ABSTRACT:
To maintain excellent antiwet skidding performance and good tire external appearance until a radial tire for heavy-duty road vehicles serves its time, a plurality of narrow grooves (40) are formed along at least longitudinal direction of each of plural platforms arranged at intervals in circumferential direction of each of land portions formed between two main circumferential grooves, in order to separate the platform from the tire land portion. This is because the narrow grooves serve to decrease the rigidity of the platforms and therfore to allow the platforms to be more slidably movable relative to the ground to increase abrasion rate on the platform surface, thus maintaining a height difference between the tire land portions and the platforms.
