Some Interesting Facts About Tyres

Tyres are naturally white
This point will amaze you, as it is one of the weirdest facts about tyres. Yes, tyres are originally white. They are made of rubber and other compounds and as rubbers are originally white, so are tyres. During the manufacturing process, carbon black was added to the rubber, which turns it black and also radically increased the tensile strength and durability of the tyres.
Manufacturing date of tyres
Did you know about the 4 digits that are imprinted on the sidewall of your tyres? It reflects the manufacturing date of the tyres. Let's suppose 2218 is written on the tyres, the first two digits represent the week of the year and the last two digits tell about the year when it was made. That is the tyre was manufactured in the 22nd week of 2018.
Largest manufacturer of tyre in the world

... the category of tyres as they are made from rubbers. Despite being miniature, it makes Lego the largest manufacturer of tyres in the world.
