Abstract
A rubber composition comprises as rubber components (A) 30-95 wt. % of an end-modified styrene-butadiene copolymer and (B) 70-5 wt. % of a diene rubber other than the end-modified styrene-butadiene copolymer (A). The end-modified styrene-butadiene copolymer (A) is obtained by reacting at least one compound to active terminals of a starting styrene-butadiene copolymer containing butadiene moieties, the trans-1,4 bond content of which is 70-95 wt. %, and having a styrene content of 5-60 wt. %. The at least one compound is selected from N-substituted aminoketones, N-substituted thioaminoketones, N-substituted aminoaldehydes, N-substituted thioaminoaldehydes and compounds containing in the molecules thereof an atomic group represented by the following formula: ##STR1## in which M stands for an oxygen or sulfur atom. The diene rubber (B) has a glass transition temperature higher than -60.degree. C.
