This pneumatic tire includes bead cores formed by winding a bead wire. In a cross-sectional view of the bead core, the bead core has a wire array structure of a hexagon formed by winding the bead wires in a close-packed manner. The hexagon is a projecting hexagon with an obtuse internal angle at every vertex. A layer number M of wire cross sections in a Y-axis direction and a maximum value N_max of an array number N of the wire cross sections in an X-axis direction satisfy 0.75≤M/N_max≤1.30. A distance A in a lateral direction from a vertex of the hexagon on the innermost side in the lateral direction to the centroid of the hexagon, and a distance B in the lateral direction from a vertex of the hexagon on the outermost side in the lateral direction to the centroid of the hexagon, satisfy 1.05≤B/A.
