Abstract:
1. A pneumatic tire, comprising: a carcass formed of at least one ply that toroidally extends; an intersecting belt which is provided on the outer circumference side of a crown portion of the carcass and formed of two inclined belt layers having cords inclined and extending in a direction intersecting each other across a tire equatorial plane; and a circumferential belt layer which is provided on the outer side of the intersecting belt in the tire radial direction and includes a spiral cord arranged as being spirally wound at an inclination angle of equal to or smaller than 5 degrees to the tire equatorial plane, wherein, of the two inclined belt layers forming the intersecting belt, the cords in a first inclined belt layer are inclined at an inclination angle that falls within the range of 45 to 90 degrees measured from the acute-angle side relative to the tire equatorial plane; wherein, of the two inclined belt layers forming the intersecting belt, the cords in a second inclined belt layer are inclined at an inclination angle that falls within the range of 15 to 30 degrees measured in a direction opposite to the inclination angle of the cords in the first inclined belt layer, relative to the tire equatorial plane, and is smaller, in absolute value, than the inclination angle of the cords in the first inclined belt layer, wherein the spiral cord has a rupture elongation of 3% or more and 8% or less, wherein the first inclined belt layer and the circumferential belt layer are adjacent to each other in the tire radial direction, wherein the second inclined belt layer, the first inclined belt layer, and the circumferential belt layer are arranged in order from inward to outward in the tire radial direction, and wherein only one first inclined belt layer, one second inclined belt layer, and one circumferential belt layer are provided as belt layers having cords on the outer circumference side of the crown portion of the carcass.
