The present invention aims to provide a tire with excellent durability. A tire includes a two or more layered belt layer, the belt layer including belt plies (38, 40) each including a steel monofilament (17A1, 17A2) and a coating rubber, the belt layer having a ratio of E2/E1 of less than 0.90, wherein, when viewed in a radial cross-section of the tire, E1 denotes the number (ends/10 mm) of steel monofilaments aligned per 10 mm in the tire width direction in a region of the belt ply having the largest width in the tire axial direction which extends from the tire equator to a point Q that is located at 80% of a distance L in the tire axial direction from the tire equator to a point P that is located at an outer edge, with respect to the tire width direction, of the belt ply having the largest width in the tire axial direction; and E2 denotes the number (ends/10 mm) of steel monofilaments aligned per 10 mm in the tire width direction in a region of the belt ply having the largest width in the tire axial direction which extends from the point Q to the point P, the belt layer having a distance S of 0.80 mm or more, wherein the distance S represents the distance in the tire radial direction between the outermost steel monofilament, with respect to the tire width direction, of the belt ply adjacent to the belt ply having the largest width in the tire axial direction and the steel monofilament of the belt ply having the largest width in the tire axial direction.
