<p>Provided are a rubber composition capable of achieving a balanced improvement in performance on ice and snow, fuel economy, abrasion resistance, rubber strength, wet-grip performance, and dry handling stability, and a studless winter tire including the rubber composition. The present invention relates to a rubber composition including a specific conjugated diene polymer obtained by using a polymerization initiator represented by the formula (I) below, a high-cis polybutadiene having a cis microstructure content of not less than 95% by mass, a polyisoprene-based rubber, and a silica having a N 2 SA of 40-400 m 2 /g, wherein the rubber composition includes, based on 100% by mass of a rubber component, 1-45% by mass of the conjugated diene polymer, 20-64% by mass of the high-cis polybutadiene, and 35-60% by mass of the polyisoprene-based rubber, and the rubber composition includes 5-150 parts by mass of the silica for each 100 parts by mass of the rubber component.</p> |
