Claims1
An aircraft tire, comprising:
- a plurality of ribs that are provided at a tread portion, and that are demarcated by circumferential direction grooves that extend in a tire circumferential direction;
- and
- sipes that are formed in a tire transverse direction in the respective ribs, and that have tire circumferential direction positions that differ in ribs that are adjacent to one another in the tire transverse direction;
- wherein
- the ribs comprise a wide rib and a narrow rib having a smaller width than the wide rib;
- an interval between the sipes in the tire circumferential direction in the wide rib is equal to an interval between the sipes in the tire circumferential direction in the narrow rib;
- among the ribs that are adjacent to one another in the tire transverse direction, the sipes of one of the ribs are formed at intermediate positions of a tire circumferential direction pitch of the sipes of another of the ribs;
- and
- tire circumferential direction positions of the sipes of one rib are furthest apart from the tire circumferential direction positions of the sipes of the adjacent rib.
