A pneumatic tire includes first main grooves formed on outer sides, in the lateral direction, of a first land including an equatorial plane and extending in the circumferential direction; second main grooves outside, in the lateral direction, of the first main grooves and extending in the circumferential direction; auxiliary grooves formed on second lands between the first main grooves and the second main grooves, opening to the second main grooves, and terminating in the second lands; and first sipes inclined identically to the auxiliary grooves and crossing the second lands. The auxiliary grooves are formed into a shape bending at a bend point, and include a first portion extending from an opening end to the bend point, and a second portion extending from the bend point to a terminating end. A groove width of the first portion gradually reduces from the opening end to the bend point.
