However, such an alternative oil has a lower softening point than conventional highly aromatic oils, and when simply replaced, the temperature dependence of the viscoelasticity (G ', tan δ) of the rubber composition. Tend to shift to lower temperatures. for that reason,
The tan δ value at 0 ° C., which is an index of wet skid resistance, may decrease, which may cause a problem that the wet skid resistance of the tire decreases. There is also an attempt to mix and use paraffin-based straight asphalt with various process oils (JP-A-11-30245).
No. 9, etc.). However, the paraffinic straight asphalt greatly increases the Mooney viscosity of the rubber composition, and has low compatibility with natural rubber and diene synthetic rubber, and it has a low fracture resistance and an index of low rolling resistance of 60 ° C. It has been found that the tan δ value can be increased.

Examples 1 to 6, Comparative Examples 1 to 5 and Reference Example 1 Softeners, oil-extended synthetic rubbers and rubber test pieces used in the following Examples and Comparative Examples were prepared by the following method. (1) Method for preparing softening agent A predetermined amount of process oil shown in Table 1, which had been heated to 70 ° C. in advance, was precisely weighed. This oil was heated to 85 ° C. in advance to reduce the viscosity, and a predetermined amount of asphalt shown in Table 2 was mixed while keeping the temperature at 70 ° C., and then stirring was continued for 5 minutes to prepare the composition shown in Table 4. Various softeners were prepared. The amount of PCA component in the obtained softening agent is shown in Table 4 above.

(2) Preparation of oil-extended synthetic rubber 4 liters of cyclohexane was placed in a 5 liter beaker, and 500 g of emulsion-polymerized SBR0120 (trademark; manufactured by JSR Co., Ltd.) was added. Stir to dissolve. Next, the polymer solution was reprecipitated while being dropped into 2 liters of 2-propanol using a 5 liter beaker while stirring, and subsequently heated and vacuum dried to obtain a polymer from which oil-extended oil was removed. Obtained. The purified polymer thus obtained was sufficiently redissolved in 3 liters of cyclohexane using a 5 liter beaker.
A solution prepared by dissolving 0.5 g of -di-t-butyl-p-cresol in 5 ml of isopropanol was added, and the softening agent prepared above was further added, followed by drying by an ordinary method to obtain an oil-extended synthetic rubber.
