Abstract
Provided is a pneumatic tire. In shoulder regions of a tread portion, as shoulder blocks, inner blocks and outer blocks, which have outer edges in a tire lateral direction at different positions on a tread contact surface, are alternately disposed in a tire circumferential direction. In shoulder grooves disposed between the inner blocks and outer blocks adjacent to each other in the tire circumferential direction, groove bottom protrusions, which extend from a laterally inner side to a laterally outer side in the tire lateral direction along the shoulder grooves over the positions of the outer edges of the inner blocks, are provided. Broad width portions having a relatively broad protrusion width of the groove bottom protrusions are disposed on a laterally outer side in the tire lateral direction with respect to the outer edges of the inner blocks in a front view.
