Clare Hetherington Marketing Manager for DriveRightData stated “Now more than ever data is one of the most valuable assets an organization can have. To ensure businesses can make the best decisions, it is essential they can trust the data they receive. Our OE wheel and tire fitment data, in combination with the incredible breadth of information that Bisnode are able to offer, provides a winning combination for any modern automotive business.”
For several years now a partnership has existed between the two companies, with the focus on the provision of data for the automotive aftermarket sectors within Norway, Finland and Sweden. With this latest development however, the cooperation has officially been extended to a new level. The new venture further improves vehicle information on an international level jointly furnishing markets in Scandinavia and other European markets with additional vehicle fitment intelligence.
Roza Takiporian, Product Manager for Bisnode commented “Today, high quality data is more important than ever. Bisnode is proud of our partnership with DriveRightData. The data they provide enables us to complete our car model data packages with qualitative wheel and tire information. We believe that by partnering with trusted data suppliers, such as DriveRightData, we can provide our customers the tools they need to make their businesses grow.”
The OE wheel and tire information provided contains many features which give businesses the opportunity to understand the exact fitment requirements and details for each vehicle.

28. August 2020
The new collaboration combines the provision of market leading data with the open and agnostic Fortellis Automotive Commerce Exchange™ platform to improve the customer experience around aftermarket upgrade options through online retailing.
"Our new partnership with CDK Global will allow an exchange of information that benefits dealerships and vendors throughout the entire wheel and tire purchase process chain," said Clare Hetherington, marketing manager of DriveRightData. "The use of intelligent data forms the basis for integrated vehicle identification, creating enhanced user experiences and customer benefits required from an increasingly demanding market."
Dealerships can also choose the level of information they need from a wide range of APIs available through Fortellis, and are able to easily integrate the data into their systems, websites and apps. Data can be provided for vehicle, manufacturer fitted wheel and tire fitment as well as supplemental information including aftermarket upgrade options. Additional DriveRightData APIs on Fortellis are available that help ensure consumers choose compatible products, such as vehicle searches based on license plate or make or model, to reduce mis-sold or returned items.
"DriveRightData and CDK Global both have a history of creating great customer experiences and bringing together our programming expertise and quality data allows us to deliver extraordinary innovation,” said Leigh Ann Conver, senior director of strategy, Fortellis. “Leveraging the power of the Fortellis marketplace provides dealerships with all the tools they need to optimize sales and deliver amazing customer service.”
The data provided by DriveRightData gives the consumer the ability to choose whether to put the same size wheel and tire combination on their vehicle or the choice to customize their vehicle by advising which increased wheel and tire sizes are compatible. Customers can then easily identify higher grade wheel and tire options that are matched with their vehicle. The increased aftermarket sales provides the opportunity for dealerships to attract a higher footfall to the service area, and showrooms overall.

DriveRightData Wheel Testing Center receives SFI Accreditation
12. December 2019
The facility is completely independent, being able to test tires, wheels and related automotive components and has this week gained approval by SFI; being recognized as a testing source to test drag and race wheels to meet SFI Foundation, Inc. (SFI) specifications. SFI is established as the leader in performance standards and safety and their standards apply to:
• Drag Race Drive Wheels
• Stock Car Steel Wheels
• Heavy Duty Stock Car Steel Wheels
SFI is a US non-profit organization established to issue and administer standards for specialty/performance automotive and racing equipment. The organization has a formal relationship with more than 200 race sanctioning bodies, providing an SFI standard compliance label for use on race-related products.
DriveRightData’s Wheel Testing Center offers a number of standard and custom test options and recreates ‘real-world’ testing environments that replicate field conditions and SFI standards must be met in order for products to be used in sanctioned race events. To ensure the manufactured product complies with approved SFI specs, our laboratory locates weaknesses commonly found in race wheels utilizing our Dynamic Radial Fatigue Test, Dynamic Cornering Test and 13 Degree Impact Test.
"Our Road Hazard Impact Test Machine simulates the wheel impact often received in racing, testing wheels for weakness after impact," said Clare Hetherington, Marketing Manager for DriveRightData Wheel Testing Centre, "The Dynamic Cornering Fatigue Machine tests the mounting face and support features where the rear wheels bolt to the hub." “We are able to offer race teams and wheel manufacturers independent validation and testing for vehicles reaching speeds in excess of 320 mph and that entire load from the motor has to go through the wheel. By ensuring that wheel and tires are compliant, we can help make racing as exciting but as safe as possible and have evolved our testing facilities to deal with faster, more powerful cars.
DriveRightData operates globally as one of the newest but fastest growing independent testing facilities for tires, wheels and related automotive components. Through its global divisions, DriveRightData is the market leading supplier of automotive data, with a database of over 150,000 vehicles.
