In a pneumatic tire, a partial tie rubber layer is disposed between a carcass layer and an innerliner layer in a limited manner across an entire region excluding end portions near a pair of bead portions; end surfaces on both sides in a tire lateral direction of the partial tie rubber layer are inclined surfaces that form an acute angle with respect to a surface of the partial tie rubber layer on the carcass layer side; and an inclination angle of the inclined surfaces with respect to the surface of the partial tie rubber layer on the carcass layer side is from 20° to 60°.
