Disclosed is a pneumatic tire, in which turbulent flow-creating ridges extending from the inner circumference side to the outer circumference side are formed at intervals in the tire circumference direction on the tire surface of a tire side part, wherein: said turbulent flow-creating ridges have edge parts, as viewed in the sectional shape 
cut in the radial direction; the front wall angle, which is made between the front wall faces of the turbulent flow creating ridges to be hit by an air flow and the tire surface, ranges from 70o to 110o; and, as a side-reinforcing rubber constituting said tire side part, a rubber composition prepared by blending 100 parts by 
mass of a rubber component containing 10 
mass% or more of a modified 
conjugated diene polymer, which is obtained by conducting a modification reaction between a terminus of a 
conjugated diene polymer and an alkoxysilane compound having a primary amino group or a precursor capable of forming a primary amino group through 
hydrolysis to thereby introduce the primary amino group or the precursor capable of forming a primary amino group through 
hydrolysis to said terminus, and further adding a fusion accelerator to the modification 
reaction system in the course of the modification reaction or after the completion thereof, with 10 to 100 parts by 
mass of 
carbon black having a 
nitrogen adsorption specific surface area of 20 to 90 m2 / g. Thus, it is possible to provide a durability-improvable tire, in which the temperature inside the tire side part can be lowered due to efficient heat 
radiation, and the durability during run-flat traveling and the 
rolling resistance during normal traveling, as the rubber composition, can be simultaneously improved.
