<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for evaluating a groove bottom crack resistance performance of a tread groove by using a test piece of which the structure is simplified. <P>SOLUTION: A method for evaluating a groove bottom crack resistance performance of a tread groove 4 provided on a tread rubber 2 of a tire 1 includes a test piece making step of making a test piece 3 in which the tread groove 4 is formed; and a test step of performing a groove bottom crack resistance performance test using the test piece 3. In the test piece making step, a plate-like rubber base material 5 consisting of the same rubber composition as the tread rubber 2 is adhered with a lining material 6 comprised of a metal material attached to one side of the rubber base material 5. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
