DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	12 Months Ended

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Business Titan International, Inc. and its subsidiaries (Titan or the Company) are leading manufacturers of wheels, tires, and undercarriage systems and components for off-highway vehicles used in the agricultural, earthmoving/construction, and consumer segments. Titan manufactures both wheels and tires for the majority of these market applications, allowing the Company to provide the value-added service of delivering complete wheel and tire assemblies. The Company offers a broad range of products that are manufactured to meet the specifications of original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and/or the requirements of aftermarket customers. Principles of consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all majority-owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities in which Titan is the primary beneficiary. Investments in companies in which Titan does not own a majority interest, but which Titan has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies are accounted for using the equity method. Investments in other companies are carried at cost. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. COVID-19 pandemic The COVID-19 pandemic continued to have an impact on the Company in 2021. The Company’s operations continued with additional sanitary and other protective health measures which have increased operating costs. While the Company's operations began to return to historical levels beginning in the second half of 2020 and continuing throughout 2021, certain geographies (particularly Australia, Europe and Latin America) continue to remain impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic due to new and emerging variants of COVID-19 resulting in higher employee absenteeism. Further, global supply chains are experiencing constraints as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, including availability and pricing of raw materials, transportation and labor. The current constraints on the global supply chains are adding complexity to growth expectations in the near term. We expect that the Company's operations will continue to be impacted by the pandemic, though the nature and extent of the impact will depend on the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, the length of time it takes for more normal economic and operating conditions to resume, additional governmental actions that may be taken and/or extensions of time for restrictions that have been imposed to date and other uncertainties. Cash and cash equivalents The Company considers short-term debt securities with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The cash in the Company's U.S. banks is not fully insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Company had $86.4 million and $100.4 million of cash in foreign bank accounts at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company's cash in its foreign bank accounts is not fully insured. Accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts The Company carries its accounts receivable at their face amounts less an allowance for doubtful accounts. An allowance for uncollectible receivables is recorded based upon the best estimate of credit losses in accounts receivable. In order to monitor credit risks associated with our customer base, credit worthiness of our existing customer base is reviewed on a periodic basis. At the end of each reporting period, the allowance for doubtful accounts is reviewed relative to management's collectibility assessment and adjusted if deemed necessary. The factors considered in this review include known bad debt risks and past loss history. Actual collection experience may differ from the current estimate of net receivables. Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company’s inventories are valued under the first in, first out (FIFO) method or average cost method. Net realizable value is estimated based on current selling prices. Estimated provisions are established for slow-moving and obsolete inventory. Fixed assets Property, plant, and equipment have been recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives of the related assets: Years Building and improvements 25 - 40 Machinery and equipment 7 - 20 Tools, dies, and molds 2 - 9 Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. When property, plant, and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are eliminated, and any gain or loss on disposition is included in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. Interest is capitalized on fixed asset projects which are constructed over a period of time. The amount of interest capitalized is determined by applying a weighted average interest rate to the average amount of accumulated expenditures for the asset during the period. The interest rate used is based on the rates applicable to borrowings outstanding during the period. No interest was capitalized in 2021, 2020 or 2019. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The Company reviews fixed assets to assess recoverability from future operations whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not be recoverable. Factors that could result in an impairment review include, but are not limited to, a current period cash flow loss combined with a history of cash flow losses, current cash flows that may be insufficient to recover the investment in the property over the remaining useful life, or a projection that demonstrates continuing losses associated with the use of a long-lived asset, significant changes in the manner of use of the assets, or significant changes in business strategies. Impairment losses are recognized in operating results when expected undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset. Impairment losses are measured as the excess of the carrying value of the asset over the discounted expected future cash flows or the estimated fair value of the asset. Fair value of financial instruments The Company records all financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, accounts payable, and notes payable at cost, which approximates fair value due to their short term or stated rates. Investments in marketable equity securities are recorded at fair value. Our 7.00% senior secured notes due 2028 (the senior secured notes due 2028) were carried at cost of $394.5 million at December 31, 2021. The fair value of the senior secured notes due 2028 at December 31, 2021, as obtained through an independent pricing source, was approximately $424.9 million. Investments The Company sold its remaining equity method investment in Wheels India Limited (Wheels India) during 2020 resulting in net proceeds of $32.9 million and net loss of $0.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. This equity method investment was included in other long-term assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company assesses the carrying value of its equity method investments whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not be recoverable. Investment write-downs, if necessary, are recognized in operating results when expected undiscounted future cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset. These write-downs, if any, are measured as the excess of the carrying value of the asset over the discounted expected future cash flows or the estimated fair value of the asset. The Company uses the cost method to account for investments in entities that are not consolidated or accounted for under the equity method. Under the cost method, investments are reported at cost in other long-term assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair values of cost method investments are not estimated if there are no identified events or changes in circumstances that may have a significant adverse effect on the fair values of the investments. Foreign currency translation The financial statements of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are translated to United States dollars. Assets and liabilities are translated to United States dollars at period-end exchange rates. Income