It is formed around. Therefore, a step surface 46 </ b> A facing the tire circumferential direction S is formed between the flat outer wall portion 46 and the step portion 44.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the stepped outer wall portion 48 constitutes a wall on the tire shoulder side of the shoulder main body portion 42, and the three steps in order from the tire width direction grounding end 12 </ b> E toward the outside in the tire width direction W.

Every two stepped outer wall portions 58 may be arranged or may be arranged randomly.

Next, the effect of the pneumatic tire 10 of this embodiment is demonstrated.
On the tire equatorial plane CL of the pneumatic tire 10 of the present embodiment, a linear straight main groove 16 is formed in the tire circumferential direction S between the groove edge 24B and the groove edge 34B. Therefore, drainage and mud drainage can be improved.

  Further, the first block row 20 and the second block row 30 of the pneumatic tire 10 overlap in the tire width direction W. Therefore, the traction performance of the tire can be improved on a rough road in which earth or sand enters between the first groove inclined wall portion 26 and the second groove inclined wall portion 36.

  Further, the first groove inclined wall portion 26 of the first block 22 is formed with a projection 28, formed from the groove edge 24 </ b> B toward the tip, and the second groove inclined wall portion 36 of the second block 32. A protrusion 38 is formed on the surface. Therefore, the traction performance of the tire can be further improved.

  Further, the front end 26A of the first block 22 and the front end 36A of the second block 32 according to the present embodiment are disposed closer to the second body portion 34 than the groove edge 34B of the second block 32, and the front end of the second block 32. 36 </ b> A is disposed closer to the first main body portion 24 than the groove edge 24 </ b> B of the first block 22. Therefore, the traction performance of the tire can be further improved.

  Moreover, the 1st groove | channel inclination wall part 26 of this embodiment and the 2nd groove | channel inclination wall part 36 are comprised by the curved surface which has a center of curvature in the block outer side. Therefore, the surfaces of the first groove inclined wall portion 26 and the second groove inclined wall portion 36 are widened, and the traction performance can be improved. Moreover, the volume of the groove | channel between the adjacent groove | channel edges 24B and 34B becomes large, and can also improve drainage performance and mud drainage performance.

  Moreover, the 1st groove | channel inclination wall part 26 and the 2nd groove | channel inclination wall part 36 taper toward the tire width direction front-end | tip. Generally, as the tread 12 wears, the area of the block increases and the block rigidity increases. Thus, by adopting a configuration in which the edge in the tire circumferential direction S becomes shorter as the wear of the tread 12 progresses, the contact pressure at the edge portion in the tire circumferential direction can be increased. Further, as wear of the tread 12 progresses, an edge portion having a component in the tire width direction W becomes longer, so that traction performance can be maintained.

  Further, the protrusions 28 and 38 are also tapered toward the front end in the tire width direction. Therefore, in the same manner as described above, the edge in the tire circumferential direction S becomes shorter and the edge having the component in the tire width direction W becomes longer as the wear of the tread 12 progresses, thereby increasing the contact pressure of the edge portion. Traction performance can be maintained.

  Further, since the protrusions 28 and 38 of the present embodiment are formed from the groove edges 24B and 34B, the edges can be secured when the tread 12 is worn. Further, since the protrusions 28 and 38 terminate in the first groove inclined wall portion 26 and the second groove inclined wall portion 36, the groove volume of the zigzag main groove 14 can be secured.

  Further, the protrusion 28 is formed so that the upper surface 28B is located closer to the first block 22 than the straight line connecting the groove edge 24B and the tip 28A when viewed from the tire circumferential direction S. Further, the upper surface 38B of the protrusion 38 is formed so as to be closer to the second block 32 side than the straight line connecting the groove edge 34B and the tip 38A when viewed from the tire circumferential direction S. Therefore, the groove volume of the straight main groove 16 can be secured.

  Further, the inclination angle of the inner inclined wall portion 43 is larger on the tire width direction grounding end 12E side than on the tire equatorial plane CL side. Accordingly, even when mud enters the lug groove 18A, it is possible to facilitate drainage from the tire equatorial plane CL side having a small inclination angle of the inner inclined wall portion 43 to the tire width direction ground contact end 12E side having a large inclination angle. it can.

  In addition, the angle of the lower end side of the inner inclined wall portion 43 along the lug groove 18A with respect to the tire circumferential direction S decreases from the tire width direction grounding end 12E side toward the tire equatorial plane CL side. Therefore, drainage and mud drainage can be secured on the tire equatorial plane CL side in the inner inclined wall portion 43, and traction performance can be improved on the tire width direction ground contact end 12E side.

  In addition, since the stepped portion 44 of the present embodiment extends and terminates outward in the tire width direction from the tire width direction grounding end 12E, the stepped portion 44 is disposed on the outer side in the tire width direction W from the tire width direction grounded end 12E. Thus, the traction performance can be improved.

  Further, since the flat outer wall portion 46 and the curved step surfaces 48B, 48C and 48D are curved surfaces on the outside of the first shoulder block 41, the surfaces of the flat outer wall portion 46 and the curved step surfaces 48B, 48C and 48D are wide. Thus, the traction performance can be improved.

  Further, convex portions 49 </ b> A and 49 </ b> B are formed on some outer walls 45 of the first shoulder block 41 and the second shoulder block 51. Therefore, the area of the wall surface of the first shoulder block 41 and the second shoulder block 51 facing the outer side in the tire circumferential direction S is increased, and the traction performance can be improved.
