U.S. imports of Tires and Tire Parts (Except Retreadings) (NAICS 326211) totaled $1.6B in August 2026, imported from 73 countries.

Last updated: August 2026 dataNew tires and their component parts—including inner tubes, tread rubber, and bead assemblies—fall within this category, which is the dominant segment of the US tire trade by volume and value. Antidumping and countervailing duty orders targeting new passenger and light truck tires from China have reshaped sourcing patterns, pushing procurement toward Southeast Asian and other origins. Every tire imported for highway use must carry a DOT Tire Identification Number certifying FMVSS compliance, and importers bear responsibility for ensuring that certification is valid before goods clear customs.

For NAICS manufacturing purposes, inner tubes and other tire parts (except retreadings) are grouped within 326211 alongside new tires. For HTS import classification, however, inner tubes fall under a separate heading from finished tires, so the tariff treatment and any applicable trade-remedy exposure may differ.
Orders targeting Chinese-origin passenger and light truck tires have led many importers to diversify sourcing to countries such as Thailand, Vietnam, South Korea, and others. However, CBP and Commerce have scrutinized transshipment and circumvention, so importers must maintain robust documentation of manufacturing origin to defend against circumvention investigations.
