Abstract
A non-pneumatic tire () includes three or more tubular bodies () and a plurality of elastically deformable connecting members () interconnecting the tubular bodies () and disposed along a tire circumferential direction in each annular space () provided between the tubular bodies () adjacent to each other in a tire radial direction. The tubular bodies () are provided with an inner tube () positioned on an innermost side in the tire radial direction and attached to an axle, an outer tube () positioned on an outermost side in the tire radial direction, and an elastically deformable intermediate tube () positioned between the inner tube () and the outer tube (). The connecting member () is provided with a pair of connecting plates (and) having both end portions in the tire radial direction directly connected to the tubular body () and extending in the tire radial direction and separated in the tire circumferential direction from an outside toward an inside in the tire radial direction. A position (P) of connection to the pair of connecting plates (and) connected to the intermediate tube () from the outside in the tire radial direction and a position (P) of connection to the pair of connecting plates (and) connected to the intermediate tube () from the inside in the tire radial direction are shifted in the tire circumferential direction in the intermediate tube ().
