A circumferential narrow main groove extending in a circumferential direction in a tread of a pneumatic tire. The circumferential narrow main groove includes a narrow portion opening to a road contact surface of the tread and a widened portion having a wider groove width than the narrow portion. The widened portion is at a groove bottom. A groove width ratio (W2/W1) of a maximum groove width W2 of the widened portion to a groove width W1 of the narrow groove portion is in a range 1.5≤(W2/W1)≤4.0, and a cross-sectional area ratio (A2/A1) of a groove bottom-side cross-sectional area A2 to a groove opening-side cross-sectional area A1 in a meridian cross-section is within a range 1.2<(A2/A1)<4.0 when the circumferential narrow main groove is divided into two parts at 50% of a maximum groove depth of the circumferential narrow main groove. The cross-sectional area ratio changes along the circumferential direction.

A tire comprises a tread portion provided with grooves. When the tire mounted on a standard wheel rim and inflated to a standard tire pressure is placed on a flat surface at a camber angle of zero and loaded with a standard tire load, the tire has a ground contacting patch. The depths of the respective circumferential grooves, and ground contact lengths of the ground contacting patch measured at axial positions of the respective circumferential grooves, are in a relationship in which the groove depth increases or decreases as the ground contact length increases or decreases.
