Abstract:
A center rib is formed by two circumferential main grooves. A main inclined groove and an auxiliary inclined groove are formed in the center rib. The main inclined groove is inclined with respect to the tire circumferential direction to become distanced from the tire equatorial plane from a leading side toward a trailing side in a tire rotational direction, a plurality of the main inclined grooves being juxtaposed in the tire circumferential direction and disposed alternately in the tire circumferential direction on both sides of the tire equatorial plane. The auxiliary inclined groove inclines with respect to the tire circumferential direction to become distanced from the tire equatorial plane from the leading side toward the trailing side in the tire rotational direction, a leading end and a trailing end terminating within the center rib while intersecting at least two of the main inclined grooves.