and expense items are translated at average rates of exchange prevailing during the period. Translation adjustments are included in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” in stockholders’ equity. Gains and losses that result from foreign currency transactions are included in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. Revenue recognition The Company records sales revenue when products are shipped to customers and when our performance obligations with our customer are satisfied. Our obligations under the contracts are satisfied when we transfer control of our products to our customer which is generally upon shipment. Provisions are established for sales returns and uncollectible accounts based on historical experience. Should trends change, adjustments would be necessary to the estimated provisions. Cost of sales Cost of sales is comprised primarily of direct materials and supplies consumed in the manufacturing of the Company’s products, as well as manufacturing labor, depreciation expense, and overhead expense necessary to acquire and convert the purchased materials and supplies into a finished product. Cost of sales also includes all purchasing, receiving, inspection, internal transfers, and related distribution costs. Selling, general, and administrative expense Selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expense is comprised primarily of sales commissions, marketing expense, selling, and administrative wages, information system costs, legal fees, bank charges, professional fees, depreciation and amortization expense on non-manufacturing assets, and other administrative items. Research and development expense Research and development (R&D) expenses are expensed as incurred. R&D costs were $10.1 million, $9.0 million, and $9.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively. Advertising Advertising expenses are included in SG&A expense and are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs were approximately $2.7 million, $2.3 million and $3.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Warranty costs The Company provides limited warranties on workmanship on its products in all market segments. The provision for estimated warranty costs is made in the period when such costs become probable and is based on past warranty experience. See Note 9 for additional information. Income taxes Deferred income tax provisions are determined using the liability method to recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities. This method is based upon differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the respective tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that are expected to apply in the years the temporary differences are expected to be settled or realized. Valuation allowances are recorded where it is considered more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Tax benefits are recognized only for tax positions that are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. Earnings per share Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing consolidated net earnings applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing adjusted consolidated net earnings applicable to common shareholders by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the weighted average number of potential common shares outstanding. Potential common shares consist of outstanding options under the Company’s stock compensation plans. Environmental liabilities Environmental expenditures that relate to current operations are expensed or capitalized as appropriate. Expenditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations and that do not contribute to current or future revenue are expensed. Liabilities are recorded when environmental assessments and/or remedial efforts are probable and can be reasonably estimated. Stock-based compensation Compensation expense for stock-based compensation is recognized over the requisite service period at the estimated fair value of the award at the grant date. The Company granted 438,195, 1,026,946 and 355,201 restricted stock awards in 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. See Note 24 for additional information. Use of estimates The policies utilized by the Company in the preparation of the financial statements conform to United States generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP or GAAP) and require management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts could differ from these estimates and assumptions. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year financial statements to conform to classifications used in the current year. These reclassifications had no impact on net income, stockholders’ equity or cash flows as previously reported. Adoption of new accounting standards In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, as part of its simplification initiative to reduce the cost and complexity in accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. ASU 2019-12 also amends other aspects of the guidance to help simplify and promote consistent application of GAAP. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2021 and it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

The Company is party to a shareholders' agreement with OEP and RDIF (Shareholders' Agreement) which was entered into in connection with the acquisition of Voltyre-Prom. The agreement contains a settlement put option which was exercisable during a six-month period beginning July 9, 2018. The settlement put option required Titan to purchase the equity interests from OEP and RDIF in Voltyre-Prom with cash or Titan common stock, at a value set by the agreement. The value set by the agreement was the greater of: the aggregate of the investment of the selling party and an amount representing an internal rate of return of 8%, or the last twelve months of EBITDA multiplied by 5.5 less net debt times the selling party's ownership percentage. On November 14, 2018, the Company received notification of exercise of the put option from RDIF. On February 11, 2019, the Company entered into a definitive agreement (the "Agreement") with an affiliate of RDIF relating to the put option that was exercised by RDIF. The transactions contemplated by the Agreement closed on February 22, 2019.

Variable Interest Entity Disclosure [Text Block]	VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES The Company holds a variable interest in two joint ventures for which Titan is the primary beneficiary. One of these joint ventures operate distribution facilities that primarily distribute mining products. Titan is the 50% owner of the distribution facility located in Canada. Titan is also a 50% owner of a manufacturer of undercarriage components and complete track systems for earthmoving machines in India. The Company’s variable interests in these joint ventures relate to sales of Titan products to these entities, consigned inventory, and working capital loans. As the primary beneficiary of these variable interest entities (VIEs), the VIEs’ assets, liabilities, and results of operations are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The other equity holders’ interests are reflected in “Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and “Noncontrolling interests” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company also held a variable interest in three other entities for which Titan was the primary beneficiary. Two of these entities provided specific manufacturing related services at the Company's Tennessee facility. Titan's variable interest in these entities related to financial support to the entities through providing many of the assets used by these entities in their business. The Company owned no equity in these entities. In March 2020, the Company delivered a notice of termination of the supply agreement with these entities and the Company no longer holds a variable interest in them. Titan was also a 40% owner in a Australian distribution facility, which primarily distributed mining products. Effective during the second quarter of 2021, the Company is no longer an owner of the facility located in Australia.

