Hunter Engineering Company and U.S. AutoForce have partnered up to offer their customers an integrated tire inspection/quoting solution.
This new integration allows service advisors to easily quote tire replacement options provided by Hunter's Quick Tread Edge inspection system.
“Auto dealers continue to grow their share of the near-$36 billion tire replacement market, making speed and convenience key to selling more tires,” said Alan Hagerty, Hunter product manager. “Hundreds of tires roll through the typical dealership every day. We know approximately 15 percent need immediate replacement, or replacement soon. With Hunter and U.S. AutoForce, auto dealers can quickly pinpoint those tire needs and easily present replacement options,” he said.
Available through its website, the U.S. AutoForce Tire Quote solution enables users to search for and order tires by size, make of vehicle, and VIN. While the Hunter Quick Tread Edge scans each tire edge to edge to provide 3-D models which illustrate the extent of the tire's tread wear. This integration is available to customers at no additional cost from Hunter.
