Pneumatic tires (1), comprising: a bead core (11) formed from one or more
tire bead wires (111) which are wound in a ring shape and multiple times; a carcass layer (13) formed from one or more carcass
layers, wherein the carcass layer (13) is folded over so that it wraps around the bead core (11) and extends over the bead core (11); a wheel rim pad rubber (17) arranged along a folded-over section (132) of the carcass layer (13) to form a rim
mating surface of a bead section, wherein the bead core (11) has a predetermined wire arrangement structure formed by arranging a wire cross-section of the
tire bead wire (111) in a cross-sectional view in a tire meridian direction, The following is determined in the wire arrangement structure: a tangent line L1, which touches an innermost wire layer in a tire radial direction and the innermost and outermost wire cross-sections in a tire transverse direction from one side of the rim
mating surface; contact points C1, C2 on the tangent line L1; a center point Cm of the contact points C1, C2; and thicknesses G1, G2 and Gm in the tire radial direction between the contact points C1, C2 and the center point Cm and the rim
mating surface. The rates of change ΔG1, ΔG2 and ΔGm of the thicknesses G1, G2 and Gm before and after rim mounting are each in a range of 10 (%) to 60 (%); wherein a layer with the largest number of wire cross-sections in the wire arrangement structure is determined as a maximum arrangement layer, the number of
layers of wire cross-section on the outside of the maximum arrangement layer in the tire radial direction is greater than the number of
layers of wire cross-section on the inside of the maximum arrangement layer in the tire radial direction and The number of wire cross-sections in each layer on the outside of the maximum arrangement layer decreases monotonically from the maximum arrangement layer towards the outside in the tire radial direction.
