Saudi Arabia OTR Tire Market to Grow with a CAGR of 5.8% through 2030

The Saudi Arabia OTR tire market is driven by mega infrastructure projects, mining expansion, industrial diversification, and rising equipment mechanization, boosting demand for durable, high-performance OEM and replacement tires.

According to TechSci Research report, “Saudi Arabia OTR Tire Market – By Region, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F”, Saudi Arabia OTR Tire Market was valued at USD 347.32 Million in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 488.23 Million by 2030 with a CAGR of 5.8% during the forecast period. The Saudi Arabia Off-the-Road (OTR) tire market is undergoing a transformative phase, shaped by the Kingdom’s broader push for modernization and industrial growth. Beyond the widely cited infrastructure and mining initiatives, the market is also gaining momentum due to the modernization of fleet operations across sectors such as waste management, logistics, and energy services. The growing emphasis on equipment productivity and uptime is prompting fleet operators to invest in high-quality OTR tires with longer lifespans, reduced downtime, and better traction efficiency. The adoption of fleet digitization tools, such as tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) and predictive maintenance platforms, is also fostering demand for technologically compatible tire products. In addition, the growth of public-private partnerships in utility and transport infrastructure is enabling mid-sized contractors and service providers to upgrade their equipment base, thereby widening the end-user segment for OTR tire manufacturers.

However, despite these opportunities, the market continues to face challenges that can constrain its growth trajectory. One persistent issue is the lack of localized manufacturing of OTR tires, which leads to high import dependence, increased lead times, and vulnerability to global supply chain disruptions. Tariff structures, port congestion, and currency fluctuations also contribute to cost volatility, affecting procurement budgets and pricing consistency for buyers. Another key challenge is the skills gap in tire maintenance and handling practices, especially in remote mining and agricultural regions. Improper usage, underinflation, and overload often lead to premature tire failures, thereby raising operational costs and affecting end-user confidence in product quality. Additionally, extreme climatic conditions in desert zones—characterized by high temperatures and abrasive surfaces—pose a constant stress test for tire performance, pushing manufacturers to continuously innovate in tread design, compound resilience, and heat resistance. Addressing these challenges while aligning with Saudi Arabia’s economic diversification will be crucial for sustaining long-term market growth.

The Saudi Arabia OTR Tire market is segmented into application type, demand category, tire construction type and region.

Based on application mining segment is emerging as the fastest-growing application segment. This growth is primarily attributed to the government's strategic focus on diversifying the economy away from oil by developing its mineral wealth. As part of this vision, the Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources is aggressively pushing investment into gold, phosphate, bauxite, and rare earth mining. The increase in surface and underground mining activity translates into higher demand for large-diameter OTR tires suitable for haul trucks, wheel loaders, and articulated dump trucks. Unlike other segments, mining applications are more tire-intensive due to extreme terrain, continuous usage, and high operational risk, which necessitate frequent replacements and high-performance tire variants.

Based on the demand category, the replacement segment currently dominates the market, accounting for the majority of OTR tire sales. This is due to several factors, including the harsh operating environment in Saudi Arabia, which accelerates tire wear, and the prevalence of aging fleets that require frequent tire replacement. In mining, agriculture, and heavy construction operations, continuous use over rough terrain leads to increased tire turnover. Moreover, frequent equipment overloading, poor road infrastructure in remote areas, and limited access to preventive maintenance further contribute to tire degradation, fueling the replacement market. The presence of a robust aftermarket ecosystem with multiple tire retailers, service centers, and retreaders supports this segment’s growth. Fleet operators and small contractors often prefer purchasing replacement tires based on immediate need and cost-effectiveness, rather than sticking with OEM brands.

Based on region, the Western Region, encompassing major cities like Jeddah, Mecca, and Medina, is a vital economic corridor with significant activity in construction, logistics, and port operations. Jeddah, in particular, hosts one of the busiest seaports in the Red Sea and acts as a gateway for OTR tire imports and distribution. Material handling equipment such as forklifts, cranes, and container handlers at ports and warehouses contribute to the growing need for OTR tires. Additionally, the tourism-centric developments around Mecca and Medina require continuous infrastructure upgrades, driving demand for construction machinery and tires. While not as dominant as the Central Region in overall size, the Western Region maintains a strong and stable presence in the market, especially in replacement tire demand for material handling and medium-duty construction equipment.

“In recent years, environmental awareness and regulatory shifts are gradually reshaping the Saudi Arabia OTR tire market, leading to a growing focus on sustainability and greener product choices. Although not as mature as in Western markets, there is a noticeable uptick in demand for tires that offer low rolling resistance, improved fuel efficiency, and environmentally conscious production processes. Government policies under Saudi Arabia’s broader ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) goals—aligned with Vision 2030—are promoting cleaner industrial practices and resource optimization, encouraging manufacturers to invest in eco-friendly materials, lower-emission production technologies, and circular economy models. One such model gaining interest is tire retreading, which extends tire life and reduces waste. While retreading has faced skepticism in the past due to concerns about durability, newer technologies have made the process safer and more reliable, prompting a gradual revival in demand among large fleet owners looking to reduce both costs and environmental impact”, said Mr. Karan Chechi, Research Director of TechSci Research, a research-based management consulting firm.
