Abstract

The invention provides a pneumatic tire (2), having excellent operation stability and driving comfortability and benefitting low oil consumption of the vehicle. The pneumatic tire (2) includes a tread (4), a sidewall (6), a bead (8), a carcass (10), a belt (12), a band (14), a reinforcing layer (16), and an inner liner (18). The tread (4) has a shoulder main groove (24). The reinforcing layer (16) is present locally in an axial direction. The reinforcing layer (16) is positioned between the carcass (10) and the belt (12) in a radial direction. The reinforcing layer (16) is positioned on an inside in the radial direction with respect to the shoulder main groove (24). The reinforcing layer (16) is formed by a large number of cords provided in parallel and a topping rubber. The respective cords are extended substantially in the axial direction. A width (Wr) of the reinforcing layer (16) is equal to or higher than 200% of a width (Wg) of the shoulder main groove (24) and is equal to or lower than 500% of the width (Wg) of the shoulder main groove (24).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a pneumatic tire mounted on a car or the like. Background technique [0002] A tire has a tread portion, a sidewall portion, a bead, a carcass, a belt, and the like. The belt layer includes an inner layer and an outer layer. The inner layer and the outer layer respectively include a plurality of cords and a topping arranged side by side. Each cord is inclined with respect to the equatorial plane. The belt contributes to the rigidity of the tire. [0003] The tread portion has a plurality of main grooves. Each main groove extends along the circumferential direction. This main ditch helps with drainage. The surface of the tread portion is divided by these main grooves. [0004] When a vehicle turns, centrifugal force acts on the vehicle. On the other hand, cornering creates lateral resistance on the tires. The magnitude of the lateral resistance depends on the coefficient of friction between the tread and the roa...