Liabilities are non-recourse obligations. Amounts presented in the table above are adjusted for intercompany eliminations. The Company holds variable interests in certain VIEs that are not consolidated because Titan is not the primary beneficiary. The Company's involvement with these entities is in the form of direct equity interests and prepayments related to purchases of materials. The maximum exposure to loss represents the loss of assets recognized by Titan relating to non-consolidated entities and amounts due to the non-consolidated assets.

For 2021 the Company recorded pre-tax income and had a positive effective tax rate and for 2020 the Company recorded a pre-tax loss and had a negative effective tax rate. These both represent tax expense in the consolidated financial statements. In jurisdictions where the Company operates its businesses, management analyzes the ability to utilize its deferred tax assets arising from losses in its cyclical business. The Company continues to record a valuation allowance in several jurisdictions, including the U.S., various U.S. states, Italy, and Australia as it remains more likely than not that the deferred tax assets would not be utilized. In 2021, the Company released the $16.1 million valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets related to Luxembourg. The Company expects to generate positive taxable income in Luxembourg in future periods as a result of the legal entity and loan rationalization completed during 2021. In 2020, the Company recorded a valuation allowance of $22.3 million primarily related to net operating losses generated from operations in the affected jurisdictions. The Company is involved in various tax matters, for some of which the outcome is uncertain. The Company believes that it has adequate tax reserves to address open tax matters acknowledging that the outcome and timing of these events are uncertain. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31, 2021 and 2020, were as follows (amounts in thousands): 2021 2020 Deferred tax assets: Net operating loss carryforwards $ 138,472 $ 151,597 Pension 447 3,904 Inventory 7,602 6,758 Warranty 4,391 5,648 Employee benefits and related costs 8,585 9,819 Prepaid royalties 2,922 3,755 Interest limitation 21,868 16,067 Lease liability 6,482 7,734 Other 17,672 19,633 Deferred tax assets 208,441 224,915 Deferred tax liabilities: Fixed assets (11,455) (15,603) Intangible assets (710) (1,012) Lease assets (6,441) (7,759) Other (3,810) (2,669) Deferred tax liabilities (22,416) (27,043) Subtotal 186,025 197,872 Valuation allowance (173,172) (199,176) Net deferred tax asset (liability) $ 12,853 $ (1,304) As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, certain net tax loss carryforwards of $138.5 million and $151.6 million were available with $3.2 million expiring between 2021 and 2026 and $135.3 million expiring after 2026. At December 31, 2021, a valuation allowance of $173.2 million has been established. The net change in the valuation allowance was $(26.0) million and $34.5 million for 2021 and 2020, respectively. The majority of the valuation allowance is related to deferred tax assets in the U.S., Italy, and Australia. The Company has $178.6 million of gross Federal net operating loss carryforward, a portion of which expires starting in 2035. Additionally, the Company has $321 million of state net operating losses and $334.4 million of foreign loss carryforwards. As a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, the Company can repatriate future foreign earnings back to the U.S. when needed with minimal additional taxes other than state income and foreign withholding tax. The Company has not changed its indefinite reinvestment assertion in light of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and has not accrued any potential incremental taxes which could be incurred if any foreign earnings are repatriated. The Company has not calculated the potential foreign withholding taxes as the Company does not expect to repatriate those earnings. On March 27, 2020, the U.S. government passed the CARES Act (the "CARES Act"), which provides tax relief to assist companies dealing with the effects of COVID-19. The impact of the CARES Act was not material to the Company’s financial position or results of operations, except for the deferral of Social Security payroll taxes, which benefited the Company's operating cash flows through the end of calendar year 2020. On December 27, 2020 the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 (“the Appropriations Act”) was signed into law. The Appropriations Act, among other things includes provisions related to the deductibility of PPP expenses paid with PPP loan proceeds, payroll tax credits, modifications to the meals and entertainment deduction, increased limitations on charitable deductions for corporate taxpayers, and enhancements of expiring tax “extender” provisions. The Company has completed its assessment of the impact of the legislation, and there is no significant impact to the consolidated financial statements. The Company or one of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S., Federal and State, and various foreign jurisdictions. The Company’s major locations are in the U.S., Italy, Australia, Russia, and Brazil. Open tax years for the U.S. are from 2018-2021, for Italy open tax years are from 2016-2021, and for Russia open tax years are from 2018-2021. Australia has open tax years from 2017-2021 and Brazil has open tax years from 2015-2021. The Company has applied the provisions of ASC 740, “Income Taxes” related to unrecognized tax benefits. At December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019, the unrecognized tax benefits were $0.1 million, $0.8 million, and $4.5 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2021, $0.1 million of unrecognized tax benefits would have affected income tax expense if the tax benefits were recognized. The majority of the accrual in unrecognized tax benefits relates to potential state tax exposures. Although management cannot predict with any degree of certainty the timing of ultimate resolution of matters under review by various taxing jurisdictions, it is possible that the Company’s gross unrecognized tax benefits balance will decrease by approximately $0.1 million within the next twelve months. A reconciliation of the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits at December 31 were as follows (amounts in thousands): 2021 2020 2019 Balance at January 1 $ 1,012 $ 4,097 $ 7,406 Increases to tax positions taken during the prior years — 13 973 Decreases to tax positions taken during prior years — — (350) Decreases due to lapse of statutes of limitations (473) (3,099) (3,429) Settlements — — (506) Foreign exchange 1 1 3 Balance at December 31 $ 540 $ 1,012 $ 4,097 The Company accrues interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. The amount of interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits recorded in income tax expense was $(0.2) million, $(1.1) million, and $(1.0) million at December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019. The reconciliation of unrecognized tax benefits above does not include accrued interest and penalties of $0.0 million, $0.3 million, and $1.4 million, at December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively.

