Pneumatic tire
A pneumatic tire includes at least one sound absorbing member having a band-like shape. The sound absorbing member is bonded to an inner surface of a tread portion along a tire circumferential direction. A correction body for correcting weight unbalance is fixed to a tire inner surface in a range corresponding to a light point of an entire tire including the sound absorbing member.

a correction body for correcting weight unbalance being fixed to the tire inner surface of the tread portion in a range corresponding to a light point of an entire tire comprising the sound absorbing member; wherein
the light point is a position where a weight of the pneumatic tire is lightest on a circumference of an entirety of the pneumatic tire including the at least one sound absorbing member,
a range corresponding to the light point in the entirety of the pneumatic tire is a region within ±60° with respect to the light point around the center axis of a main body of the pneumatic tire, and
a separation distance in a tire width direction between the correction body and a closest sound absorbing member of any sound absorbing member bonded to the pneumatic tire, including the at least one sound absorbing member, is not less than 5 mm.
2 . The pneumatic tire according to claim 1 , wherein the two sound absorbing members are provided, and the sound absorbing members are disposed to be separated from one another in a tire width direction.
3 . The pneumatic tire according to claim 2 , wherein the correction body is disposed between the sound absorbing members in the tire width direction.
4 . The pneumatic tire according to claim 2 , wherein a first sound absorbing member constituting the sound absorbing member is disposed on one side in a tire width direction from a position 40% of a width of a land portion from an end portion on the one side in the tire width direction to another side in the tire width direction of the land portion on a tire equator line, a second sound absorbing member constituting the sound absorbing member is disposed on the other side in the tire width direction from the position 40% of the width of the land portion from an end portion on the other side in the tire width direction to the one side in the tire width direction of the land portion, and the first sound absorbing member and the second sound absorbing member constituting the sound absorbing member are separated by 60% or greater of the width of the land portion.
5 . The pneumatic tire according to claim 1 , wherein the correction body is disposed closer to an inner side in a tire width direction than a ground contact edge.
6 . The pneumatic tire according to claim 1 , wherein an amount of silicon in a release agent detected in at least a fixed region of the correction body by a fluorescence X-ray analysis method is not greater than 10.0 wt. %.
7 . The pneumatic tire according to claim 1 , wherein a thickness of a release agent detected in at least a fixed region of the correction body by an electron microscope is not greater than 100 μm.
8 . The pneumatic tire according to claim 1 , wherein the correction body is fixed to the tire inner surface via an adhesive layer, and an adhesive strength of the adhesive layer is in a range of from 0.4 N/mm 2 to 100 N/mm 2 .
9 . The pneumatic tire according to claim 8 , wherein the adhesive layer is made of a cyanoacrylate-based adhesive.
10 . The pneumatic tire according to claim 1 , wherein the correction body is directly adhered to the tire inner surface.
11 . The pneumatic tire according to claim 1 , wherein a base is inserted between the correction body and the tire inner surface.
12 . The pneumatic tire according to claim 1 , wherein as a tire inner surface roughness in a fixed region of the correction body, an arithmetic mean height Sa is in a range of from 0.3 μm to 15.0 μm, and a maximum height Sz is in a range of from 2.5 μm to 60.0 μm.
13 . The pneumatic tire according to claim 1 , wherein the correction body is a sensor unit.
14 . A pneumatic tire, comprising:
at least one sound absorbing member having a band-like shape, the sound absorbing member being bonded to a tire inner surface of a tread portion along a tire circumferential direction; and
a correction body for correcting weight unbalance being fixed to the tire inner surface of the tread portion in a range corresponding to a light point of an entire tire comprising the sound absorbing member; wherein
the at least one sound absorbing member is continuous in the tire circumferential direction, and
the correction body is disposed only axially outward of an axially outermost edge of the sound absorbing member.
15 . A pneumatic tire, comprising:
at least one sound absorbing member having a band-like shape, the sound absorbing member being bonded to a tire inner surface of a tread portion along a tire circumferential direction; and
a correction body for correcting weight unbalance being fixed to the tire inner surface of the tread portion in a range corresponding to a light point of an entire tire comprising the sound absorbing member; wherein
the correction body is fixed at a position circumferentially offset from any gap of any sound absorbing member bonded to the pneumatic tire, including the at least one sound absorbing member, and
