Common Questions
Does RepairPal let customers buy tires or wheels online?
RepairPal is primarily a website, SEO, and local marketing platform for automotive businesses — it's built for lead generation and appointment booking, not for running a fitment-guaranteed tire and wheel storefront with live supplier inventory.
Can I use RepairPal and Fitzy together?
Yes. Many shops keep RepairPal for service marketing and embed the Fitzy widget specifically for tire and wheel sales, so customers can shop by vehicle without leaving the site.
What does Fitzy add that RepairPal doesn't cover?
A tire and wheel-specific fitment engine, live inventory from 75+ suppliers, guaranteed-fit checkout, and managed fulfillment — the ecommerce layer for selling wheels and tires, not just a marketing presence.
Do I still need RepairPal if I sign up for Fitzy?
If you need broader service marketing, appointment scheduling, or reputation management beyond tire and wheel sales, RepairPal can still be useful. Fitzy focuses specifically on the tire and wheel ecommerce layer.
