Tire for running on rough terrain

A tire for running on rough terrain for which an intended tire rotational direction is specified, comprising:

• a tread portion provided with a first block having a ground contacting top surface and a base cross sectional shape which is the shape of the first block at the base of the first block in a cross section parallel with the ground contacting top surface, wherein
• the ground contacting top surface has a polygonal shape having a heel-side oblique edge inclined with respect to the tire axial direction,
• the base cross sectional shape is a polygon having a heel-side axial edge extending in the tire axial direction,
• in the top view of the first block, an angle θa formed between the heel-side oblique edge and the heel-side axial edge is in a range from 5 to 45 degrees,
• the polygonal shape of the ground contacting top surface and the polygon of the base cross sectional shape are the same in the number of sides, and the first block has a portion twisted gradually from the ground contacting top surface toward the radially inside,
• a first cross section of the first block being parallel with the ground contacting top surface at ⅓ of the height of the first block, and a second cross section of the first block being parallel with the ground contacting top surface at ⅔ of the height of the first block, respectively have polygonal shapes which are the same in the number of sides as the base cross sectional shape,
• the first block has a heel-side side surface which extends from the heel-side oblique edge to the heel-side axial edge, while defining a first virtual edge of the first cross section in the heel-side side surface and a second virtual edge of the second cross section in the heel-side side surface, and
• in the top view of the first block,
• the first virtual edge is inclined with respect to the heel-side axial edge at an angle θb smaller than the angle θa,
• the second virtual edge is inclined with respect to the heel-side axial edge at an angle θc smaller than the angle θa and large than the angle θb, and
• a difference θc−θb between the angle θc and the angle θb is greater than the angle θb.
