HEAVY DUTY TIRE

摘要

A heavy duty tire has a tread portion 2 which is divided into five inner, intermediate and outer rib-like land portions R1, R2, R2, R3 and R3. The inner rib-like land portion R1 is virtudally divided into half regions R1a and R1a on each side of a tire equator. The intermediate rib-like land portions R2 and R3 are virtually divided into tire equator-side half regions R2c and R3c, and into ground-contact edge-side half regions R2e and R3e. In a regular ground-contact state in which a normal load is applied, when total sums of ground-contact load applied to the half regions R1a, R2c, R2e, R3c and R3e are defined as P1a, P2c, P2e, P3c and P3e, P2c/P1a is set to 0.9 to 1.05, P2e/P2c is set to 0.75 to 1.0, P3c/P2e is set to 0.9 to 1.2, and P3e/P3c is set to 0.8 to 1.1.
