Abstract
A pneumatic tire of the present technology includes: protrusions that are provided in a range including a maximum tire width position in a tire side portion, and extend in a direction that intersects a tire radial direction. The protrusions are provided having a space therebetween in a tire circumferential direction, pass through a center of rotation, extend in the tire radial direction and, when a first straight line and a second straight line each having different positions in the tire circumferential direction each traverse the protrusions, have a ratio of from 0.8 to 1.2, both inclusive, between a total mass per unit length for the protrusions traversed by the first straight line and a total mass per unit length for the protrusions traversed by the second straight line. A ratio between a total width SW and an outer diameter OD fulfills the relationship SW/OD≤0.3.
