Images Tab
When Tire Quote searches online suppliers, it checks to see if the matching tires contain an image link (URL) to an image. If the tire does contain a link to an image, that link returns with the search results.
When you highlight a tire that has a link to an image, the Image tab appears in the right column.
If there is more than one image, a counter and navigation arrows appear below the tire image.
“Image Note Available” Image
Sometimes the Images tab displays a message that the image is not available.
This can happen for any one of the following reasons:
- There is a link to the image, but the link is bad.
- There is a link, but no image there.
- There is a link and an image, but the image is not loading fast enough on the screen. For example,
- You are scrolling too quickly through the search results with the Image tab selected.
- Your connection is very slow because of the volume of data moving through the network.
In this case, wait for a few seconds; either the tire image or the “No Image” image will appear.
NOTE: The image comes from the tire supplier, not R.O. Writer. If the image is not accurate or problematic, please contact the supplier.
Available Tab
If the supplier included alternate locations for the tire,
- The Alt column displays the number of tires available from all alternate locations. (This number excludes the quantity in the Avail column.)
-
The Available tab appears in the right column when the tire is selected.
On the Available tab,
- The Local Inventory entry is the quantity in your local inventory. This quantity matches the quantity in the OH column.
- The other entries and quantities depend on the results returned from the supplier.
