Abstract
A pneumatic tire includes a decorative portion on a tire side portion that is an outer surface of a sidewall portion. The decorative portion includes a plurality of ridges that extend along the tire side portion and are arranged side by side in the tire circumferential direction. The plurality of ridges include a common form of an inclination angle in the tire circumferential direction with respect to the tire radial direction and an interval between a pair of the plurality of ridges adjacent. The plurality of ridges constitute a ridge group. Three or more ridge groups are provided and the plurality of ridges of the different ridge groups are arranged intersecting one another. Accordingly, the pneumatic tire can reduce poor appearance of the sidewall portion.
