Discolor Tyres Help Inexperienced Drivers Know When to Replace Tires

— December 27, 2012 — Autos
Discolor Tyres help drivers see via a color-coded system when their tires need to be replaced.

Tires often wear out without the drivers noticing unless they come upon a routine check or something happens on the road, which may often be too late. Rather than constantly checking tires up close, the Discolor Tyres provides an easy solution. By coding the wheels with a vibrant orange, drivers can see the wear and tear in specific spots of the wheel and know when to replace them. Once the color is worn out and missing, users will know it's time. This system is intuitive and simple, making it easy for drivers to know when to head to the shop for a replacement, even if they are not familiar with cars.
Trend Themes
1. Color-coded Wear Indicators - Opportunity for developing products or technologies that use color-coded indicators to notify users when certain parts need to be replaced.
2. Intuitive Tire Maintenance Systems - Disruptive innovation potential in creating more user-friendly and intuitive methods for monitoring tire wear and maintenance.
3. Simplified Maintenance Solutions - Opportunity for developing simplified maintenance solutions that help even inexperienced users identify when to replace parts or perform maintenance tasks.
Industry Implications
1. Automotive Accessories - Opportunity for companies in the automotive accessories industry to create and market color-coded wear indicator products for tires.
2. Automotive Maintenance - Disruptive innovation potential in the automotive maintenance industry for developing intuitive systems and solutions to simplify tire maintenance and replacement.
3. Auto Repair Services - Opportunity for auto repair service providers to offer simplified maintenance solutions and services that help drivers easily identify when to replace tires.
