RUBBER COMPOSITION FOR USE IN TIRES, AND PNEUMATIC TIRE

The present invention provides a rubber composition for a tire, which improves in fuel economy, wet grip performance, and abrasion resistance; and a pneumatic tire using the same. The present invention relates to a rubber composition for a tire, including: a rubber component including a modified styrene butadiene rubber that contains a constitutional unit derived from a specific nitrogen-containing compound in a main chain; silica; and a specific silane coupling agent.
