A method for pneumatic tire simulation comprises the steps of modeling a tire body having a cavity extending in a circumferential direction of the tire using finite elements to build a tire body model, modeling the cavity surrounded by the tire body using finite volumes to build a cavity model, setting a pneumatic tire model coupled the tire body model with the cavity model so that a relative distance between an outer surface of the cavity model and an inner surface of the tire body model does not change, modeling a road using finite elements to build a road model, and executing a numerical simulation in which the tire model is made to roll on the road model in a predetermined condition.
