This new video shows the many steps in making a car tire from scratch:

The skeleton bead hoops & inner tube & corded ply are assembled he

That completes the inner part, or skeleton, of the ti

Separately, strips of rubber embedded with steel cord on a drum:

Rubber ply strips are added to those first layers of rubber:

The tread rubber is applied to the strips of rubber made above:

Then the separate skeleton & tread sections are assembled into one:

The result is a "green tire", uncured and without a tread pattern:

Now it's molded, baked, and shaped into a vulcanized branded ti

The tire is tested for uniformity (red & yellow dots are placed):

Here is a relatively recent Michelin Shill from October 2019:
o HOW A MICHELIN MOTORSPORT TYRE IS MADE. Inside the factory.

It has a good narrated sequence of the steps needed to make the tires.

This animated video is from the US Tire Manufacturers Association:
o How Tires Are Made, by the U.S. Tire Manufacturers Association

It's more flow-chart'ish diagramatically sequenced.

This is a Continental Tires video on how they make tires:

An older, less detailed video is this from Michelin Tires:
o How it's made: Michelin Tires, my Malik H, October 31, 2016

Although it's more marketing and a bit less how tires are made;
but they go into testing of the tires in more detail than do the others.

Here's another (even older) Michelin video on how tires are made:

Any other good videos on how automotive tires are made?

Thanks for taking the time to index that fine tire doc! Your patience and grasp
