In a pneumatic tire are defined: a first imaginary line VL1 passing through a ground contact surface in a meridian cross section of a tread portion, a second imaginary line VL2 passing through a bottom portion of a shoulder main groove and parallel to VL1, an intersection point between VL2 and a surface of a shoulder land portion outward of a ground contact edge T in a lateral direction, and an equatorial plane CL. Given A as a distance in the lateral direction between an intersection point P and CL, B as a groove depth of the shoulder main groove, and C as a distance in the lateral direction between T and CL, 0.80≤(B+C)/A≤1.15 is satisfied and, given E as a distance in the lateral direction between the bottom portion of the shoulder main groove and P, 2.0≤E/B≤5.0 is satisfied.
