Tire aftermarket and replacement are dedicated replacement tires intended to provide all-around performance on any vehicle for which they are sized.

Tire labeling norms have become mandatory in recent times. For instance, each tire in the United States has a Department of Transportation (DOT) number that serves as its unique identification. The final four numbers represent the week and year the tires were manufactured. Additionally, the Indian government proposed mandating tire standards in 2021 to improve fuel efficiency and braking performance on wet roads. Thus, the tire labeling guidelines are anticipated to support the development of the tire aftermarket, tire replacement market.

However, uncertainty in the pricing of automotive raw materials negatively impacts the global market’s progression.

Globally, the Asia-Pacific is expected to emerge as the fastest-growing region in the tire aftermarket, tire replacement market. Countries in the region have a strong manufacturing base, skilled labor, and special economic zones. Massive demand for automobiles and automotive components in countries such as India, China, Thailand, Indonesia, and Japan drives the market. Besides, electric vehicle adoption is increasing in China and other major emerging economies, increasing the tire replacement demand.
