Tire Recapper Plant Codes

DOT: United States Department of Transportation of which
NHTSA: National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration is part.

Here are the latest tire codes, from the NHTSA Manufacturer Database which was last updated on 22OCT09.  Because of the length of the list, now including 893 tire manufacturers, the list has been divided into eight (8) segments of approximately 111 codes per page.  Please note, the numeral zero 0 as compared to the letter O.  When I made these lists I sorted them from 0-99 and then A to Z, starting with code zero one (01) and following through to Code YY, as referenced in the links above.

While I have made an effort to be accurate, I make NO WARRANTY as to the completeness or accuracy of these lists.
Visitors may also visit the NHTSA Data Base Look-up feature at http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/rules/manufacture/index.html.  At this link
visitors may also look up various autoparts and Retread Tire Plants (over 5000!) by code number.

Notice: I will not look up Tire Company addresses because people keep asking me to look up tire companies for entire countries or regions.  Please join one of the paid associations for this service.

About Tire Recapper Plant Codes:  There are over 5,000 Tire Recap Plant Codes.  This would make for a whole lot of pages to go through. So, to keep things simple, I have put the entire file online as an Excel 97 Spreadsheet.  Depending on your browser this will either open in Microsoft Office Excel, or in your web browser.  If desired, it can also be saved to your computer where you can examine it at your leisure.

Previously there were  664 plants listed. As of 28OCT09 there are  893 plants listed in these tables.

The information here is from a U.S. D.O.T. Microsoft Access database: "MANUFACTURER mdb".
The data therein is used to make these tables. The above link will take you to the DOT FTP site where this database and other publicly accessible files may be found.
You will need at least Microsoft Access 2007, Office Excel 2007 to open this database after download.
If you would like to obtain the address for a tire/tyre company corporate office, Google the particular tire manufacturer.
If you have a general question I will try to answer it - just email me here
