What are the Three Giants of the World Tire Industry?
1 Answers
Michelin, Bridgestone, and Goodyear are the three giants of the world tire industry. The performance and structure of tires are as follows: Tire Performance: Tires are one of the essential components of a vehicle, directly contacting the road surface to ensure good ride comfort and smooth driving. They also maintain excellent adhesion between the wheels and the road, thereby improving the vehicle's traction, braking, and off-road capability. Tire Structure: Tires generally consist of three parts: the outer tire, inner tube, and flap. The inner layer of the tire has an airtight rubber layer, gradually promoting the trend toward lightweight tires. The outer tire is mainly composed of the carcass, tread, sidewall, and bead, with the carcass and bead forming the force-bearing structure of the vehicle's pneumatic tire.
