Abstract
A pneumatic tire has a tread pattern which comprises at least three circumferential grooves with a groove width of 6 to 18 mm and a groove depth of 6.0 to 16.0 mm extending in a tire circumferential direction, wherein, on groove walls on both sides forming the at least three circumferential grooves, first inclined walls inclined by an inclination angle of 5 to 20 degrees with respect to the tire circumferential direction and second inclined walls inclined by an inclination angle of 0 to 45 degrees with respect to a tire width direction are provided so as to be successively connected in the tire circumferential direction so that positions of groove ends in the tire width direction vary in the tire circumferential direction.
