Patent ID: 7640958

Claim:
A pneumatic tire provided with a side reinforcement layer in a side portion, wherein: the side reinforcement layer comprises: a first side reinforcement layer; and a second side reinforcement layer, which includes an overlapping region overlapping the first side reinforcement layer in at least a part of a maximum-width portion of the pneumatic tire in a tread width direction, and which is provided outside the first side reinforcement layer in the tread width direction; the first side reinforcement layer includes a plurality of first linear members; the second side reinforcement layer includes a plurality of second linear members each crossing the first linear members; and an inclination angle of each of the first and second linear members with respect to a circumferential line extending in a circumferential direction of the pneumatic tire is 5 to 30 degrees, wherein an outer end portion intersection angle (α) is at least 3 degrees larger than an inner end portion intersection angle (β), the outer end portion intersection angle (α) being an intersection angle on an outer side in the tire radial direction formed by each of the first linear members and each of the second linear members, in an outer end portion of the overlapping region in the tire radial direction, and the inner end portion intersection angle (β) being an intersection angle on an inner side in the tire radial direction formed by each of the first linear members and each of the second linear members, in an inner end portion of the overlapping region in the tire radial direction.
