Abstract: A pnuematic tire having a cap tread and a base tread is defined in way of material as follows:(1) said cap tread is made of a rubber material in which 100 pts. wt. of rubber component comprising at least 50 pts. wt. of natural rubber and/or polyisoprene rubber, at most 50 pts. wt. of polybutadiene rubber containing at most 20% of 1,2-bonding units and at most 50 pts. wt. of styrene-butadiene copolymer rubber containing at most 30 wt % of bonded styrene is incorporated with 50 to 100 pts. wt. of carbon black and with a softener in an amount satisfying the inequality;1.1X-44<y<1.1X-30,where y is the total amount of the softener in pts. Wt.; x is the amount of carbon black in pts. wt.; and an overall solubility parameter of the softener is in the range of from 8.0 to 9.0,(2) said base tread is made of a rubber material in which 100 pts. wt. of rubber component comprising at least 60 pts. wt. of natural rubber and/or polyisoprene rubber, at most 40 pts. wt.
