CIMS, Autel announce upgrade of their ITS600 tire registration system

Akron, OH – On the heels of its partnership with Autel Intelligent Technology Corporation late last year, CIMS, the world’s largest independent tire registration group, has collaborated again with Autel to upgrade their joint tire registration scanning system, ITS600.

“The ability to scan the TIN (tire identification number) gives our customers additional security and accuracy elements that eliminate the potential mistakes and documentation of invalid tire identification numbers,” said, Jeff Coffman, VP Sales & Marketing of Akron, Ohio-based CIMS Tire Registration. “This new capability enables a fully automated tire registration process that is cost effective and convenient.

“Partnering with Autel for this upgrade allows CIMS to give tire dealers another economical but still leading-edge option to register tires. The ability to scan the TIN to register, check for recalls and confirm tire age on Autel’s tool will increase the number of tire dealers registering tires resulting in a consumer safety win.”

Autel’s John Amato said, “In addition to being able to perform TPMS diagnostics, sensor programming and vehicle re-learns the Autel ITS600 will now have the ability to perform DOT Tire Registration on board the tool. The compact wireless ITS600 creates a seamless workflow that can help our customers remain in complete compliance with DOT registration mandates.
