A pneumatic tire includes a band-like sound absorbing member adhered on an inner surface of a tread portion along the tire circumferential direction. Cuts are formed on the band-like sound absorbing member mutually intersecting such that angles θ1, θ2 with regard to the tire width direction are within a range where 0°≤θ1≤90° or 0°≤θ2≤90°. The cuts are locally disposed in a region adjacent to an end portion on a vehicle inner side of the band-like sound absorbing member. A width of the placement region of the cuts is from 10% to 80% with regard to a width of the band-like sound absorbing member.
