Abstract
A pneumatic tire includes cross belts and one or more protective belts provided in the tire radial direction. A width of a widest protective belt is greater than a width of any of the cross belts. In the tire profile, a maximum projection position of the widest protective belt is A, an end position of the widest protective belt is B, a position at which a straight line a passing through position A extending in the direction normal to a tread surface intersects with the tread surface is A', and a position at which a straight line b passing through position B extending in the direction normal to the tread surface intersects with the tread surface is B′. An angle formed between a first straight line that links position A and position B and a second straight line that links position A′ and position B′ is from 0° to 15°.
