Abstract

A rubber composition for use in pneumatic radial tires is disclosed which comprises specified amounts of polybutadiene rubber, natural rubber and/or polyisoprene rubber and carbonblack. The polybutadiene rubber has in the molecular chain at least one atomic group of the formula ##STR1## wherein R is OH or SH and the carbonblack has a selected iodine adsorption, whereby a radial tire is rendered highly resistant to flex, to crack growth and to external damage and extremely low in hysteresis loss and in rolling resistance.
