Abstract: A tread portion of a pneumatic tire includes a columnar wear measurement magnet that has magnetic flux density or magnetic field strength formed thereby decreased due to wear thereof along with wear of tread rubber of the tread portion and a columnar reference magnet provided at a position where the columnar reference magnet is not worn with the wear of the tread rubber. The wear measurement magnet and the reference magnet extend from a tread surface side toward a tire cavity region of the pneumatic tire, and an end of the reference magnet on the tread surface side is located farther from a tread surface where the tread portion contacts the ground than an end of the wear measurement magnet on the tread surface side.

Abstract: A pneumatic tire is provided. A carcass layer includes carcass cords formed of organic fiber cords obtained by intertwining a filament bundle of organic fibers, and includes turn-up portions formed by turning up end portions of a pair of bead portions to an outer side in a tire width direction. The carcass cords have an elongation at break (EB) satisfying EB≥15%. A portion of a belt layer located in a width range of 10% of a width of a second widest belt in the belt layer on each of a left side and a right side of a tire equator line in a tire width direction has a belt angle (θc) satisfying 0.349 rad≤θc≤0.56 rad. The elongation at break (EB) of the carcass cords and the belt angle (θc) satisfy 800

Abstract: In a pneumatic tire, bead cores have a wire arrangement. In a cross-sectional view in a tire meridian direction, a tangential line and a contact point are defined. The tangential line contacts an innermost layer in a radial direction and the wire cross sections innermost and outermost in a lateral direction in the wire arrangement from a rim fitting surface side. The contact point of the tangent line is on the wire cross section on the outermost side. A gauge Wh in the lateral direction from the contact point to the rim fitting surface and an outer diameter φ of the bead wire have a relationship 2.0≤Wh/φ≤15.0. A radial height H2 of a contact portion between a body portion and a turned back portion of a carcass layer has a relationship 0.80≤H2/H1≤3.00 to a radial height H1 of the bead cores.

Abstract: Provided is a pneumatic tire with a surface provided with a reflective layer that reflects light, the reflective layer including a transparent globule group composed of transparent globules. At least some of the transparent globules are each configured to reflect incident light incident into the transparent globule from outside, at an interface with the outside of the transparent globule, and to emit the light to the outside of the transparent globule as reflected light. The transparent globules are each configured to cause the reflected light to include more amount of non-retroreflected light than retroreflected light, the non-retroreflected light moving further away from an optical path of the incident light according to a distance from the transparent globules, being increased. The transparent globules each have an optical path of the non-retroreflected light with an angle difference of from 2.0 degrees to 2.5 degrees from the optical path of the incident light.
