If we take last year’s statistics, then these stocks may be enough for a period of 11 to 17 months, representatives of the national labeling system “Honest Sign” believe. According to Nokian Tires and Michelin, about 40 million tires were purchased last year. At the same time, specifically for passenger cars, sales of tires amounted to about 30 million units, that is, such cars can be provided within two years, subject to continued demand and if warehouses are not replenished.

At the same time, tires continue to be produced in Russia, in particular, factories of local manufacturers Kama Tires, Cordiant and Nortec, as well as Nokian Tires and Pirelli localized in Russia, operate.

Earlier, Bridgestone, Continental, Michelin and Yokohama announced the suspension of production and supplies to Russia.
