A rubber composition and a tire made therefrom in which rolling resistance can be reduced without lowering wet grip performance, wherein the rubber composition contains a rubber component and 15 to 150 parts by weight of silica having a nitrogen adsorbing-specific surface area of 20 to 500 m.sup.2/g, on the basis of 100 parts by weight of the rubber component, and wherein the rubber component includes not less than 15% by weight of a styrene-butadiene rubber (1) containing a styrene amount of not less than 33% by weight and a vinyl amount of not less than 30% by weight, and not less than 10% by weight of a styrene-butadiene rubber (2) containing a styrene amount of not more than 15% by weight and a vinyl amount of not more than 60% by weight, wherein a total amount of the styrene-butadiene rubber (1) and the styrene-butadiene rubber (2) is not less than 60% by weight.
