The world's biggest tire makers
The ranking of the world’s biggest tire manufacturers is dominated by European and Asian manufacturers. Third–ranked Goodyear Tire and Rubber Co. and twelfth–ranked Cooper Tire and Rubber Co. were the key tire makers with headquarters in the U.S. Since labor costs are the second biggest driver of tire production costs, Asian manufacturers are able to benefit from low wages in the majority of their plants.
