Prerequisites

Before you begin

Have these items ready. You don’t need perfect records to start — TireGuy only counts data you’ve verified against your paperwork.

  • A fleet of at least one commercial vehicle (tractor, trailer, van, bus, or any combination)
  • Tire purchase records — dealer invoices or receipts with verified per-tire costs
  • Mileage data — odometer readings at tire install and removal dates, or current mileage for active tires
  • Basic unit information — unit numbers, vehicle type, and axle configuration
  • A business email address for your TireGuy account
Start with what you have

You don’t need complete records on every unit before you begin. Even partial data will surface real CORM numbers for the tires you do track. You can add more records at any time — the analysis updates automatically.

01
Step One

Create your account

Takes about two minutes. As low as 1$ per unit per Month.

  1. Click Get TireGuy App in the nav bar above, or go directly to the signup page below.
  2. Select your plan. Starter covers fleets up to 100 units. Pro is the most popular tier for fleets of up to 300 units.
  3. Enter your business name, email address, and a password. Use your business email — invoices and reports will be delivered there.
  4. Check your inbox for a verification email and click the confirmation link. Your account is active immediately after you subscribe.

Step Two

Set up your fleet

Add the units you want to analyze. TireGuy tracks CORM by axle position, so the more detail you enter now, the more granular your analysis will be.

  1. From your dashboard, click Fleet in the left sidebar.
  2. Click Add Unit. Enter your unit number, vehicle type (tractor, trailer, box truck, van, bus, etc.), and model year.
  3. Select the axle configuration. TireGuy automatically creates tracking positions — steer, drive, and trailer axles — based on your selection.
  4. Save the unit and repeat for each vehicle you want to track. You can always add more units later.
Bulk import for larger fleets

Large fleets may qualify for bulk imports of all your units at once. Contact us for information.

Step Three

Log your tire data

This is where TireGuy gets its signal. Enter actual verified costs and mileage from your service records — no estimates, no industry averages. Your CORM is only as accurate as the data behind it.

  1. Select a unit from your Fleet list and tap a tire position (steer, drive, or trailer).
  2. Enter the tire make and model.
  3. Enter the verified cost — the actual per-tire amount from your dealer invoice. Do not estimate or average costs across a purchase.
  4. Enter the mileage on — the vehicle odometer reading on the date the tire was mounted.
  5. Enter the tread depth — depth at every service interval.
  6. Tireguy can begin predicting tire runouts as early as 15% - 20% into the life of each tire. No need to wait anymore for a tires' complete runout to find out what its worth!
  7. When a tire is runout, record the latest mileage and tread depths and add new tires to that position. TireGuy calculates the CORM for that tire automatically.
Only real data matters

TireGuy calculates CORM real-time, from the data as you enter it. This is by design — it keeps your numbers clean, auditable, and defensible when you’re negotiating with vendors.

Step Four

Run your first CORM report

Once you have runouts on one tire — TireGuy will calculate your first CORM number.

  1. Your Overview CORM By Position from the Home Page / Dashboard.
  2. Set your date range. Start with the last 12 months if you have historical data, or since your first tire entry if you’re starting fresh.
  3. ClickExplore
  4. Apply filters by unit, brand, model, or axle position — or leave all filters open to see your full-fleet CORM at once.
  5. Review the breakdown. TireGuy shows your cost-per-mile by tire make, model and position so you can compare apples to apples.
  6. CORM analysis built from your verified fleet data. Bring it with you to your next vendor conversation.
What a good CORM looks like

Long-haul operations typically see steer CORM between $0.028–$0.042 per mile and drive CORM between $0.018–$0.032. If your numbers fall outside these ranges, TireGuy’s brand comparison will show you exactly which tires are dragging the number up — and by how much.

After Setup

What happens next

TireGuy’s value compounds as your data builds. Here’s the timeline.

Day One
Live CORM on runouts

Any tire with a runout will show a calculated CORM immediately. Your numbers update in real time as you log service data.

30 Days
Tire Overviews

With 30 days of mileage accumulation, TireGuy’s 30/60/90-day tire overviews become meaningful. You’ll see top makes and models by brand, category, position, and unit — for both running tires and runouts, so you can plan your tire budget with data instead of guesswork.

10–12 Months
Industry benchmarking unlocks

After a full year of data, TireGuy compares your CORM against anonymized data from fleets running the same equipment in the same type of operation. You’ll see exactly where you rank — and what moving to the median would save you annually.
