Abstract
A tread pattern of a pneumatic tire includes a pair of circumferential grooves and a plurality of siped lug grooves extending in a tire width direction between the pair of circumferential grooves and disposed at intervals in the tire circumferential direction. Each of the siped lug grooves includes a lug groove extending from a first circumferential groove of the pair of circumferential grooves and closed, and a sipe extending from a closed end of the lug groove toward a second circumferential groove and connected to the second circumferential groove. The plurality of siped lug grooves include at least one first siped lug groove extending while bending with an extension direction of the lug groove differing from an extension direction of the sipe, and at least one second siped lug groove extending linearly with the extension direction of the lug groove aligning with the extension direction of the sipe.
