Abstract

A circumferential direction protrusion is provided extending longitudinally mainly along a tire circumferential direction on a side outward in a tire radial direction from a maximum tire width position on at least a first tire side portion of a tire.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A pneumatic tire, comprising a circumferential direction protrusion extending longitudinally mainly along a tire circumferential direction disposed in at least a first tire side portion outward in a tire radial direction from a maximum tire width position. 
     
     
         2 . The pneumatic tire according to  claim 2 , wherein a height that the circumferential direction protrusion protrudes from the tire side portion satisfies a range of not less than 3 mm and not more than 10 mm, and a width in a lateral direction satisfies a range of not less than 0.5 mm and not more than 5 mm. 
     
     
         3 . The pneumatic tire according to  claim 1 , wherein the circumferential direction protrusion is disposed on the first tire side portion, and a plurality of radial direction protrusions that extend longitudinally mainly along the tire radial direction is disposed on a second tire side portion. 
     
     
         4 . The pneumatic tire according to  claim 3 , wherein a height that the radial direction protrusions protrude from the tire side portion satisfies a range of not less than 1 mm and not more than 10 mm, a number of the radial direction protrusions disposed in the tire circumferential direction satisfies a range of not less than 10 and not more than 50, and a width in the lateral direction satisfies a range of not less than 0.5 mm and not more than 5 mm. 
     
     
         5 . The pneumatic tire according to  claim 1 , wherein a vehicle inner/outer orientation when mounted on a vehicle is designated, and the circumferential direction protrusion is disposed on the tire side portion on the vehicle outer side. 
     
     
         6 . The pneumatic tire according to  claim 2 , wherein the circumferential direction protrusion is disposed on the first tire side portion, and a plurality of radial direction protrusions that extend longitudinally mainly along the tire radial direction is disposed on a second tire side portion. 
     
     
         7 . The pneumatic tire according to  claim 6 , wherein a height that the radial direction protrusions protrude from the tire side portion satisfies a range of not less than 1 mm and not more than 10 mm, a number of the radial direction protrusions disposed in the tire circumferential direction satisfies a range of not less than 10 and not more than 50, and a width in the lateral direction satisfies a range of not less than 0.5 mm and not more than 5 mm. 
     
     
         8 . The pneumatic tire according to  claim 7 , wherein a vehicle inner/outer orientation when mounted on a vehicle is designated, and the circumferential direction protrusion is disposed on the tire side portion on the vehicle outer side. 
     
     
         9 . The pneumatic tire according to  claim 6 , wherein a vehicle inner/outer orientation when mounted on a vehicle is designated, and the circumferential direction protrusion is disposed on the tire side portion on the vehicle outer side. 
     
     
         10 . The pneumatic tire according to  claim 2 , wherein a vehicle inner/outer orientation when mounted on a vehicle is designated, and the circumferential direction protrusion is disposed on the tire side portion on the vehicle outer side.
