Publication number: 20230219375Abstract: A tire includes a first circumferential main groove 11 and a second circumferential main groove 12 in a tread surface 1. A resonator 21 is formed in an intermediate land portion 20 partitioned between the first circumferential main groove and the second circumferential main groove. The resonator has an auxiliary groove 211 whose both ends terminate within the intermediate land portion. The groove depths D1 of the first and second circumferential main grooves are 50% or less of the groove widths W2 of the first and second circumferential main grooves, respectively. The groove width W3 of the auxiliary groove of the resonator is 80% or less of the groove depth D1 of the first circumferential main groove.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 6, 2021Publication date: July 13, 2023Applicant: BRIDGESTONE CORPORATIONInventors: Yoshiki NAKATA, Mayuko KARASAWA
