Goodyear's Poland affiliate to expand production

Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. said on Tuesday its TC Debica affiliate in Poland plans to invest more than $100 million over four years to expand production of more expensive and higher-profit car tires.

Goodyear, the largest U.S. tire maker, acquired an interest in TC Debica in 1995 and has invested almost $200 million in its operations since. Goodyear now holds a 60 percent ownership interest in the TC Debica.

The production expansion covers high performance and ultra-high performance car tires and would include the Debica, Goodyear, Dunlop and Fulda brand tires.
