AIWheelTech vs DriveRightData.
DriveRightData was founded in the UK and has supplied wheel and tyre fitment data since 2001; it is now one of the Infopro Digital Automotive brands. Its database holds OE, OE optional, aftermarket upstep and winter fitments back to 1946, is used in over 70 countries and works with ACES/VCdb, MVRIS and KTYPE, and it also offers VRM enablement and a wheel and tyre visualiser. AIWheelTech is a newer fitment API that works in any market, with published prices from free up to Enterprise bulk delivery, where each vehicle’s fitment is matched against a live catalogue of wheels and tyres with trade prices and stock. A buyer that needs vehicles back to 1946, or data mapped to ACES/VCdb, MVRIS or KTYPE codes, is better served by DriveRightData. A retailer, wholesaler or platform that wants to start free, see every price and match fitment to wheels it can sell is better served by AIWheelTech.
Where AIWheelTech is stronger.
Start free, today
DriveRightData invites you to book a meeting. The AIWheelTech API is free for 1,000 calls a month, and every paid tier is priced on the page.
Answers with products you can sell
The compatible wheels and tyres come back from a live catalogue with trade prices and stock, not only the sizes that fit.
MOT history in the same API
DVSA MOT history sits alongside fitment, so one number plate gives the car, its MOT record and the wheels that fit.
Ready-made tools as well as data
The vehicle and wheel selector, registration lookup, MOT History and Ally drop onto any website as snippets, so you are not building every screen yourself.
