Tire Manufacturing in the US Industry Data and Analysis

Connor Zaminski
Analyst New York, United States December 2025

The industry has faced numerous challenges, including supply chain disruptions, rising imports and trade wars. In 2019, the Department of Commerce (DOC) introduced substantial tariffs on truck, bus and radial (TBR) tires imported from China, ranging from 23.9% to 66.3% for anti-subsidy tariffs and a 22.6% standard tariff. The sector experienced increased support due to these measures, which incentivized domestic manufacturing by making imports more costly. Southeast Asia, the predominant supplier of natural rubber, saw its production affected by weather phenomena like El Niño, which drove up rubber prices because of depressed rubber output. The period also witnessed a shift in consumer behavior towards more affordable tire options, driven by a cooling labor market and heightened borrowing costs experienced throughout mid-2025. However, as economic uncertainty eased and the rate dropped on October 29, 2025, the tire manufacturing industry experienced a surge in demand. Currently, revenue is expected to grow at a five-year CAGR of 5.2%, reaching $26.8 billion by the end of 2025, with an expansion of 0.9% in 2025 alone.
