Abstract
A pneumatic tire comprises a sidewall portion provided in the outer surface thereof with an embossed mark. The embossed mark has a top surface axially outwardly away from the outer surface, a side surface extending from the outer surface to the top surface, an outside edge at which the side surface intersects with the top surface to form an outside corner, and an inside edge at which the side surface intersects with the outer surface to form an inside corner. The outside edge has a circumferential segment extending parallel with the tire circumferential direction, and the inside edge has a nearly-circumferential segment positioned oppositely to the circumferential segment and extending at an angle of from 0.5 to 2.5 degrees so that a warped plane is formed between the circumferential segment and nearly-circumferential segment.
