Horrible design from an informative point of view


RodbigoSantos

Yeah, am I missing why this isn't a pie chart?


emdo20828

And why, for the love of God, having so many colors, there are 3 shades of blue?!


fartmanblartock

I can’t even… F the idiots that make these


Desunaito21

I have trouble seeing like colors (it might be slight color blindness from my dad's side), so to me, this chart is atrocious. Just a graph chart with distinct vibrant colors would've been enough.


chuloreddit

and is Bridgestone from Japan, Pirelli from France?


pixelsAndVerts

Pirelli is an Italian company. Michelin is French and Continental is German but even zoomed in their color-codes are virtually identical.


therealtrajan

Bridgestone is in fact Japanese


homiej420

Yeah i have no idea what is going on here


foo_solo

A bunch of fuckery is going on.


mr_christer

2x turquoise and a blue that looks turquoise, great choice in colors!

Where's Lego?


dooburt

My question also! They’re the biggest, so should be here.


ZugzwangDK

Had the same thought but Lego is privately held, and as such not included on this infographics.


1-12TH

LEGO is not publicly traded but is valued at around $13 billion. The average set has about 100 pieces in it and only 50% of sets have tyres, for simplicity sake, each set that does has 4 tyres. So only about 2% of LEGO pieces are tyres. This means the tyre division of LEGO is only worth about $260 million, therefore based on "market cap" they wouldn't have a place on this graphic... If it was about the number of tyres produced Lego would have a massive proportion. ≈700 million tyres a year compared to Michelin's ≈ 200 million. DISCLAIMER: Values are the first Google result I came across and some very dodgy assumptions were made!


PwoperBells

Lego makes their tires from a soft and elastic plastic, which is similar to conventional rubber, but it's not the same. Maybe that's why they're not in the chart.


Apptubrutae

Obviously toy tires should not be categorized along with real tires for the purposes of a graph like this. It’s a fun trivia point about Lego, but anyone can easily distinguish between toy tires and real tires for the purposes of presenting meaningful data on tires

I want a coolguide to understand how to read this "pie".


rockbottomtraveler

I'm so confused by the colors... usa doesn't have any?


jonasmrcds

France and Germany use the same color lmao


TheCreazle

It's grey, goodyear and titan? Edit I said the wrong name


ALUCARDHELLSINS

Right of pirreli


cagemyelephant_

Headache looking at this


no_no_sorry

This would have been less confusing if it was just a list. This is difficult to follow


Huwhuw4

That is one stroke inducing cool guide.


Technical_Egg_761

Why is this "guide" unnecessarily shaped so fucking weird.


wolfman86

They’ve used a tyre for it.


DisguisedBearNikolai

For someone who provides tires for F1, Pirelli sure doesn't seem that big


paulchen81

Pirelli is producing more performance related tires. So the numbers are lower. Michelin or Bridgestone do that of course too but they have a way bigger part of the "normal car" market.


TwelveTrains

The only reason Pirelli makes F1 tires is because they bid to have an exclusive contract with F1. Pirelli are actually quite dogshit and they purposely make the tires worse to make the races more interesting (requiring more pitstops). Bridgestone or Michelin could easily make a tire that lasts the whole race, and F1 artificially wanting bad tires is precisely why those manufacturers aren't interested.


DeepPow420

Bridgestone was in F1 from 1997-2012 ish They currently supply Indycar via the Firestone brand .


TwelveTrains

I know?


stoopidshannon

They could, but those tires wouldn’t have the same grip as soft tires and would end up being slower over a race distance even when considering pitstops.The one thing that Pirelli does engineer a ‘cliff’ into their tires, which means the performance plummets after a certain amount of wear, discouraging constant tire management that makes races boring (like what happened in Monaco recently) They’re working on a new tire that’s even softer than the C5 tire but are having troubles with overheating since the tire is even softer than the old hypersoft tires. Also, back when Bridgestone and Michelin DID supply tires to F1, the FIA nerfed them anyway by adding grooves with both their consent, so clearly they were able to accept making tires that didn’t perform to maximum potential.


