A pneumatic tire has a sidewall comprising a plurality of circumferentially oriented pattern element rows having a plurality of pattern elements defining an identical contour shape in succession in a tire circumferential direction, and a plurality of radially oriented pattern element rows having a plurality of pattern elements in succession in a tire radial direction. The light-reflectance properties of each pattern element changes in one direction and determine the orientation in which the pattern elements are arranged relative to the tire circumferential or radial direction. When the pattern elements are viewed along the circumferentially oriented pattern element rows, the arrangement orientation changes periodically along the tire circumferential direction. When the plurality of pattern elements are viewed along each of the radially oriented pattern element rows, the arrangement orientation between adjacent pattern elements is different, and the absolute value of the difference in the arrangement orientation angles is fixed. |
