Abstract: A pneumatic tire of the present disclosure includes, on a tread surface, a plurality of circumferential main grooves extending in the tire circumferential direction, and a plurality of land portions defined between circumferential main grooves adjacent in the tire width direction among the plurality of circumferential main grooves or by the circumferential main grooves and tread edges. The land portions include at least one circumferential sipe extending in the tire circumferential direction. The circumferential sipe includes a plurality of widened portions arranged in the tire circumferential direction. In a reference state, each widened portion is formed only from a portion that, from one side towards the other side in the tire circumferential direction, extends from the tread surface inward in the tire radial direction.

Abstract: A pneumatic tire includes, in a land portion, at least one circumferential sipe extending in the tire circumferential direction. At a first position, from the tread surface towards the sipe bottom, the sipe width gradually decreases from the tread surface to a first changing point and then gradually increases from the first changing point to the sipe bottom. At a second position, from the tread surface towards the sipe bottom, the sipe width gradually increases from the tread surface to a second changing point and then gradually decreases from the second changing point to the sipe bottom. The sipe width at the tread surface and at the sipe bottom gradually decreases in the tire circumferential direction from the first position towards the second position, and the sipe width in a tire radial intermediate portion gradually increases in the tire circumferential direction from the first position towards the second position.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a tire possessing improved partial wear resistance by optimizing shapes and dimensions of a block land portion and its position and arrangement. The tire has plural block land portion arrays 5 formed by a large number of block land portions 4 defined on a tread portion 1. Between two block land portion arrays 5 located adjacent to each other across the circumferential groove 2, the block land portions 4 constituting the block land portion arrays 5 are arranged on the tread portion 1 so as to be positionally displaced from each other in the circumferential direction of the tire; a groove 6 between the block land portions adjacent to each other in the width direction of the tire extends obliquely with respect to the width and circumferential directions of the tire.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a tire possessing improved wear resistance by optimizing configurations of block land portions. The tire is configured such that, in at least two adjacent block land portion arrays 5 sandwiching a circumferential groove 2, adjacent block land portions 4 constituting the block land portion arrays 5 are arranged so as to be positionally displaced from each other in the tire circumferential direction; and a distance d2 between the block land portions adjacent in the tire width direction is shorter than a distance d1 between the block land portions adjacent in the tire circumferential direction. A groove portion 8 between the block land portions adjacent in the tire width direction extends obliquely with respect to the tire width direction and the tire circumferential direction.

Abstract: An object the present invention is to provide a tire having a rib-like land portion and sipes provided therein, in which wear resistance has been enhanced by optimizing the shape of the sipes, while good fraction performance on a wet road surface is maintained.

Abstract: An object the present invention is to provide a tire, in which wear resistance has been enhanced by optimizing the shape and location of block land portions. The tire has plural rows 5 of block land portions 4 formed by demarcation by providing plural circumferential grooves 2 extending along tire circumferential direction and plural lateral grooves 3 for communicating adjacent two circumferential grooves 2,2 with each other; in at least two rows 5 of block land portions adjacent to each other with a circumferential groove therebetween, among the rows 5 of block land portions 4, the respective rows 5 of block land portions 4 are disposed to be offset with respect to each other in the tire circumferential direction.

Abstract: A component Fin toward an axial inner direction of the tire which is an opposite direction from an axial outer direction of the tire is applied to a force acting on a kicking end 16B of a land portion 16. With this, abrasion of the kicking end of the land portion can be moderated, and a biased abrasion resistance can be enhanced. A groove wall 20 of a lug groove 14 is provided with a step portion 22, a tread side groove width WA in a tread side of the step portion is widened toward an axial outer side of the tire, and a width WS of the step portion 22 is increased toward the axial outer side of the tire, thereby suppressing the lift from the road surface 26 at the tread-in end 16A of the land portion 16.

Abstract: A pneumatic tire maintaining excellent traction performance for the entire life of the tire. The tire (10) has blocks (18) each demarcated by both a circumferential groove formed in the tread and lateral grooves crossing the circumferential groove, and also has recessed parts (20). Each recessed part (20) is formed in at least one of those both wall surfaces of each block (18) that are oriented to the lateral direction of the tire, and the circumferential width (C) of each recessed part (20) is increased from the tread side of the block (18) toward the radially inside of the tire. Because the edge effect of the blocks (18) at the portions between the lateral grooves and the recessed parts (20) can be maintained in an excellent state even if the wear of the tire (10) progresses, the edge effect of the entire blocks can be maintained in an excellent state, and excellent traction performance can be maintained for the entire life of the tire.
