Michelin, Bridgestone and Goodyear are the three tire giants.

1, Michelin (France) ranks first in the world.

2. Bridgestone (Japan), ranked second in the world.

3. Goodyear, ranked third in the world.

Extended data:

1, the world's number one Michelin (France), invested $200 1 200 million, and acquired 70% equity of Shanghai Tire and Rubber Company, the largest in China at that time. At the same time, a joint venture factory will be built in Shenyang to mainly produce all-steel radial truck tires. Michelin continues to be optimistic about the high growth of China tire market, and will invest tens of millions of dollars in the next 3-4 years, mainly to expand the production capacity of Shanghai passenger car tires, which will become one of Michelin's largest tire factories after the expansion. At the same time, Michelin also plans to set up a tire factory in the south of China to complete the layout from north to south in China.

2. Bridgestone (Japan), ranked second in the world, has three tire factories in China. Bridgestone (Shenyang) Tire Co., Ltd. opened on 1999, with a daily output of 3,000 radial truck tires. It is estimated that the sales will reach 2.5 billion yuan by 2004. Bridgestone (Tianjin) Tire Co., Ltd. opened in 2000, and can produce 654.38+0.4 million passenger car radial tires every day.

3. Goodyear, ranked third in the world, established a tire joint venture in Dalian as early as 1994, with an annual output of 1900000. Now Goodyear is implementing an expansion plan. It is planned to invest/kloc-0.2 billion USD, add 7 production lines and expand the scale of Dalian joint venture tire factory. It is expected that the number of Dalian factories will increase to 5.3 million in the next five years.

4. Judge the advantages and disadvantages of tires

First of all, give priority to the original tires, which can best match the speed and maximum load of the car. Therefore, in theory, tire replacement should be given priority.

Second, pay attention to the tire pattern. The patterns on automobile tires not only have aesthetic effect, but also have great influence on tire performance. Cars that often drive in Shenzhen should choose those patterned tires with good drainage, such as regular small patterns; For cars that need cross-country and long-distance running, you can choose large patterns.

Finally, if you are not satisfied with the original handling of the vehicle, you can consider replacing the tires with lower flattening rate. For many models, one of the most effective ways to improve the appearance and handling performance of vehicles is to replace the tires with low flattening rate. Each type of tire has its specific function, so when choosing a tire, you should ask what type of tire is suitable for what kind of driving habits, so that the car is safer when driving and the money spent on tires is more worthwhile.

When choosing tires, we should also be careful not to mix different types of tires, such as putting tires suitable for off-road vehicles together with ordinary cars, or mixing tires for directional sports cars with ordinary tires.
