Claim:
1. A pneumatic tire comprising a plurality of protrusions and a plurality of recesses on at least one tire side portion; wherein the protrusions are formed as convexities having a longitudinal shape in a tire radial direction; a region including the protrusions is a region between a first imaginary line connecting outer ends on an outermost side in the tire radial direction of the protrusions that are adjacent in a tire circumferential direction and a second imaginary line connecting inner ends on an innermost side in the tire radial direction of the protrusions that are adjacent in the tire circumferential direction; a region including the recesses is a region between a third imaginary line connecting edges of adjacent radially outermost recesses and a fourth imaginary line connecting edges of adjacent radially innermost recesses; the region including the recesses is entirely radially inward of the second imaginary line; the region including the protrusions is entirely radially outward of the third imaginary line; the second imaginary line and the third imaginary line extend in a wave or zigzag shape in the tire circumferential direction, and radially overlap each other in the tire circumferential direction; and at each circumferential point, the second imaginary line is radially outward of the third imaginary line.
