An object of the present invention is to provide a pneumatic tire for uses such as racing that use nylon fiber cords as carcass cords in a half-radial cord arrangement, wherein the tire sufficiently exhibits the inherent cord properties of the nylon fiber carcass cords and has superior steering stability and durability. The pneumatic tire according to the present invention is a pneumatic tire having a half-radial structure in which carcass cords are biased with respect to the radial direction of the tire and have an angle of 55 to 85° with respect to the circumferential direction of the tire as measured at a central position along the widthwise direction of the tread, the tire being characterized in that the carcass cords have an elastic modulus of 3 to 10 GPa and a twist coefficient ± of 1,500 to 2,500, and a difference in intermediate elongation at 2.0 cN/dtex in the carcass cords between a central section and side sections of the tire is not more than 1.0%; the twist coefficient ± being N x ˆšT; N being the number of twists per 10 cm of length in fiber cords; and T being the fineness (dtex) of the fiber cords. |
