A tread pattern on a pneumatic tire is provided in regions of two intermediate land portions and has circumferential shallow grooves extending in the tire circumferential direction. An orientation of a groove inclination inclined with respect to a first direction in the tire circumferential direction of lug grooves provided in a region of one intermediate land portion, is the same as an orientation of a groove inclination inclined with respect to a second direction opposite to of the first direction of the tire circumferential direction of lug grooves provided in a region of another intermediate land portion, and the lug grooves provided in the respective regions of the intermediate land portions are bent so that the groove inclination approaches the tire circumferential direction at positions of intersection with the circumferential shallow grooves.
