Patent ID: 7779878

Claim:
A pneumatic tire including a carcass layer that extends across a pair of left and right bead cores in a toroidal shape, and a belt layer that is arranged on a tire-radial direction outer side with respect to the carcass layer, wherein the belt layer includes a plurality of belt members that are superposed, the belt members including a high-angle belt that is arranged on the tire-radial direction outer side with respect to the carcass layer and extending continuously across a center of the tire in a tire-width direction, a cord member of the high-angle belt having a fiber direction oblique to a tire circumferential direction at an angle not smaller than 45 degrees and not larger than 90 degrees, a pair of cross belts that is arranged on the tire-radial direction outer side with respect to the high-angle belt, a cord member of each of the cross belts having a fiber direction oblique to the tire circumferential direction at an angle not smaller than 10 degrees and not larger than 45 degrees, and the fiber direction of one of the cord members being different from that of other, a first circumferential-direction reinforcing layer that is arranged between the cross belts, and that has two edges on a tire-width direction inner side with respect to two edges of the cross belt on a tire-radial direction inner side and two edges of the cross belt on the tire-radial direction outer side, and a second circumferential-direction reinforcing layer that is arranged between the carcass layer and the cross belt on the tire-radial direction inner side, and on a tire-width direction outer side with respect to two opposite edges of the high-angle belt, and an edge of the first circumferential-direction reinforcing layer on the tire-width direction outer side and an edge of the second circumferential-direction reinforcing layer on the tire-width direction outer side are at approximately in same position in the tire width direction.
