The disclosed pneumatic tire (1) comprises a stiffener (31) and a rubber pad (32) which, disposed between a toroidal carcass body (21) and a folded-back carcass portion (22) folded back at a bead core (11), are arranged so as to be oriented radially outwards of the tire from the bead core (11). Further, from the rim baseline (BL), the height KSH to the end (31A) of the stiffener (31), the height OWH to the maximum carcass width (20W), and the height FH to the end (101A) of the rim flange (101) fulfill 0.2≦[(KSH−FH)/(OWH−FH)]≦0.28.
