What is the Black Star tyre?
BLACK STAR is a retread (=refurbished) tyre specialist with recognized know-how since 1979.
The tyres under the Black Star brand are produced in Saint-Pierre-de-Bœuf (40 minutes south of Lyon), in its historic factory.
A transversal and atypical offer is proposed, covering both passenger car tyres intended for the general public, but in particular tyres intended for the niche market more difficult to find in the traditional networks: namely short sizes because of scarcity, light truck tyres with atypical profiles like crampons, an offer dedicated to craftsmen to allow them to evolve serenely on their construction sites.
But also, an offer dedicated to all-terrain lovers through a very extensive off-road range with recognized performance in sand, snow and mud (mud&snow) !

Our BLACK STAR test bench
BLACK STAR is the first independent manufacturer approved by the UTAC (since 1999) and all its products have European R-108 and R-109 approvals.
With equivalent requirements and performances (return rate < 0.18%), BLACK STAR goes so far as to double the lifespan of a new tyre.
BLACK STAR has a load/speed endurance test bench approved by UTAC. It allows the regulatory tests required under European regulations 108 and 109 relating to retreaded Passenger, 4x4 and Utility tyres to be carried out.
The imposed endurance tests are strictly identical to those carried out on new tyres.