Retirement Benefits [Abstract]
EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS	EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS Pension plans The Company has three frozen defined benefit pension plans covering certain employees or former employees of three U.S. subsidiaries. The Company also has pension plans covering certain employees of several foreign subsidiaries. The Company’s policy is to fund pension costs as required by law, which is consistent with the funding requirements of federal laws and regulations. Certain foreign subsidiaries maintain unfunded pension plans consistent with local practices and requirements. The Company’s recorded liability for pensions is based on a number of assumptions, including discount rates, rates of return on investments, mortality rates, and other factors. Certain of these assumptions are determined by the Company with the assistance of outside actuaries. Assumptions are based on past experience and anticipated future trends. These assumptions are reviewed on a regular basis and revised when appropriate. In 2020, the Company changed the assumptions related to the mortality projection scale to better reflect anticipated plan experience and adjusted the discount rate to reflect market conditions as of the measurement date. In 2021, the Company changed the assumption related to the expected long-term return on plan assets to reflect market conditions as of the measurement date. The following table provides the change in benefit obligation, change in plan assets, funded status, and amounts recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheet of the defined benefit pension plans as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 (amounts in thousands): Change in benefit obligation: 2021 2020 Benefit obligation at beginning of year $ 114,940 $ 113,559 Service cost 655 801 Interest cost 2,880 3,496 Actuarial assumption changes — 5,589 Actuarial loss (1,985) 1,237 Benefits paid (8,381) (8,634) Foreign currency translation (1,522) (1,108) Benefit obligation at end of year $ 106,587 $ 114,940 Change in plan assets: Fair value of plan assets at beginning of year $ 89,744 $ 81,375 Actual return on plan assets 13,259 12,749 Employer contributions 1,397 3,433 Benefits paid (7,355) (7,740) Foreign currency translation (38) (73) Fair value of plan assets at end of year $ 97,007 $ 89,744 Unfunded status at end of year $ (9,580) $ (25,196) Amounts recognized in Consolidated Balance Sheet: Noncurrent assets $ 11,095 $ 1,740 Current liabilities (1,551) (1,529) Noncurrent liabilities (19,124) (25,407) Net amount recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheet $ (9,580) $ (25,196) The change in the benefit obligation was mainly driven by the benefits paid from the plans, negative impact of foreign currency translation due to unfavorable exchange rates and actuarial losses and offset by interest costs positively impacting the benefit obligation. The change in the benefit obligation was favorably impacted by the actuarial assumption changes primarily related to discount rate and mortality projection scale table to better reflect the market conditions and anticipated plan experience. The pension benefit obligation included $90.0 million of pension benefit obligation for the three frozen plans in the U.S. and $16.6 million of pension benefit obligation for plans at foreign subsidiaries. The fair value of plan assets included $96.1 million of plan assets for the three frozen plans in the U.S. and $0.9 million of plan assets for foreign plans. Information for pension plans with projected benefit obligations and accumulated benefit obligations in excess of plan assets were (amounts in thousands): 2021 2020 Projected and accumulated benefit obligations (1) $ 59,895 $ 68,265 Fair value of plan assets 39,561 41,695 (1) The majority of the Company's pension plans are frozen plans and therefore there is no difference between the projected and accumulated benefit obligations.

