Claim Text:
1. A pneumatic tire comprising: a belt layer; two bead portions, each bead portion comprising a bead core having an axially inner face and an axially outer face; a first carcass parallel cord ply that is comprised of a tire-inner-face part extending along the inner face of the tire to span between the axially inner faces of the respective bead cores and turned-up parts extended as turned up from the axially outer faces of the respective bead cores up to inside beyond fringes of the belt layer; and a second carcass parallel cord ply that is omitted along the inner face of the tire at between the axially inner faces of the respective bead cores and extends as being turned up from the axially outer faces of the respective bead cores up to inside beyond fringes of the belt layer; and the parallel cords forming the tire-inner-face part, the turned-up parts and the second carcass ply having an inclination to the radial direction of the tire; and the direction of the inclination of the cords being alternated in respect of leftward or rightward, between two adjacent ones of the tire-inner-face part, the turned-up parts and the second carcass ply, wherein the first carcass ply has a jetty portion, which is further protruded from the turned-up end of the second carcass ply inward along the tire-width direction; in the tire-inner-face part, in the turned-up parts, and in the second carcass ply the inclination of the cords with respect to the tire-circumferential direction is a uniform inclination in a range of 60 to 85 degrees, and the cords in the tire-inner-face-part are in parallel within ±10 degrees with the cords in the second carcass ply; a distance of the axially innermost point of the respective turned-up part of the first carcass ply extended up to inside beyond fringes of the belt layer to the respective fringe of the belt layer is in a range of 10 mm to 40 mm, and a distance between the axially innermost point of the respective turned-up part and the equatorial plane of the tire is no less than 50 mm; and a ratio of a distance from the respective fringe of the belt layer to an axially innermost point of the respective turned-up part of the first carcass ply extended up to inside beyond fringes of the belt layer, with respect to that to an axially innermost point of the respective second carcass ply extended up to inside beyond fringes of the belt layer, is in a range of 1.5 to 2.5.
