Abstract The tire industry entered the era of industrial revolution (IR) 4.0. The process of tire production with electronic transactions produces big data that can be exploited in solving quality problems. Stratification techniques commonly used in big data conditions are less effective in mapping product quality conditions. Data handling and subjectivity in product quality classification are inhibitory factors in exploiting data. K means easy grouping of calculations and implementation can be used to map product quality. Radial runs out tire quality using K-mean clustering and elbow method validation shows that the optimum conditions for clustering the radial quality of exhaust tires are three groups. Each group is related to the construction of tires, i.e. radial outlets located at tread splices, sidewall splices and BEC splices. The priority to improve the quality of radial depletion can be suggested through quality mapping based on the results of K-mean cluster analysis, especially on BEC components. The results of the repairs show that the radial value of running out of tires decreased by 12.5%.
