This section includes basic principles of tires and wheels,mounting and demounting using center post and rim clamp machines, balancing, using a lift, and proper torque procedures. An additional course has been added to cover servicing tires with Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems.

Basic ATS and TPMS training certificates will be issued from TIA.
