Abstract: A tire having coffee grains of the present invention includes a tire adhesive layer, which is a solid-state colloid at least formed by raw rubber. The solid-state colloid is disposed with a plurality of coffee particles, and each of the coffee particles is a structure having multiple micro gaps. Under a condition of maintaining the structural strength unaffected, the coffee particles having the micro gaps and mainly consisted of a hydrocarbon are capable of eliminating odor of the tire adhesive layer. Thus, using more aggressive and reliable means, the present invention alleviates the odor of conventional tires and the resultant discomfort as well as possible toxic reactions.
