Pneumatic tire and method of manufacturing same

A pneumatic tire mounted with surface fastener members for attaching an object to a tire inner circumferential surface, comprising:

• a tread portion, a carcass layer, a plurality of belt layers on an outer circumferential side of the carcass layer in the tread portion, the belt layers each including a plurality of reinforcing cords that are inclined with respect to a tire circumferential direction so that the reinforcing cords of adjacent belt layers intersect each other, the inclination angle of the reinforcing cords being within a range of 10 to 40 degrees;
• at least eight surface fastener members having an intermittent arrangement on a tread inner circumferential surface of the tread portion,
• the surface fastener members having a uniform cross-sectional dimension,
• an overall band shape, and
• a length in a tire axial direction from 105% to 120% of a maximum belt width of the belt layers of the pneumatic tire;
• wherein
• an angle θ between a longitudinal direction of the surface fastener members and the tire axial direction is from 10 to 45 degrees;
• and
• an installation period in the tire circumferential direction is from 80% to 150% of the length in the tire axial direction of the surface fastener members.