The weighted-average assumptions used in the actuarial computation that derived net periodic pension cost for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019 were as follows: 2021 2020 2019 Discount rate 1.4 % 3.6 % 5.0 % Expected long-term return on plan assets 6.5 % 6.9 % 6.9 % The allocation of the fair value of plan assets was as follows: Percentage of Plan Assets Target Asset Category 2021 2020 2021 U.S. equities (a) 62 % 61 % 40% - 80% Fixed income 23 % 20 % 20% - 50% Cash and cash equivalents 6 % 10 % 0% - 20% International equities (a) 7 % 7 % 0% - 16% REITs 2 % 2 % 100 % 100 % (a) Total equities may not exceed 80% of total plan assets. The majority of the Company's foreign plans do not have plan assets. The foreign plans which have plan assets holds these plan assets in an insurance or money market fund. The fair value of the plan assets by asset categories consisted of the following as of the dates set forth below (amounts in thousands): Fair Value Measurements as of December 31, 2021 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Money market funds $ 5,830 $ 5,830 $ — $ — Common stock 38,231 38,231 — — Bonds and securities 8,240 8,240 — — Mutual and insurance funds 44,706 44,194 512 — Totals $ 97,007 $ 96,495 $ 512 $ — Fair Value Measurements as of December 31, 2020 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Money market funds $ 8,916 $ 8,916 $ — $ — Common stock 35,951 35,951 — — Bonds and securities 3,638 3,638 — — Mutual and insurance funds 41,239 40,410 829 — Totals $ 89,744 $ 88,915 $ 829 $ — The Company invests in a diversified portfolio consisting of an array of asset classes in an attempt to maximize returns while minimizing risk. These asset classes include U.S. equities, fixed income, cash and cash equivalents, international equities and REITs. The investment objectives are to provide for the growth and preservation of plan assets on a long-term basis through investments in: investment grade securities that provide investment returns that meet or exceed the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index and investment grade fixed income securities that provide investment returns that meet or exceed the Barclays Capital Aggregate Bond Index. The U.S. equities asset category included the Company’s common stock in the amount of $1.9 million (approximately one percent of total plan assets) at December 31, 2021, and $0.8 million (approximately two percent of total plan assets) at December 31, 2020. The fair value of money market funds, stock, bonds, U.S. government securities and mutual funds is determined based on valuation for identical instruments in active markets. The long-term rate of return for plan assets is determined using a weighted-average of long-term historical approximate returns on cash and cash equivalents, fixed income securities, and equity securities considering the anticipated investment allocation within the plans. The expected return on plan assets is anticipated to be 6.5% over the long-term. This rate assumes long-term historical returns of approximately 8.5% for equities and approximately 4.0% for fixed income securities using the plans’ target allocation percentages. Professional investment firms, none of which are Titan employees, manage the plan assets. Although the 2022 minimum pension funding calculations are not finalized, the Company estimates those funding requirements will be approximately $0.8 million. Projected benefit payments from the plans as of December 31, 2021, are estimated as follows (amounts in thousands): 2022 8,472 2023 7,908 2024 7,823 2025 7,570 2026 7,272 2027-2031 31,062 401(k)/Defined contribution plans The Company sponsors two 401(k) retirement savings plans in the U.S. and a number of defined contribution plans at foreign subsidiaries. One U.S. plan is for the benefit of substantially all employees who are not covered by a collective bargaining arrangement. Titan provides a 50% matching contribution in the form of the Company’s common stock on the first 6% of the employee’s contribution in this plan. The Company issued 162,356 shares, 653,211 shares and 266,121 shares of common

STOCK OPTION PLANS [Abstract]
STOCK OPTION PLANS	STOCK COMPENSATION The Company recorded stock compensation of $3.4 million, $2.5 million, and $1.4 million in 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively. Titan International, Inc. Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan The Company adopted a new Titan International, Inc. Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan at the 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to provide stock compensation as a means of attracting and retaining qualified independent directors and employees for the Company. A total of 4.3 million shares are available for future issuance under the equity incentive plan at December 31, 2021. Stock Options Under this plan (or its predecessor plan), the Company granted no stock options in 2021, 2020, and 2019. The exercise price of stock options may not be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of the grant. The vesting and term of each option is set by the Board of Directors. All options outstanding at December 31, 2021 are fully vested and expire 10 years from the grant date. The following is a summary of activity in stock options during the year ended December 31, 2021: Shares Subject Weighted- Average Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Life (in Years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands) Outstanding, December 31, 2020 660,700 $ 16.97 Granted — — Exercised — — Forfeited/Expired (207,500) 22.50 Outstanding, December 31, 2021 453,200 14.44 3.79 $ 237,900 Exercisable, December 31, 2021 453,200 14.44 3.79 $ 237,900 No stock options were granted or exercised in 2021, 2020 and 2019. The Company currently uses treasury shares to satisfy any stock option exercises. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had 0.1 million and 0.1 million shares of treasury stock, respectively. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of its stock options. The determination of the fair value of stock option awards on the date of grant using option pricing models is affected by the Company’s stock price, as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables. These variables include the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the expected term of the awards, actual and projected stock option exercise behaviors, risk-free interest rates, and expected dividends. The expected term of options represents the period of time over which options are expected to be outstanding and is estimated based on historical experience. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock calculated over the expected term of the option. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury yields in effect at the date of grant. Restricted Stock Under this plan (or its predecessor plan), the Company granted 438,195, 1,026,946, and 355,201 restricted stock awards under this plan in 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The restricted stock awards to employees vest over a period of three years. The restricted stock awards to the members of the Company's Board of Directors vest over a period of one year.

