Abstract
A tire, for which a mounting direction on a vehicle is specified, has a tread portion comprising an outboard shoulder land region provided with outboard shoulder lateral grooves, and an inboard shoulder land region provided with inboard shoulder lateral grooves. The outboard shoulder lateral grooves are bent convexly toward one side in the tire circumferential direction, whereas the inboard shoulder lateral grooves are bent convexly toward the other side in the tire circumferential direction. The bent angle of the outboard shoulder lateral groove is larger than the bent angle of the inboard shoulder lateral groove.
