Tires by position
Each tire is recorded at its position on the unit, so you can see which tire is on which wheel today, not which one was there at the last rotation.
Tires and warranties
Know where every tire is and when every warranty ends
Follow each tire by its position from mount to removal, with tread depth readings, retreads and cost per mile. Record warranties with their date and mileage limits, and get an email 30 days before one expires. Both are on Premium.
Included from the Premium plan
| Position | Tread |
|---|---|
| Steer, left | 14/32 |
| Steer, right | 13/32 |
| Drive 1, left outer (retread) | 17/32 |
| Drive 1, left inner | 18/32 |
Tread readings saved
What RigMD keeps on each tire and warranty
Mounts and removals
Record each time a tire goes on and comes off. When a tire moves from T-114 to T-131, its record moves with it instead of starting over.
Tread depth readings
Log tread depth readings as you measure them. A tire’s readings sit together on its record, so you can see how it is wearing and plan the replacement.
Retreads
Record retreads on the tire itself, so a casing that has been back to the retreader keeps one record from its first mount onward.
Cost per mile for each tire
RigMD works out cost per mile for each tire. That puts a number on the difference between two brands, or between a new tire and a retread, before you buy the next set.
Warranty expiry email
Record each warranty with its end date and mileage limit. RigMD sends an email 30 days before a warranty expires, while there is still time to use it.
A record for each tire, not just each truck
Tires are one of the larger running costs on a truck, and one of the hardest to follow on paper. A drive tire comes off T-114, goes out for a retread and goes back on T-131 three months later. Unless somebody writes that down, the tire’s history ends the day it leaves the first truck.
In RigMD the tire has its own record. Mounts, removals, tread readings and retreads stay with it, and cost per mile is worked out for that tire rather than averaged across the fleet. When a tire goes on during a repair, it can be added straight to the work order for the job.
Warranties that do not lapse unnoticed
A warranty is only worth something if somebody remembers it before it ends. Many fleets keep them in a folder in the office: the coverage on a newer truck, a rebuilt transmission, a set of batteries. The folder does not tell anyone when time is running out.
Record each one in RigMD with its end date and mileage limit. Thirty days before a warranty expires, RigMD sends an email, which gives the shop a month to look at the covered parts. Dealing with the dealer or the warranty company stays with your shop.

Questions, answered
Which plan includes tires and warranties?
Premium. Tire tracking, adding tires to a work order and the warranty expiry email all come with Premium. See pricing.
What does RigMD do with tread readings?
It keeps them on the tire’s record with its mounts, removals and retreads, so you can see the wear over time. Deciding when to pull a tire stays with your shop.
Can I see what each tire costs per mile?
Yes. Each tire shows its own cost per mile, which makes it easier to compare brands, or new tires against retreads, when you order the next set.
When does the warranty email go out?
Thirty days before a warranty expires. Record the end date and the mileage limit when you enter the warranty.
Does RigMD deal with the warranty company for me?
No. RigMD records each warranty’s date and mileage limit and sends the reminder email. Working with the dealer or the warranty company stays with your shop.
Can tires be added to a work order?
Yes, on Premium. A tire can go on the work order for the job, next to parts typed in or picked from parts stock.
