Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A pneumatic tire includes a tread having at least one main groove and a plurality of ribs extending in the tire-circumferential direction. At least one of the ribs has a plurality of narrow grooves formed at intervals in the tire-circumferential direction. At least one intermittent sipe is formed corresponding to at least one of the narrow grooves. The narrow grooves are grooves each having a portion extending substantially along the tire-circumferential direction and having a groove width smaller than the at least one main groove. The at least one intermittent sipe has a plurality of holes that are intermittently formed, and at least one solid part located between adjacent two of the holes. The holes and the solid part are arranged in a direction intersecting the narrow grooves. The intermittent sipe intersects the corresponding narrow groove in the at least one solid part.
