Tire

A tire having in a tread surface thereof plural circumferential grooves extending in the tire circumferential direction, characterized in that:

• each of respective circumferential grooves disposed on the outermost side in the tire widthwise direction, of the circumferential grooves, is designed to have a section in the tire widthwise direction in which an angle formed by a groove wall on the outer side in the tire widthwise direction, with respect to a straight line tangent to a tread contour at the opening edge on the outer side in the tire widthwise direction of said groove, is larger than an angle formed by a groove wall on the tire equatorial side in the tire widthwise direction, with respect to a straight line tangent to a tread contour at the opening edge on the tire equatorial side in the tire widthwise direction of said groove;
• and
• each of said angles is in the range of 90° to 100° (inclusive of 90° and exclusive of 100°),
• wherein the number of the circumferential grooves is eight;
• a width of each land portion located on the outermost side in the tire widthwise direction, of land portions demarcated by said circumferential grooves and respective tread ends, is 20 to 40% of a half width of the tread;
• and
• a width of each of respective land portions adjacent to the respective land portions located on the outermost side in the tire widthwise direction, on the inner side in the tire widthwise direction thereof, is 60 to 80% of the width of each of the land portions located on the outermost side in the tire widthwise direction.
