PNEUMATIC TIRE

On a pneumatic tire, a sound absorbing member is installed on an inner surface of a tread portion via a surface fastener including a pair including a hook member and a loop member, the hook member including hook-shaped elements on one surface and being fixed to the tire inner surface, and the loop member being provided with loop-shaped elements engageable with the hook-shaped elements and being fixed to the sound absorbing member. In a meridian cross-section, the loop member has at least one section partially fixed in a tire width direction to the sound absorbing member. Given a fixed region in which the loop member is fixed to the sound absorbing member, and a non-fixed region in which the loop member is not fixed to the sound absorbing member, an engaging region in which the loop member and the hook member engage each other is on the non-fixed region.
