Abstract

In a tire, plural outer side cutouts, which respectively correspond to block land portions and extend toward tire width direction outer sides and end midway along outer side land portions, are formed so as to be spaced apart in a tire circumferential direction in tire width direction inner-side side walls, which are exposed to central circumferential grooves, of the outer side land portions that are provided further toward tire width direction outer sides than the two central circumferential grooves respectively. Further, at least portions of tire width direction inner side openings of the outer side cutouts are positioned between maximum position A, at which a tire width direction distance of a corresponding block land portion is a maximum, and an intermediate point B of two vertices that are adjacent at a tire width direction outer-side side wall of the block land portion.
