Pneumatic Tire
Provided is a pneumatic tire. At least one sensor unit including a sensor that acquires tire information is fixed to an innerliner constituting a tire inner surface, and the sensor unit is bonded to the tire inner surface via an adhesive layer in a state where a release agent present in the tire inner surface is removed by cutting at least in a fixing region for the sensor unit.
