- If I need new tires, start looking for them fairly soon, says Joakim Bohman, owner of a tire company in Norrköping.
Already in March, Joakim Bohman's company started to take home studded tires.
After the war in Ukraine started, many in the tire industry realized that there could be problems.
On the one hand, many manufacturers have factories in Russia, and on the other hand, a lot of studded tires are manufactured in Russia.
Mainly it concerns a concern for studded tires, but even unstudded tires can become a shortage.
A product used in tire manufacturing, carbon black, is also produced in Russia.
