Pneumatic tire

Abstract

A pneumatic tire includes at least one land portion on a tread surface. A plurality of micro sipes are disposed in at least one of the land portions. The micro sipes each have a first element and a second element extending in a direction different from the first element from one end of the first element. An extension length of the second element is shorter than an extension length of the first element. One end of the first element and one end of the second element are in communication. The other end of the first element terminates within the land portion. The other end of the second element terminates within the land portion. A minimum sipe depth h2 in the extension direction of the second element is smaller than a maximum sipe depth h1 in the extension direction of the first element.
