On each pattern block 5 to 7 of present embodiment, be provided with and overlook the rill 22 extending along tire axial with crank-like roughly while observation.Such rill 22 can reduce the tire circumferential lengths of each pattern block 5 to 7, suppresses tire rolling and the slippage that produces.
High and suppress slippage in order to ensure the rigidity of each pattern block 5 to 7, the width W 7 of rill is preferably 1.0~3.0mm left and right.Equally, shown in depth D 7(Fig. 2 of rill) be preferably about 1.0~4.0mm.
On center running lug 5, middle pattern block 6 and pattern block on tire shoulder 7, be provided with chamfered section m, this chamfered section m is that top and each tap drain 3 that each tap drain 3 and each traverse furrow 4 are intersected cut rear formation with the top that rill 22 intersects obliquely with general triangular shape.Such chamfered section m can improve the rigidity of each pattern block 5 to 7, and inhibition becomes, and pattern block is damaged, the starting point of partial wear.
