PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a pneumatic tire which has improved uniformity and has excellent ride comfort and steering stability.SOLUTION: A pneumatic tire 2 comprises: a tread 4 whose outer surface forms a tread surface 16; a pair of side walls 6 that respectively extend from ends of the tread 4 substantially inwardly in a radial direction; a pair of beads 8 that respectively extend from the side walls 6 further substantially inwardly in the radial direction; a carcass 12 that is bridged between both beads 8 along the tread 4 and the inside of the side walls 6; and a pair of plates 10 formed of high rigidity materials. The carcass 12 comprises a carcass ply 24. The beads 8 comprise a core 20. Outside in the axial direction of the core 20 are positioned the plates 10. In the tire 2, the high rigidity plates 10 support the core 20 so as to prevent the core from collapsing. This allows the tire 2 to have improved uniformity and excellent ride comfort and steering stability. |
