ABSTRACT:
A heavy duty pneumatic tire possessing excellent wet-running performances and wear resistance comprises a tread portion provided at its surface with a plurality of main grooves arranged on both sides with respect to an equatorial plane at a given interval in a circumferential direction of the tire and has a negative ratio of not more than 0.3. In this tire, the main grooves curvedly extend in a converging direction from each side end of the tread toward the equatorial plane and terminate on the equatorial plane or in the vicinity thereof within 25% of a tread width (W) centering around the equatorial plane so as to meet the terminals of opposed main grooves with each other or somewhat separate away them from each other and have particular inclination angle (.alpha.), and continuously projection lengths (L.sub.1, L.sub.2) in the widthwise and circumferential directions.
