This paper assimilates findings from a comprehensive research study examining tyre wear and its Indian perspective. Tyre wear understood as a factor affecting road safety, environmental health, and economic sustainability. The study identifies factors affecting tyre wear and provides overview regarding tyre wear generation in India, encompassing road infrastructure, vehicle characteristics, driving patterns, and environmental factors. Moreover, it examines the adverse effects of these particles on human health, such as respiratory ailments and cardiovascular diseases, as well as their impact on ecosystems. This paper delves measures to measure tyre wear and safeguard both environmental and public health. It also covers the tyre wear measurement methodologies to provide a comparison of methods used for estimating tyre wear. This paper is an attempt to summarize effects of tyre wear and its Indian perspective. Specific market serves specific requirements. Bringing forward India specific perspective of tyre usage patterns, it is common observation that Indian tyre consumption pattern is different than the developed countries like other developed countries. Varied environmental conditions, road conditions and usage patterns also affect tyre wear. This paper will encompass these aspects also.