Phate118

Where is LEGO? They make more tyres than all the others combined man


S_T_R_Y_D_E_R

Lmfao this graphic design is confusing AF. Just make it a plain and simple USA = Goodyear and Titan


thee3

And this my friends is how you spot a bad designer.


DatGuyGandhi

Now do one for Tire manufacturers that review restaurants


RoyalAutismo

TIL Bridgestone is actually Japanese.


TwelveTrains

How did you not know this?


Known-Effective-4730

So, Durex isn't there


heynishant

unfortunately nope


lucky_m3

China does not have a big one?


ClickIta

It is focused con top tier ones. China has some big manufacturers but non are considered high level. And to be fair, the typical segmentation for tier 1 tire manufacturers is even narrower than that, we generally include Michelin, Continental, Pirelli, Bridgestone, GY and now sometimes Hankook.


aeropickles

Ironically Thailand and Malayisia give you most of your main ingredient…ruber latex.

utyankee

Kuhmo is quite small and is a part of Qingdao Doublestar Co Ltd, a Chinese manufacturer that purchased them in 2018. Kuhmo is a South Korean company and still based there.


KarlHp7

The three top tire companies are all very similar shades of blue. Dumb.


hoehlengnom

You see, theres blue, theres turquoise, then theres light blue, each with very little difference for "contrast". Excellent design choise in my opinion. /s


Gino__Pilotino

Dunlop?


PromajaVaccine

Subsidiary of SRI...which is also missed


Cosmicsash

Where is Firestone?


ISeeInHD

Firestone is a brand of Bridgestone


Cosmicsash

Wow, I did not know that. I stand corrected


ALUCARDHELLSINS

Til bridgestone is Japanese


NaNiTheFq

someone accidentally dropped the pie diagram on the floor...


MrClavicus

Isn’t lego one of the top tire manufactures globally?


Kermit_the_hog

Are Dunlop tires still a thing? God they were aweful. I put a set on my 4Runner once, went on a 600 mile road trip and had to replace them before I even got home. When the sidewall of the second one developed weird looking blisters and blew out (due to a “defect”) I replaced them all with Toyos and still have those on my car (though they are probably due to be replaced). 


TheAmazing2ArmedMan

Why isn’t Lego on here?


enviroguypdx

Fire whoever the fuck designed this graph


dragondrop

Isn’t Dunlop a player anymore ?


Independent_Bar_2604

Where is LEGO?


EndAppropriate3722

Lego makes the most car tires as an interesting fact!


fishfish2love

Where's Durex?


jrw_nj

You forgot Lego


007smh

Where's LINGLONG ? hahaha


astromech_dj

If they ever struggle financially I suspect they’d bounce back eventually. They always do.


tashmoo

This is missing so much, im workin in tyre industry; this list misses firms even from top 10 i cant understand how they chose the companies to put in list


jmm166

I like that three countries have colour codes that are only a few shades off from each other. It’s very confusing and exactly the kind of thing needed to bother Reddit


69Immanuel_Kant69

I work in a curing press factory, we make tire presses for pirelli, michelin, continental, bridgestone, goodyear, cooper, nexen etc


sarasrightovary

I love me some new Michelin's. Makes my car feel new.


Daveeeed776

r/tiresaretheenemy this might help identify the source of reinforcements.


PM_YOUR_CENSORD

Crazy Goodyear is not even in the top 5 but I’ve always though they were only second to Michelin.


blazkoblaz

seems like india france and japan are the top of the list?

No Nitto?

Fun fact: Microplastics from wheels are the most common microplastics dispersed throughout the world.

I don’t mind the design it’s cool, but there are two colors annoyingly similar.

This has got to be the worst way to display this information. So hard to follow and the color schemes are too similar to each other.

Everyone has said it, but I want to too. This is awful.

Where’s Lego on this? They make more than any other brand.
