Abstract
A pneumatic tire includes a plurality of protrusion portions extending along a tire side surface of a tire side portion in a direction that intersects a tire circumferential direction and a tire radial direction; the plurality of protrusion portions each including an intermediate portion in an extension direction that includes a highest position of projection height from the tire side surface, and an end portion on either side of the intermediate portion in the extension direction that includes a lowest position of projection height from the tire side surface. The highest position of projection height of the intermediate portion is in a range of 20% of a tire cross-sectional height from a tire maximum width position to an inner side and an outer side in the tire radial direction, and a ratio of a total width SW and an outer diameter OD satisfies a relationship of SW/OD≤0.3.
