end near the first circumferential groove are inclined with heights thereof reduced toward corresponding ends of the bridge.

A tire according to an embodiment has a tread including a circumferential groove, and a lug groove connected to the circumferential groove and extending from a first side in a tire width direction to a second side. The tire includes two first raised portions formed in the circumferential groove on a groove bottom at a positions either side of an end of the lug groove on a side near the circumferential groove, a second raised portion formed on a groove bottom of a portion of the lug groove on a side near the circumferential groove, and a third raised portion formed at an intersection of the circumferential groove with an extension of the lug groove, on at least a part of a groove bottom of a portion surrounded in three directions by the two first raised portions and the second raised portion.

A heavy duty tire comprises a tread portion having circumferential grooves and land portions. The circumferential grooves include two shoulder circumferential grooves and a crown circumferential groove. The land portions include two of shoulder land portions and two crown land portions. The width W3 of the shoulder land portion is 17% to 28% of the tread width TW. The crown land portion is divided by crown shallow groove into crown blocks. The groove depth of the crown shallow groove is smaller than the groove depth of the crown circumferential groove. The groove bottom of the crown shallow groove is provided with a groove bottom sipe. The ground contacting top surface of the crown block is hexagonal, and the maximum circumferential dimension is 100% to 200% of the maximum axial dimension.

A tire includes a tread portion being provided with circumferential grooves extending continuously in a zigzag manner. One of the circumferential grooves includes first inclined elements inclined in a first direction with respect to the tire circumferential direction, second inclined elements inclined in a second direction opposite to the first direction with respect to the tire circumferential direction, and intersections where the first inclined elements and second inclined elements intersect. Each of the first inclined elements and the second inclined elements is provided with at least one first protrusion that projects outwardly in a tire radial direction from the groove bottom and connects the pair of groove walls. At least one of the intersections is provided with a second protrusion that projects outwardly in the tire radial direction from the groove bottom and is separated from the pair of groove walls.

A pneumatic tire comprises a carcass layer, a belt layer disposed on the outer side in the tire radial direction of the carcass layer, and tread rubber disposed on the outer side in the tire radial direction of the belt layer. The belt layer is formed by laminating a pair of cross belts having belt angles with an absolute value from 10° to 45° both inclusive and mutually opposite signs, and a circumferential reinforcing layer having a belt angle within a range of ±5° relative to the tire circumferential direction. The distance (Gcc) from the tread profile to the tire inner circumferential surface along the tire equatorial plane and the distance (Gsh) from the tread edge to the tire inner circumferential surface have a relationship satisfying 1.10≤Gsh/Gcc. The groove depth (Dsh) and under-groove gauge (UDsh) of the outermost circumferential main groove have a relationship satisfying 0.20≤UDsh/Dsh.

A tire 2 has a nominal aspect ratio of 65% or less. The tire 2 includes a tread 4 and a band 34. The band 34 includes a full band 42 and a pair of edge bands 44 located outward of ends of the full band 42 in a radial direction. A narrow groove 56 is formed on a shoulder land portion 54s of the tread 4. The narrow groove 56 includes an inner groove wall 62u and an outer groove wall 62s. The inner groove wall 62u includes an inner recess portion 64 recessed inward in the axial direction, on a groove bottom side. The outer groove wall 62s includes an outer recess portion 66 recessed outward in the axial direction, on the groove bottom side.

The subject invention discloses a tire (1) having at least one sipe pattern comprising, in the circumferential direction of the tire (1), one or more straight sipes (15) and two or more inclined sipes (17, 19, 37, 39); wherein at least one straight sipe (15) is arranged between two or more inclined sipes (17, 19, 37, 39).

In a pneumatic tire including a tread portion, a sidewall portion, a bead portion, a carcass layer mounted between a pair of bead portions, a plurality of main grooves extending in the tire circumferential direction and formed in the tread portion, and a plurality of land portions defined by the main grooves, the carcass layer includes a carcass cord formed of a polyester fiber cord, an elongation at break of the carcass cord is from 20% to 30%, and a groove area ratio SgA in a ground contact region of the tread portion is from 30% to 60%, a groove area ratio SgB in a center region of the tread portion satisfies a relationship 0.7≤SgB/SgA<1.1, and a depth of the main groove included in the center region is from 7 mm to 10 mm.
