Abstract
To provide a pneumatic tire that provides improved driving performance on unpaved roads and cut resistance. High blocks and low blocks with different raised heights are provided as side blocks provided in a side region. One of the high blocks and one of the low blocks adjacent to each other in a tire circumferential direction are defined as a block pair. The high block and the low block included in the block pair are partially in contact with each other. Thus, a side groove between these blocks is a closed groove. In each block pair, a pair of contour lines (a first linear portion, a second linear portion, and a third linear portion) define edges on both sides, in the tire circumferential direction, of a top surface of each of the high block and the low block.
