PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a pneumatic tire that is suitable as a tire travelling on an unpaved road, which can improve travelling performance on an unpaved road, cut resistance and uniformity compatible with good balance.SOLUTION: Side blocks are provided at extension positions in a tire width direction of shoulder blocks, and the side blocks are configured in a L shape in which radial parts extending in a tire radial direction and circumferential parts extending in a tire circumferential direction are connected to each other in a hook shape. Of the side blocks, first blocks in which the circumferential parts are pointed toward the shoulder blocks and second blocks in which the radial parts are pointed toward the shoulder blocks are made to oppose to each other to form a pair so that respective circumferential parts of the blocks overlap with each other, and the pair of the side blocks constituted of the first blocks and the second blocks are arranged in the tire circumferential direction.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 【課題】未舗装路走行用タイヤとして好適な空気入りタイヤであって、未舗装路での走行性能と耐カット性とユニフォミティとをバランスよく改善することを可能にした空気入りタイヤを提供する。【解決手段】ショルダーブロックのタイヤ幅方向側の延長位置にそれぞれサイドブロックを設け、各サイドブロックをタイヤ径方向に延在する径方向部分とタイヤ周方向に延在する周方向部分とが鉤状に連結されたＬ字形状に構成し、サイドブロックのうち周方向部分がショルダーブロック側を向いた第一ブロックと径方向部分がショルダーブロック側を向いた第二ブロックとをそれぞれの周方向部分が重複するように対向させて対を成すようにして、これら第一ブロックと第二ブロックとからなるサイドブロック対をタイヤ周方向に配列する。【選択図】図２
