…let us start rethinking the wheels and tires business together!

The automotive industry is in a state of transition. Key drivers such as digitalization, connectivity and emissions reduction are showing up in various forms such as electrification, (partially) autonomous driving and car sharing. These developments are impacting the value chain, including the aftersales business.

In this constellation, complete wheels, rims and tires in particular also play an important role. After the new vehicle is handed over, these products are often the first part in the vehicle's life cycle for which customers have a need for replacement or additional products.

However, it is not just a matter of having the right products available at the right time, but also of professionalizing service offerings and service processes. The objective is to appear to customers as a competent supplier of wheels and tires, to ensure customer satisfaction and to use those products and their related services as a loyalty tool.

On the way here, car manufacturers and car dealerships face high challenges, as there are some complexities of this business segment which need to be mastered.

We are your partner on the path to a long-term positive development of your business.
