the processing unit calculates an average vehicle speed of each of the trips of the vehicle by dividing the mileage of each of the trips of the vehicle by the driving time, and proposes the appropriate tire based on the calculated average vehicle speed of each of the trips of the vehicle.

2. The tire proposal system according to claim 1 , wherein the processing unit proposes the appropriate tire based on a ratio of the number of trips in which the average vehicle speed is equal to or lower than a predetermined vehicle speed to the total number of trips of the vehicle.

3. The tire proposal system according to claim 2 , wherein when the ratio is equal to or higher than a predetermined ratio, the processing unit proposes a tire that prioritizes fuel efficiency and riding quality over high speed traveling stability as the appropriate tire, and when the ratio is lower than the predetermined ratio, the processing unit proposes a tire that prioritizes the high speed traveling stability over the fuel efficiency and the riding quality as the appropriate tire.
