In a cross-sectional view of a pneumatic tire in the tire meridian direction, land sections, which are located on the inner side of left and right outermost circumferential main grooves in the tire width direction, have a first profile which protrudes outward in the tire radial direction. In addition, shoulder land sections, which are located on the outer side of the right and left outermost circumferential main grooves in the tire width direction, have a second profile which protrudes inward in the tire radial direction within a ground contact surface. In addition, the distance between a line extending from the first profile in the ground contact surface of the shoulder land section and the second profile in the tire radial direction increases toward the outer side in the tire width direction.
