Abstract: To make it possible to enhance uneven wear resistance while maintaining drainage performance, a pneumatic tire includes a left-right asymmetric tread pattern having a designated mounting orientation with respect to a vehicle. Vertical grooves include an inner shoulder circumferential groove disposed on an innermost side of the vehicle, and an outer shoulder circumferential groove disposed on an outermost side of the vehicle. Lateral grooves include inner shoulder lateral grooves and outer shoulder lateral grooves. The inner shoulder lateral groove includes a first inner shoulder lateral groove which extends inward in a tire axial direction from an outer side of a vehicle-inner side tread edge and terminates without reaching the inner shoulder circumferential groove, and a second inner shoulder lateral groove which extends inward in the tire axial direction from an outer side of the vehicle-inner side tread edge and opens in the inner shoulder circumferential groove.

Abstract: A pneumatic tire having improved wear resistance, especially improved uneven wear resistance (such as river wear), is offered. The tire that is a rib-pattern tire has five ribs extending circumferentially of the tire. The ribs include a center rib and intermediate ribs located on the opposite sides of the center rib that is located on the equator line of the tire. Closed sipes are formed at least in the center rib and in the intermediate ribs. Each sipe is located in the lateral center of the corresponding rib. Both ends of each sipe terminate within the corresponding rib. The closed sipes are successively offset circumferentially among the ribs and arranged in a periodic pattern on the outer surface of the tire. The closed sipes in the ribs are so arranged that when they are optically projected onto the equator line of the tire, the sipes do not overlap circumferentially of the tire among the ribs.

A large number of blocks (26) of same-shape partitioned by main grooves and lug grooves are formed on a tread part (16). The tread part (16) comprises a center block row (32) and second block rows (34L) and (34R). Each of the blocks (26) comprises a plurality of sipes (30). Also, Gt=S/(Sa+Sb×0.6), and Gu=S/(Ds×L+Sb×0.6) are calculated for the each block where the area of the outer wall of the block (26) is (Sa) and the overall area of the sipes (30) on the block (26) is (Sb). Also, when the total sum (Gt) which is the total sum of (Gt) in three block rows and the total sum (Gu) which is the total sum of (Gu) in three block rows are calculated, the requirements 0.95≦Total Sum Gt≦1.05 and 1.30≦Total Sum Gu≦1.60 are satisfied.

Abstract: A pneumatic tire including sipes that have at least one ends positioned within blocks. The sipes are arranged such that each of the sipes meanders from the one end to the other end thereof to form a meandrous shape, and as the depth of the sipes increases, the meander width of the sipes gradually increases from their openings to at least the 80%-worn position of the blocks. The sipes each have a sipe length L, which is defined as a center line length between an intersection of a center line passing the center of the meander width of the meandrous shape with a first straight line and an intersection of the center line with a second straight line, the first straight line being orthogonally drawn to the center line from the one end of the sipe and the second straight line being orthogonally drawn to the center line from the other end of the sipe at the same depth position of the sipe, the sipe length L gradually decreasing as the sipe depth increases. The ratio L80/M0 of the sipe length L80 at the 80% worn position to the opening length M0 of the sipes is in the range of 0.8 to 0.95, and the ratio M80/M0 of the actual length M80 of the sipes at the 80% worn position to the opening length M0 is in the range of 1.0 to 1.15.
