Abstract
A pneumatic tire is provided that can achieve performance that is equivalent to or higher than that of known tires while allowing weight reduction of bead cores by using, for the bead cores, a composite cord. A pneumatic tire includes annular bead cores (5) embedded in bead portions (3), and a carcass layer (4) locked on the bead cores (5). Each of the bead cores (5) includes a cable bead structure in which a composite cord (10) is spirally wound around an annular core body (20), the composite cord including a core wire (11) formed of carbon fibers and a plurality of siding wires (12) formed of glass fibers disposed around the core wire (11).
