The present invention provides a tire having a tire tread comprising a cap tread and a base tread, use of which makes it possible to prepare for future decrease of petroleum supply, and further, can improve rolling resistance, steering stability and rubber strength in favorable balance, as compared with a tire prepared by using a rubber composition for a tread or a tire prepared by using a rubber composition for a base tread, which mainly comprises materials derived from petroleum resources. The tire has a tire tread comprising a cap tread and a base tread, the base tread being prepared by using a rubber composition for a base tread comprising 25 to 80 parts by weight of silica on the basis of 100 parts by weight of a rubber component comprising a natural rubber, and a thickness of the base tread being 17 to 50 % of the overall thickness of the tire tread. |
