Abstract:
A pneumatic tire is provided with improved braking performance and turning performance on ice. Circumferential narrow grooves are disposed at a density in the tire width direction of not less than 0.06 grooves/mm and not more than 0.2 grooves/mm. Width direction narrow grooves extend at an angle with respect to the tire width direction of not less than −45° and not more than +45°. The circumferential narrow grooves have at least one bent portion. The bend angle of the bent portion is not less than 40° and not more than 160°.
