Tubeless tyres also facilitate the manoeuvring of cars at high speed and their low pressure and minimal rolling resistance enhance the safety and comfortability of riders.

Market Share by End Use

The OEM sector accounts for a significant portion of the India passenger car tyre market share as they are specifically designed by the manufacturer of a car and boast excellent performance. Moreover, OEM tyres come with extended warranty periods and help end-users to achieve consistent driving experience.
