About Double Star Tires

Double Star (Doublestar Co., Ltd.) is one of China's most storied tire manufacturers, with roots stretching back to 1921 in Qingdao, China. Originally founded as a footwear and apparel enterprise, the company made a decisive pivot toward tire manufacturing in 2008, and has since grown into one of the largest and most recognized tire brands in Asia and beyond. Today, Double Star exports its products to over 140 countries worldwide, making it a genuinely global force in the tire industry.

A Legacy of Innovation and Smart Manufacturing

What truly sets Double Star apart from competitors is its commitment to advanced manufacturing. In 2016, the company became the first tire manufacturer in the world to establish a complete “Industry 4.0” intelligent smart factory — a milestone that earned it the title of leader of Chinese tire intelligent manufacturing from China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. This recognition was awarded for five consecutive years across categories including technology innovation, quality benchmarking, green manufacturing, and smart supply chain management.

The brand's forward-thinking approach also extends to its materials science, where it has invested in green ecological rubber compounds and environmentally conscious production methods. Doublestar has integrated a comprehensive industrial ecosystem combining R&D, intelligent manufacturing, and service capabilities to deliver consistently reliable products at accessible price points.

A World-Class Portfolio

Double Star offers a comprehensive lineup of tires engineered for a wide range of applications. Drivers and fleet operators can find tires suited to passenger cars, light trucks, buses, and heavy-duty commercial vehicles. Notable models span from ultra-high-performance passenger tires designed for spirited driving to highway touring tires built for long-haul comfort and durability, as well as robust commercial truck tires engineered for demanding transport applications.

Each tire in the Double Star lineup is developed with specific tread patterns and rubber compound formulations aimed at delivering a practical balance of grip, fuel efficiency, ride comfort, and longevity — qualities that matter whether you're commuting daily or managing a commercial fleet.

Global Reach and Industry Recognition

Double Star's global ambitions took a major leap forward in 2018 when the company became the controlling shareholder of South Korean tire manufacturer Kumho Tire, which had previously ranked among the world's top ten tire enterprises. This strategic acquisition brought decades of Korean tire engineering expertise under the Double Star umbrella, further strengthening its research and development capabilities.

The brand has been consistently listed among Asia's 500 Most Influential Brands, and in 2025 ranked among China's 500 Most Valuable Brands with a brand value exceeding 116 billion yuan. For consumers seeking a tire that balances performance, durability, and value, Double Star represents a compelling choice backed by over a century of manufacturing heritage.