The fair value of restricted stock vested, based on the stock's fair value on the vesting date, was $7.5 million, $1.3 million, and $0.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively. 2021 Performance Share Awards On December 28, 2021, the Company awarded certain named executive officers grants of long-term performance shares based on the achievement of certain adjusted-EBITDA targets for the fiscal years commencing January 1, 2021 and ending December 31, 2024. The Company recorded $0.9 million of stock compensation expense associated with these awards for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
LITIGATION	LITIGATION The Company is a party to routine legal proceedings arising out of the normal course of business. Due to the difficult nature of predicting unresolved and future legal claims, the Company cannot anticipate or predict the material adverse effect on its consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows as a result of efforts to comply with, or liabilities pertaining to, legal judgments. In June 2015, Titan Tire Corporation (Titan Tire) and Dico, Inc. (Dico) appealed an order from the U.S. District Court for the South District of Iowa granting the federal government’s motion for summary judgment that found Dico liable for violating the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA) and an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrative Order and awarded response costs, civil penalties, and punitive damages. In December 2015, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit reversed the District Court’s summary judgment order with respect to “arranger” liability for Titan Tire and Dico under CERCLA and the imposition of punitive damages against Dico for violating the EPA Administrative Order, but affirmed the summary judgment order imposing civil penalties in the amount of $1.62 million against Dico for violating the EPA Administrative Order. The case was remanded to the District Court for a new trial on the remaining issues. The trial occurred in April 2017. On September 5, 2017, the District Court issued an order: (a) concluding Titan Tire and Dico arranged for the disposal of a hazardous substance in violation of 42 U.S.C. § 9607(a); (b) holding Titan Tire and Dico jointly and severally liable for $5.45 million in response costs previously incurred and reported by the United States relating to the alleged violation, including enforcement costs and attorney’s fees; and (c) awarding a declaratory judgment holding Titan Tire and Dico jointly and severally liable for all additional response costs previously incurred but not yet reported or to be incurred in the future, including enforcement costs and attorney’s fees. The District Court also held Dico liable for $5.45 million in punitive damages under 42 U.S.C. § 9607(c)(3) for violating a unilateral administrative order. The punitive damages award does not apply to Titan Tire. The Company accrued a contingent liability of $6.5 million, representing $5.45 million in costs incurred by the United States and $1.05 million of additional response costs, for this order in the quarter ended September 30, 2017. Titan Tire and Dico appealed the case to the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. On April 11, 2019, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit affirmed the District Court’s September 5, 2017, order. Thereafter, Dico and Titan Tire filed a petition for rehearing with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit, which was denied in August 2019. Following settlement negotiations with the U.S. federal government and the City of Des Moines, an agreement was reached in September 2020 which has been reduced to a Consent Decree that was executed by all parties on February 1, 2021. The Consent Decree prescribes total cash payments by Titan Tire to the federal government in the amount of $11.5 million, with

Leases [Abstract]
LEASE COMMITMENTS	LEASES The Company leases certain buildings and equipment under both operating and finance leases. Certain lease agreements provide for renewal options, fair value purchase options, and payment of property taxes, maintenance, and insurance by the Company. Under ASC 842, the Company made an accounting policy election, by class of underlying asset, not to separate non-lease components such as those previously stated from lease components and instead will treat the lease agreement as a single lease component for all asset classes. Operating right-of-use (ROU) assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent Titan's obligations to make lease payments arising from the lease. The majority of Titan's leases are operating leases. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of Titan's leases do not provide an implicit interest rate, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate (7.27%), based on the information available at the lease commencement date, in determining the present value of lease payments. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Amortization expense associated with finance leases is included in cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses, and interest expense associated with finance leases is included in interest expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Information	SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION The Company has aggregated its operating units into reportable segments based on its three customer markets: agricultural, earthmoving/construction, and consumer. These segments are based on the information used by the chief executive officer to make certain operating decisions, allocate portions of capital expenditures and assess segment performance. