The invention relates to vehicle tires for utility vehicles, comprising a belt (9) and a tread profile that extends in the axial direction A of the vehicle tire between two tire shoulders, in each of which a profiled shoulder strip (19) is formed that extends over the circumference of the vehicle tire. The profiled shoulder strip is delimited in the axial direction A towards the equatorial plane Ä of the tire by a groove (20), which extends over the circumference of the vehicle tire, and on the profiled strip face facing away from the equatorial plane Ä by a respective surface of the tire lateral wall (2), which forms the profiled shoulder strip (19) flank facing away from the equatorial plane Ä. The tread profile is delimited by a surface which forms the road contact surface on the sectional planes containing the tire axis, said surface forming a surface contour line K which is curved towards the tire between the profiled shoulder strips (19). In at least one profiled shoulder strip (19), the surface which forms the road contact surface is formed as the extension of the curved surface contour line K into the profiled shoulder strip (19) in an axial first extension section (21) of the width a, said extension section adjoining the circumferential groove (20), and the radial position of the surface which forms the road contact surface constantly decreases outwards along the axial extension in a second extension section (22) of the width c, said extension section adjoining the first extension section (21) and extending to the surface of the tire lateral wall. The surface which forms the road contact surface is formed by a first sub-portion (23), which extends to a point P, and a second sub-portion (24), which extends from the point P to the surface of the tire lateral wall (2), in the second extension section (22) such that the surface which forms the road contact surface has a concave contour progression in the first sub-portion (23) and a convex contour progression in the second sub-portion (24) with a turning point of the contour progression in the point P, said point P being arranged outside of the belt (9) in the axial direction A.
