Pneumatic tire

A pneumatic tire comprising:

• a reinforcing rubber layer disposed in sidewall portions on both sides in a tire width direction, the reinforcing rubber layer having a substantially crescent-like meridian cross-section;
• wherein
• when the tire is assembled on a regular rim and in an unloaded state with an internal pressure of 0 kPa,
• a radius of curvature RP is smaller than a radius of curvature RO, an arc of the radius of curvature RP joining an intersection Pa of a carcass layer and a straight line La, an intersection Pb of the carcass layer and a straight line Lb, and an intersection Pc of the carcass layer and a straight line Lc, and an arc of the radius of curvature RO joining an intersection Oa of the straight line La and a tire external contour, an intersection Ob of the straight line Lb and the tire external contour, and an intersection Oc of the straight line Lc and the tire external contour, where
• the straight line Lc is a straight line orthogonal to a tire equatorial plane at a portion of the tire with a maximum width when viewed in a meridian cross section,
• the straight line La is a straight line from an intersection of the straight line Lc and the tire equatorial plane inclined by 10° outward in a tire radial direction with respect to the straight line Lc,
• the straight line Lb is a straight line from the intersection of the straight line Lc and the tire equatorial plane inclined by 10° inward in the tire radial direction with respect to the straight line Lc,
• a relationship between a cross-sectional width Aip, a cross-sectional width Apo, a cross-sectional width Bip, and a cross-sectional width Bpo satisfies:
• Bip/Bpo<Aip/Apo≤Bip/Bpo×5.0 and Bip>Bpo, where
• the cross-sectional width Aip is the cross-sectional width from the intersection Ia of the straight line La and the tire internal contour to the intersection Pa of the straight line La and the carcass layer, within which the reinforcing rubber layer is disposed,
• the cross-sectional width Apo is the cross-sectional width from the intersection Pa to the intersection Oa of the straight line La and the tire external contour,
• the cross-sectional width Bip is a cross-sectional width from an intersection Ib of the straight line Lb and the tire internal contour to the intersection Pb of the straight line Lb and the carcass layer, within which the reinforcing rubber layer is disposed, and
• the cross-sectional width Bpo is a cross-sectional width from the intersection Pb to the intersection Ob of the straight line Lb and the tire external contour.