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1, “Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies.” Segment external revenues, expenses, and income from operations are determined on the basis of the results of operations of operating units of manufacturing facilities. Segment assets are generally determined on the basis of the tangible assets located at such operating units’ manufacturing facilities and the intangible assets associated with the acquisitions of such operating units. However, certain operating units’ goodwill and property, plant, and equipment balances are carried at the corporate level. Titan is organized primarily on the basis of products being included in three marketing segments, with each reportable segment including wheels, tires, wheel/tire assemblies, and undercarriage systems and components. The table below presents information about certain operating results of segments as reviewed by the chief operating decision maker of the Company as of and for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019 (amounts in thousands): 2021 2020 2019 Revenues from external customers Agricultural $ 949,400 $ 634,652 $ 652,558 Earthmoving/construction 693,350 510,150 648,753 Consumer 137,465 114,511 147,355 $ 1,780,215 $ 1,259,313 $ 1,448,666 Gross profit Agricultural $ 135,807 $ 65,408 $ 55,971 Earthmoving/construction 83,705 37,885 57,678 Consumer 18,030 11,026 15,355 $ 237,542 $ 114,319 $ 129,004 Income (loss) from operations Agricultural $ 77,666 $ 9,838 $ 10,991 Earthmoving/construction 27,809 (21,620) (1,892) Consumer 9,553 1,085 1,849 Corporate & Unallocated (29,853) (24,654) (39,380) Income (loss) from operations 85,175 (35,351) (28,432) Interest expense (32,221) (30,554) (33,137) Loss on senior note repurchase (16,020) — — Foreign exchange gain (loss) 12,020 (11,025) 3,999 Other income, net 2,086 18,799 9,526 Income (loss) before income taxes $ 51,040 $ (58,131) $ (48,044) Capital expenditures Agricultural $ 20,749 $ 10,869 $ 16,500 Earthmoving/construction 15,014 8,859 16,229 Consumer 3,039 1,952 3,685 $ 38,802 $ 21,680 $ 36,414 Depreciation & amortization Agricultural $ 25,082 $ 26,534 $ 23,478 Earthmoving/construction 18,428 21,328 23,235 Consumer 3,621 4,785 5,277 Corporate & Unallocated 860 2,008 2,386 $ 47,991 $ 54,655 $ 54,376 Total assets Agricultural $ 517,528 $ 444,843 $ 423,955 Earthmoving/construction 502,373 478,264 496,988 Consumer 133,906 86,752 123,320 Corporate & Unallocated (a) 28,878 22,025 70,044 $ 1,182,685 $ 1,031,884 $ 1,114,307 (a) Unallocated assets included cash of approximately $7 million, $13 million, and $9 million at year-end 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively.

Subsequent Events [Text Block]	SUBSEQUENT EVENTS By January 12, 2022, the employees represented by the United Steelworkers at each of the Company’s Bryan, Ohio; Freeport, Illinois; and Des Moines, Iowa facilities voted to ratify new three year contracts which expire on November 16, 2024. On February 1, 2022, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with the RDIF equity holders to buy back 4,032,259 shares restricted Titan common stock for the previously agreed amount of $25 million. The transaction was completed on February 1, 2022. In February 2022, in response to the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the United States, other North Atlantic Treaty Organization member states, as well as non-member states, have announced targeted economic sanctions on Russia, certain Russian citizens and enterprises. The continuation of the conflict may trigger a series of additional economic and other sanctions enacted by the United States, other North Atlantic Treaty Organization member states, and other countries. The potential impact of bans, sanction programs, and boycotts on our business is uncertain at the current time due to the fluid nature of the military conflict as it is unfolding. The potential impacts include supply chain and logistics disruptions, financial impacts including disruptions to the execution of banking transactions with certain Russian financial institutions, volatility in foreign exchange rates and interest rates, inflationary pressures on raw materials and energy, heightened cybersecurity threats and other restrictions. As the Company maintains operations in Russia, any such economic sanctions may also result in an adverse effect on its Russian operations. The Company currently owns 64.3% of the Russian entity, which represents approximately 7% of consolidated assets of Titan as of December 31, 2021. The Russian operations represents approximately 6% of consolidated global sales for the year ended December 31, 2021. As of the date of issuance of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the impact of the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine has not had a significant impact on global operations. The Company continues to monitor the potential impacts on the business and the ancillary impacts that the war could have on other global operations. The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the filing of this Form 10-K and determined that there have been no additional subsequent events that have occurred that would require adjustments to our disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)	12 Months Ended
	Dec. 31, 2021
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Principles of consolidation	Principles of consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all majority-owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities in which Titan is the primary beneficiary. Investments in companies in which Titan does not own a majority interest, but which Titan has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies are accounted for using the equity method. Investments in other companies are carried at cost. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Cash equivalents	Cash and cash equivalents The Company considers short-term debt securities with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The cash in the Company's U.S. banks is not fully insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Company had $86.4 million and $100.4 million of cash in foreign bank accounts at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company's cash in its foreign bank accounts is not fully insured.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts	Accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accountsThe Company carries its accounts receivable at their face amounts less an allowance for doubtful accounts. An allowance for uncollectible receivables is recorded based upon the best estimate of credit losses in accounts receivable. In order to monitor credit risks associated with our customer base, credit worthiness of our existing customer base is reviewed on a periodic basis. At the end of each reporting period, the allowance for doubtful accounts is reviewed relative to management's collectibility assessment and adjusted if deemed necessary. The factors considered in this review include known bad debt risks and past loss history. Actual collection experience may differ from the current estimate of net receivables.
Inventories	Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company’s inventories are valued under the first in, first out (FIFO) method or average cost method. Net realizable value is estimated based on current selling prices. Estimated provisions are established for slow-moving and obsolete inventory.
