Abstract
Provided is a pneumatic tire which is capable of securing a driving stability on dry road surfaces and concurrently of improving snow performance without worsening its pattern noise. The pneumatic tire includes four main grooves each extending in its tread part in a tire circumferential direction, and the four main grooves partition the tread part into: a center land part; paired intermediate land parts located with the center land part being interposed in between; and paired shoulder land parts located with the center land part and the paired intermediate land parts being interposed in between. Each of the intermediate land parts and the shoulder land parts includes multiple V-shaped grooves each configured of: a thick groove part extending in a tire width direction; and a thin groove part extending in the tire circumferential direction. The V-shaped grooves are arranged in a way that each paired V-shaped grooves are opposed to each other in the tire circumferential direction with a connecting groove part being interposed between vertices of the respective paired V-shaped grooves. Each thick groove part communicates with the main grooves or the outside of a ground contacting area. Each thin groove part terminates within the land part.
