Abstract

In a tire, a tread includes a cap layer forming a part of an outer surface of the tire, a base layer disposed inwardly of the cap layer in a radial direction, and an intermediate layer disposed between the cap layer and the base layer in the radial direction. A loss tangent of the intermediate layer at 30° C. is less than a loss tangent of the cap layer at 30° C. and a loss tangent of the base layer at 30° C. is less than the loss tangent of the intermediate layer at 30° C. The tread includes at least two three-layer body portions formed of the cap layer, the intermediate layer, and the base layer, and at least one two-layer body portion that is formed of the cap layer and the base layer and disposed between a first three-layer body portion and a second three-layer body portion.
