Key Features

Next-Generation Technology

• TireX boasts superior sensor technology with unmatched accuracy and thermal compensation, setting it apart from other sensors. Its thermal array design extends its applications beyond just measuring tire temperatures.

Enhanced Performance

• Gain insights into tire performance to fine-tune your suspension for better grip and faster lap times. TireX helps identify areas for improvement, enabling you to make adjustments that lead to winning races.

Wide Field of View

• With a 110-degree field of view, TireX simultaneously reads multiple zones across your tire, fitting seamlessly with tight fenders and wide tires.

Multiple Temperature Zones

• Select from 1, 2, 4, 8, or 16 temperature zones per tire, providing up to 64 channels of data for detailed analysis.

Corner-Specific Data

• Assign each sensor to a specific vehicle corner, accurately reporting inside edge to outside, regardless of the left or right position.

Rugged and Compact Design

• Designed for easy mounting above front tires to minimize steering-induced errors, TireX is both rugged and low-profile.

High-Quality Connectors

• Equipped with industrial-grade M8 connectors, TireX integrates seamlessly with your wiring harness using only four wires: 12v power, ground, and two CAN bus connections.

Plug-and-Play Harness

• Save hours of installation time with our ready-made four-corner plug-and-play harness, eliminating the need for custom wiring.

Real-Time Telemetry Integration

• Compatible with Podium for real-time tire temperature analysis right from the pits. Analyze data instantly to make necessary adjustments before your car even returns to the pits.

Wide Compatibility

• TireX integrates easily with popular data systems like AiM, MoTeC, and AEM through a simple CAN bus protocol.

Advanced Thermal Imaging

• Beyond tire temperatures, the 16 x 12 thermal imaging sensor generates 192 channels of data to monitor hot spots on your race car in real-time.

Customizable Settings

• Customize all settings via software commands with configurations saved in non-volatile flash memory, ensuring they are retained across power cycles.
