Abstract
The tire includes a tread portion provided with a first tread edge, a shoulder circumferential groove, and a shoulder land region. The shoulder land region includes an inner area demarcated axially inside from a center position in the tire axial direction of the shoulder land region, an outer area demarcated axially outside from the center position, and a plurality of shoulder axial grooves extending in the tire axial direction at least in the outer area. In a standard tire load loaded state, an average ground contact pressure in the outer area is larger than an average ground contact pressure in the inner area.
