Abstract
A tire that can suppress an unused tire from giving an impression like a worn tire as compared with a case where the brightness of a tread surface and the brightness of a bottom surface of a groove are the same is obtained. The tread portion includes a tread portion including a tread surface and a groove that partitions the tread surface; and a plurality of protrusions that protrude from a bottom surface of the groove at a height of from 0.1 mm to 1.0 mm and are arranged at an interval of from more than 0.1 mm to 1.0 mm. A ratio of a height of the protrusions to a depth of the groove (protrusion height/groove depth) is from 0.02 to 0.2 mm.
