A pneumatic tire includes a tire case, a tread and a single-layer belt. The tire case includes a carcass that extends from one bead portion to another bead portion. An outer side portion of the carcass is covered with a side rubber layer formed of a first rubber material. The tread is disposed at the tire radial direction outer side of the tire case and is formed of a second rubber material. The belt is disposed between the tire case and the tread. The belt includes a resin-covered cord that is wound in a spiral shape. The resin-covered includes a cord covered with a resin with a greater tensile modulus of elasticity than the first rubber material and the second rubber material. The resin at one winding and another winding of the resin-covered cord, which are adjacent in the tire width direction, are welded together.
