Abstract:
A pneumatic tire is provided in the tread portion with a land portion including a conductive portion made of a conductive rubber. The conductive portion has a radially inner end electrically connected to a conductive tire internal structural to be connected to a wheel rim, and a radially outer end exposed in a ground contacting top surface of the land portion. The conductive portion extends from its radially inner end to outer end while inclining toward a first side surface of the land portion. The first side surface comprises a radially inner part, and a radially outer part extending radially outwardly from the radially inner part while inclining to the radially outer end of the conductive portion at an angle greater than the radially inner part.
