Position by position
The tire record shows the wheel each tire sits on today, so the steer tires on T-226 are never mixed up with the pair that was there before the last rotation.
Tires and warranties
Every tire by position, every warranty before it runs out
Each tire is followed at its wheel position from the day it is mounted to the day it comes off, with its tread readings, retreads and its own cost per mile. Warranties are entered with their end date and mileage limit, and RigMD sends a reminder email 30 days before one expires. Both are Premium features.
Included from the Premium plan
| Position | Tread |
|---|---|
| Steer, left | 12/32 |
| Steer, right | 12/32 |
| Drive 1, right outer (retread) | 16/32 |
| Drive 2, left inner | 19/32 |
Tread readings recorded
Tire and warranty records, unit by unit
On and off
Mounts and removals are logged as they happen. Move a drive tire from T-226 to T-231 and it keeps its history instead of starting over as a new tire.
Tread readings
Readings from the tread gauge are entered whenever you measure, and together they build a wear history you can use to plan the next replacement.
Retreads
A retread is logged against the casing, so a tire that has been to the retreader twice still has a single record going back to its first mount.
Cost per mile, tire by tire
Each tire gets its own cost per mile, which turns a brand debate, or new versus retreaded, into a number. The tire screen labels the figure cost per mile.
Warranty reminder
Warranties carry an end date and a mileage limit, and RigMD sends an email 30 days before one expires so the coverage can still be used.
A history for the tire, not only the truck
Tires are a large running cost on a highway tractor, and paper records lose track of them quickly. Picture a drive tire pulled from T-226 for a retread and fitted to T-231 three months later: on paper, its story usually ends when it leaves the first truck.
In RigMD the tire carries its own record wherever it goes. Its mounts, removals, tread readings and retreads stay attached, and its cost per mile is worked out for that tire alone instead of as a fleet average. When a tire goes on during a repair, it can be added to that job’s work order.
Warranties that actually get used
Warranty coverage is easy to forget once the paperwork is filed: a powertrain warranty on a newer tractor, a rebuilt transmission, a set of batteries bought in the fall. A folder in the office will not tell anyone the end date is near.
Put each warranty into RigMD with its end date and mileage limit. Thirty days before it runs out, the reminder email lands, which leaves the shop time to look over the covered parts. Working with the dealer or the warranty provider is still up to you.

Questions, answered
Are tires and warranties on Premium only?
Yes. Tire tracking, adding tires to a work order and the warranty reminder email are Premium features. Compare plans on pricing.
Where do tread readings go?
Onto the tire’s own record, beside its mounts, removals and retreads, so you can see how it has worn. Deciding when it comes off is your shop’s call.
Is tire cost shown per kilometre?
No. The tire screen shows cost per mile for each tire, and that is the figure to weigh brands, or new against retreaded, when you reorder.
How early does the warranty email arrive?
Thirty days before the warranty expires. Enter the end date and the mileage limit when you add it.
Does RigMD contact the warranty provider?
No. RigMD keeps the dates and limits and sends the reminder; any conversation with the dealer or the provider is yours to have.
Can a tire be added to a work order?
Yes, on Premium, alongside typed-in parts and parts picked from stock.
