<p>An object of the present invention is to improve durability of a bead portion of a tire by optimizing a sectional shape and arrangement of a bead wire(s). The pneumatic tire comprises: a pair of bead portions having bead cores embedded therein, each bead core being constituted of plural bead wires extending in the tire circumferential direction; a pair of side wall portions extending from the bead portions on the outer side in the tire radial direction; a tread portion extending over the respective sidewall portions; and a carcass extending in a toroidal shape across the aforementioned portions and having respective end portions being turned up around the bead cores, wherein the bead wires each have complementary shape portions in a section in the tire widthwise direction, by which shape portions adjacent bead wires are complementarily engageable with each other.</p> |
