Abstract
Provided is a pneumatic tire having excellent durability and driving stability during high-speed running of the vehicle (that is, during high-speed rotation of the tire). The pneumatic tire includes: a carcass; an intersecting belt which is provided on the outer circumference side of a crown portion of the carcass and formed of two inclined belt layers having cords inclined and extending in a direction intersecting each other across a tire equatorial plane; and a circumferential belt layer which is provided on either one of the inner side and the outer side of the intersecting belt in the tire radial direction and includes a spiral cord arranged as being spirally wound at an inclination angle of equal to or smaller than 5 degrees to the tire equatorial plane. Of the two inclined belt layers forming the intersecting belt, the cords in a first inclined belt layer are inclined at an inclination angle that falls within the range of 45 to 90 degrees relative to the tire equatorial plane, while the cords in a second inclined belt layer are inclined at an inclination angle that falls within the range of 15 to 45 degrees relative to the tire equatorial plane and is smaller than the inclination angle of the cords in the first inclined belt layer.