Fixed assets	Fixed assets Property, plant, and equipment have been recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives of the related assets: Years Building and improvements 25 - 40 Machinery and equipment 7 - 20 Tools, dies, and molds 2 - 9 Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. When property, plant, and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are eliminated, and any gain or loss on disposition is included in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Fair value of financial instruments	Fair value of financial instruments The Company records all financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, accounts payable, and notes payable at cost, which approximates fair value due to their short term or stated rates. Investments in marketable equity securities are recorded at fair value. Our 7.00% senior secured notes due 2028 (the senior secured notes due 2028) were carried at cost of $394.5 million at December 31, 2021. The fair value of the senior secured notes due 2028 at December 31, 2021, as obtained through an independent pricing source, was approximately $424.9 million.
Equity Method Investments [Policy Text Block]	Investments The Company sold its remaining equity method investment in Wheels India Limited (Wheels India) during 2020 resulting in net proceeds of $32.9 million and net loss of $0.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. This equity method investment was included in other long-term assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company assesses the carrying value of its equity method investments whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not be recoverable. Investment write-downs, if necessary, are recognized in operating results when expected undiscounted future cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset. These write-downs, if any, are measured as the excess of the carrying value of the asset over the discounted expected future cash flows or the estimated fair value of the asset. The Company uses the cost method to account for investments in entities that are not consolidated or accounted for under the equity method. Under the cost method, investments are reported at cost in other long-term assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair values of cost method investments are not estimated if there are no identified events or changes in circumstances that may have a significant adverse effect on the fair values of the investments.
Foreign currency translation	Foreign currency translation The financial statements of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are translated to United States dollars. Assets and liabilities are translated to United States dollars at period-end exchange rates. Income and expense items are translated at average rates of exchange prevailing during the period. Translation adjustments are included in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” in stockholders’ equity. Gains and losses that result from foreign currency transactions are included in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Revenue recognition	Revenue recognition The Company records sales revenue when products are shipped to customers and when our performance obligations with our customer are satisfied. Our obligations under the contracts are satisfied when we transfer control of our products to our customer which is generally upon shipment. Provisions are established for sales returns and uncollectible accounts based on historical experience. Should trends change, adjustments would be necessary to the estimated provisions.
Cost of sales	Cost of sales Cost of sales is comprised primarily of direct materials and supplies consumed in the manufacturing of the Company’s products, as well as manufacturing labor, depreciation expense, and overhead expense necessary to acquire and convert the purchased materials and supplies into a finished product. Cost of sales also includes all purchasing, receiving, inspection, internal transfers, and related distribution costs.
Selling, general and administrative expense	Selling, general, and administrative expenseSelling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expense is comprised primarily of sales commissions, marketing expense, selling, and administrative wages, information system costs, legal fees, bank charges, professional fees, depreciation and amortization expense on non-manufacturing assets, and other administrative items
Research and development expense	Research and development expenseResearch and development (R&D) expenses are expensed as incurred.  R&D costs were $10.1 million, $9.0 million, and $9.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively.
Advertising	Advertising Advertising expenses are included in SG&A expense and are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs were approximately $2.7 million, $2.3 million and $3.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Warranty costs	Warranty costs The Company provides limited warranties on workmanship on its products in all market segments. The provision for estimated warranty costs is made in the period when such costs become probable and is based on past warranty experience. See Note 9 for additional information.
Income taxes	Income taxes Deferred income tax provisions are determined using the liability method to recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities. This method is based upon differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the respective tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that are expected to apply in the years the temporary differences are expected to be settled or realized. Valuation allowances are recorded where it is considered more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Tax benefits are recognized only for tax positions that are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities.
Earnings per share	Earnings per share Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing consolidated net earnings applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing adjusted consolidated net earnings applicable to common shareholders by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the weighted average number of potential common shares outstanding. Potential common shares consist of outstanding options under the Company’s stock compensation plans.
Environmental liabilities	Environmental liabilitiesEnvironmental expenditures that relate to current operations are expensed or capitalized as appropriate.  Expenditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations and that do not contribute to current or future revenue are expensed. Liabilities are recorded when environmental assessments and/or remedial efforts are probable and can be reasonably estimated
Stock-based compensation	Stock-based compensation Compensation expense for stock-based compensation is recognized over the requisite service period at the estimated fair value of the award at the grant date. The Company granted 438,195, 1,026,946 and 355,201 restricted stock awards in 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. See Note 24 for additional information.
Use of estimates	Use of estimatesThe policies utilized by the Company in the preparation of the financial statements conform to United States generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP or GAAP) and require management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual amounts could differ from these estimates and assumptions
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Adoption of new accounting standards In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, as part of its simplification initiative to reduce the cost and complexity in accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. ASU 2019-12 also amends other aspects of the guidance to help simplify and promote consistent application of GAAP. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2021 and it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
