The plurality of center lug grooves have both ends connected to the pair of circumferential main grooves. The center blocks are defined by the center lug grooves and the pair of circumferential main grooves. The center lug grooves have bent portions at two or more positions. The center blocks include center narrow grooves having both ends connected to the pair of circumferential main grooves. The center narrow groove has bent portions at two or more positions.

Tyre

A tyre includes a tread portion including a shoulder land portion which has a tread edge and an axial outer surface extending radially inwardly from the tread edge. The shoulder land portion is provided with shoulder lateral grooves extending inwardly in the tyre axial direction from the tread edge to define shoulder blocks therebetween, and protrusions protruding outwardly in the tyre axial direction from the outer surface. The protrusion includes first protrusions each provided on the respective shoulder blocks and extending in the tyre radial direction, and second protrusions connecting radially inner ends of adjacent two first protrusions such that first bent portions are formed between the second protrusions and the first protrusions. The first protrusions have widths smaller than maximum length in the tyre circumferential direction of the respective shoulder blocks, and the second protrusions have widths smaller than the width of the first protrusions.

Tire

A tire includes, in a tread portion, a pair of shoulder main grooves, a crown region between the shoulder main grooves, and shoulder regions disposed outside of the shoulder main grooves in a tire axial direction. Land ratios of the crown region and the shoulder regions are respectively 40%-60%. In the crown region, a plurality of middle blocks are arranged on both sides of a tire equator, and each middle block has a longitudinal shape in which a length in the tire circumferential direction is larger than a length in the tire axial direction.

The tire includes a tread section (10) including a pair of circumferential main grooves (20), and the tread section (10) includes a center land region (CR) partitioned by the pair of circumferential main grooves (20) and a shoulder land region (SR) partitioned by one circumferential main groove (20) and a tread end (TE). The center land region (CR) forms a dense structure, in which no main groove extending along the tire circumferential direction (TC) is formed. The shoulder land region (SR) includes a block (40) partitioned by a plurality of shoulder lateral grooves (30) crossing in the tire width direction (TW). A sipe (50) extending in the tire width direction (TW) and having one end communicating with the one circumferential main groove (20) is formed in the block (40). A projection (43) projecting inward in the tire width direction is formed on a first groove wall (21) of the circumferential main groove (20) in a corner part (41) of the block (40) formed by intersection of the one circumferential main groove (20) and the shoulder lateral groove (30).

Tire

A tire comprises a tread portion axially divided into four land regions. The tire has a mounting direction to a vehicle and the land regions 4 include a widest outboard middle land region. The outboard middle land region is provided with first, second and third inclined grooves. The first inclined groove extends from a crown main groove and terminates within the outboard middle land region. The second inclined groove has its both ends terminated within the outboard middle land region. The third inclined groove intersects the first and second inclined grooves.

A tire has a tread portion whose position specified when mounted on a vehicle. An outer shoulder land region has outer shoulder axial grooves. An inner shoulder land region has inner shoulder axial grooves. The outer shoulder axial grooves include inner groove portions and outer groove portions so as to be bent convexly to one side in a tire circumferential direction. The inner shoulder axial grooves include inner groove portions and outer groove portions so as to be bent convexly to the other side in the tire circumferential direction. The inner groove portions of the inner shoulder axial grooves have an angle larger than an angle of the inner groove portions of the outer shoulder axial grooves. The outer groove portions of the inner shoulder axial grooves have an angle smaller than an angle of the outer groove portions of the outer shoulder axial grooves.

TIRE

A tire that includes a tread portion having a designated mounting direction to a vehicle can comprise: an outer shoulder land portion having a greatest width, in the tire axial direction, of a ground contact surface among five land portions. The outer shoulder land portion can include a plurality of outer shoulder sipes connected to an outer shoulder circumferential groove. An outer middle land portion can include a plurality of outer middle sipes extending completely across the outer middle land portion in the tire axial direction. The outer shoulder sipes and the outer middle sipes each can include a pair of sipe walls. The outer shoulder sipes and the outer middle sipes can each include a body portion in which the pair of sipe walls are disposed substantially parallel to each other. A width of a body portion of each outer shoulder sipe can be greater than a width of a body portion of each outer middle sipe.
