Abstract:
An inner end (27a) of a slit (27) provided in a shoulder rib (25) in a tire width direction is terminated within the shoulder rib (25). The shoulder rib (25) includes a slit region (30) that has the slit (27) and a rib region (31) that has not the slit (27). The shoulder rib (25) protrudes to the outside of a tire reference profile line L on a cross-section in the tire width direction and has a protrusion peak (33) in the rib region (31). A ground contact surface of the shoulder rib (25) draw, on a cross-section in the tire width direction, an arch (M) passing through a ground contact end (22), the protrusion peak (33), and a point (34) on an inner sidewall of a shoulder-side main groove (21) in the tire width direction. The arch (M) passes through a point (35) on the tire reference profile line (L) or outside the tire reference profile line (L) in a normal direction of the tire reference profile line (L) at an inner end of the shoulder rib (25) in the tire width direction.
