June 1, 2005
A tyre (2) comprises a tread portion (4), a sidewall portion (6), a bead portion (8), a carcass portion (10), an inner liner (12) and a chafer (14). The carcass portion (10) is formed by a first carcass ply (22) and a second carcass ply (24). The absolute values of the angles of the cords of the carcass plies (22) and (24) in a circumferential direction are 25 to 38 degrees. The bead portion (8) is constituted by a bead core (18) and a bead apex (20) extended outward in a radial direction from the bead core (18). A complex elastic modulus E* of the bead apex (20) measured on a condition that a temperature is 70 DEG C, a frequency is 10 Hz and an amplitude is 2% is equal to or greater than 80 MPa.
