PNEUMATIC TIRE

Provided is a pneumatic tire having a high partial wear resistance and a low rolling resistance. In a cross section in a tire width direction when the tire is mounted on a prescribed rim (7), a belt has a flat shape in the tire width direction, the height (SWh) of the position where the tire width is the maximum is more than half the cross-sectional height (SH) of the tire, and a path length (CSR 1 ) of the carcass from an intersection (I 1 ) between a line segment bisecting a radial distance (CHS) between the radially outermost end of the carcass (2) and radially outermost end of the bead core (1) and extending parallel to a rotation axis of the tire, and the carcass, to an intersection (I 2 ) between a line segment drawn perpendicular from an end in the width direction of the narrowest slant belt layer (3a) to the rotation axis of the tire, and the carcass (2), is longer than a path length (CSR 2 ) of the carcass from the intersection (I 1 ) to an intersection (I 3 ) between a line segment connecting the radially outer most ends of both of the bead cores 1 and the carcass (2).
