Answer :Tires were made that cost over $10,000 each. These tires were not made to go into space nor were they for huge construction machinery. Why were they made and why the excessive cost.
According to Bridgestone ( the company is getting out of the business of supplying tires to Formula 1 Racing ) it cost About $10,000 to manufacture a Formula 1 race tire. If you take into account the dedicated team of engineers with the resources and facilities they need as well as the facilities to test and manufacture the tires and then test it on a dedicated track. Dividing the number of tires by the total cost will put the price at about $10,000 a tire. Bridgestone must supply new tires for each race as well as for the team to practice on. They also have to supply tires for cold, moderate and hot conditions and tires that are good for rain, and greasy track in each of these conditions. So each race consumes 40 to 50 tires for each car. Each team has more than one car.
The company benefits by the advertising their name on the side of the tires during the race and there is a trickle down effect from the knowledge gained in producing these tires.
