It is to provide a pneumatic tire in which a bulk modulus of elasticity of a tread rubber is small and an inverse V-shaped bending in a tread portion is suppressed to effectively prevent separation failure, breakage and the like of a belt layer, which comprises a radial carcass, a belt of two belt layers with a cross cord arrangement reinforcing a tread portion at an outer peripheral side of a crown portion of the radial carcass and a rubber reinforcing layer having a crescent-shaped form at a cross section, wherein the tread rubber forming a ground contact face of the tread is made of rubber having a bulk modulus of elasticity of not more than 4 GPa and an additional belt layer of cords having a cord angle with respect to an equatorial plane of the tire larger than that of cords in each of belt layers is arranged on an outer peripheral side of the belt and a compression rigidity of the additional belt layer in a widthwise direction of the tread is made 2 times or more larger than that of the belt layer. <IMAGE> |
