A tire for a two-wheeled vehicle in which cornering controllability (cornering performance) is improved without impairing various performances of the tire such as straight-ahead driving performance, high-speed ability, ride comfort, and uniformity is provided. It is a tire for a two-wheeled vehicle including a tread portion 11, side wall portions 12 disposed radially inside the tire from both edges thereof, bead portions 31 continuing radially inside the tire, a carcass layer 22 for reinforcing these portions between bead cores 21 embedded in the bead portions, and a spiral belt 23 formed outside the carcass layer in the radial direction of the tire by spirally wound so as to extend substantially in parallel to the circumferential direction of the tire. The spiral belt layer 23 is formed of a steel-rubber compound material by embedding one or more spirally shaped steel element wires in rubber without twisting the same with each other, and the element wire diameter of the steel element wire is set in a range from 0.25 mm to 0.60 mm. |
