Truck tyre log and replacement history
Follow a tyre’s identity and position so a replacement invoice becomes part of a useful history.

Make the record useful
A tyre or tire log connects each item to its work history. “Two tyres replaced” says little about which tyres left the truck or why. A consistent identifier and position record connect the invoice to the right item. This history records work and observations; it does not recommend continued use.
What to record
- Identify the truck or trailer, tyre and position. Use your fleet’s position naming consistently and record the product as shown on the invoice.
- Record installation and removal dates and odometer readings in kilometres. Note a move to another position or vehicle rather than treating it as a new tyre.
- Record the exact make, model and size, tyre cost excluding tax, removal reason and next action. Record observations without making a safety conclusion from a note alone.
Use a separate row for each tracked installation period. If a tyre moves, close that period and start another with the same identifier; do not count its purchase cost twice. The workbook calculates the odometer difference. An unfinished interval stays open, and “Check km” needs correction. For trailers without reliable distance records, do not invent kilometres.
Use the result
Compare similar axle positions, work and record completeness. A distance comparison means little if one entry omits part of the tyre’s history. Review removal reasons with the supplier or maintenance team. Before calculating a lifetime cost yourself, combine the complete history and relevant costs once. Keep warranty credits with the supporting records.
Common mistakes
Do not assume an odometer difference follows a tyre after it changes vehicles. Do not merge tyres in a dual assembly into one unidentified record. A tread or pressure observation without its unit, position and measurement context can be difficult to interpret later.
What this log covers
The worksheet supplies no fitment approval, pressure target, tread limit or safe-to-operate decision. Use the applicable vehicle and tyre guidance and qualified inspection.
