Will tire prices drop in conjunction with gas?

Am I correct in saying crude oil is a major ingredient along with natural rubber in producing tires? I can't expect tires prices to drop overnight but assuming oil stays where it is, what's the expert opinion on tire prices over the next 6 months?

Did tire prices go up? I didn't notice any real change so no.

If they didn't go up, there is no "down" to go to.

Recent increases:

Older increases back in 2005 when oil was rising quickly:

Tire Prices....Up or Down?

It's possible tire prices might decrease but only after ALL the tires manufactured when crude prices were high are sold. As long as there
are cars tires will be in demand but keep in mind there's nothing more
important than good tires and brakes....you life depends on them!
