Various secondary sources, directories, and databases have been used to identify and collect information for an extensive OTR tires market study. The study involved four main activities in estimating the current size of the OTR tires market: secondary research, validation through primary research, assumptions, and market analysis. Exhaustive secondary research was carried out to collect information on the market, such as different rim sizes, OTR tire types, and upcoming technologies and trends. The next step was to validate these findings, assumptions, and market analysis with industry experts across the value chain through primary research. The top-down approach was employed to estimate the complete market size for different segments considered in this study.
Secondary Research
In the secondary research process, various secondary sources have been used to identify and collect information useful for an extensive commercial study of the OTR tires market. Secondary sources include company annual reports/presentations, press releases, industry association publications [such as publications on Committee for European Electric Off-highway Vehicle (CECE), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Agriculture Equipment Manufacturers Union (AXEMA), Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM), Italian Agricultural Machinery Manufacturers Federation (FEDERUNACOMA), Japan Agricultural Machinery Manufacturers Association (JAMMA), China Agricultural Machinery Distribution Association (CAMDA), VDMA (Verband Deutscher Maschinen- und Anlagenbau), Russian Association of Specialized Machinery and Equipment Manufacturers (ROSSPETSMASH), Brazilian Association of Industrial Machinery and Equipment (ABIMAQ), Agricultural Engineers Association (AEA). The OTR tires related magazine articles, directories, technical handbooks, World Economic Outlook, trade websites, and technical articles. Additionally, secondary research and model mapping have been carried out to understand the average cost of OTR tires, which come with different OTR tire rim sizes, and the historical sales of OTR tires.
Primary Research
In the primary research process, various primary sources from both the supply and demand sides were interviewed to obtain qualitative and quantitative information on the market. The primary sources from the supply side included industry experts such as CXOs, vice presidents, directors from business development, marketing, product development/innovation teams, and related key executives from various key companies. Various system integrators, industry associations, independent consultants/industry veterans, and key opinion leaders were also interviewed.

Market Size Estimation
Data Triangulation
After arriving at the overall market size of the global market through the methodology mentioned above, this market was split into several segments and subsegments. The data triangulation and market breakdown procedures were employed, wherever applicable, to complete the overall market engineering process and arrive at the exact data for the market by value for the key segments and subsegments. The extrapolated market dsata was triangulated by studying various macro indicators and regional trends from both the demand- and supply-side participants.
Market Definition
Off-the-road (OTR) Tires: Tires used for OTR equipment are known as OTR tires. These tires vary from automotive tires in size and durability. Tires used in off-highway equipment have a tread design with interlocked tread elements. This design offers the benefit of traction in various conditions, such as paved and gravel surfaces, mud, dirt, snow, and others. The OTR tires market study considers tires used in construction and mining equipment, agricultural tractors, and industrial equipment. The lifespan of off-highway tires is higher than that of automotive tires, and hence, these tires are more expensive. Retreading is carried out to recycle and reuse the tires for their optimum life span.
Retreading vs. Aftermarket:
-
Retreading is defined as recycling the original tire casing and applying new treads to increase the service life of a tire. Retreading helps protect the environment by reducing oil consumption. The cost of retreading is less than the cost of a new tire. Hence, all commercial fleets and off-highway vehicles prefer retreading over replacement with new tires.
-
The aftermarket or replacement market supplies new tires, which replace the original tire of a vehicle. The aftermarket is divided into Original Equipment Supplier (OES) and Independent Aftermarket (IAM). The cost of replacement tires is higher than retread tires.
