Image URL query parameters may be combined with f-colorId in order to specify a desired color.

 

Example. Vehicle ID 5851 in color ID 130664 (“Velocity Blue”):

Response:

If f-colorId is not specified, the default color of a vehicle will be selected.

E. Available colors

To include a list of available colors for each vehicle, append i-colors parameter with no value.

 

Example. A vehicle with a list of its colors:

Response:

Appending Swatch to SwatchUrlBase composes a complete color swatch URL, e.g.:

Each object under Colors includes Img001, Img014, and Img032 properties. They signify whether a vehicle image is available for a given angle and in the color.

F. Fitment Data

Appending i-fitments and i-optionalFitments to the URL includes OE and OE optional fitments. i-fitments also adds the following fields:

  • BoltCircle

  • Bore

  • BoreRearnull if the same as Bore

  • DefaultChassisId - if multiple chassis are mapped to the vehicle, this value will represent the closest match

  • LoadRating - minimum tire load rating

  • LoadRatingRear - null if the same as LoadRating

  • LugCount

  • MaxWheelLoad - maximum weight the vehicle would exert on each wheel while in operation

  • Staggered - the vehicle is commonly fitted with staggered wheels and tires

i-tags includes tags, and niche tags.

Niche tags identify wheels (and their corresponding vehicles) that are made for specific vehicles only. They are used primarily for replica wheels made for specific vehicles.

Each OE fitment is compatible with the vehicle without a need for vehicle modifications (e.g. lift kits).

In addition to OE fitments, plus sizes may be requested with i-plusSizes parameter. Plus sizes will only be returned if fitments are requested. Plus sizes are intended for the tuning market. They can be used to show the aftermarket wheel fitment sizes, and tire sizes for that wheel size. Plus size notes provide information on special requirements.

Note. Plus sizes must be matched with fitments by ChassisId.

Each fitment is identified by Id, has ChassisId, and is often described by Name to differentiate it from other options. Typically, a vehicle would have a few fitments sharing the same chassis and multiple plus size for each chassis. Some vehicles may have fitments coming from chassis. This is because sub model alone doesn’t uniquely identify vehicle chassis. For example, vehicle ID 83184 has two chassis:

  • "ChassisId": 70429, "Name": "19\"" - 2 fitments, 14 plus sizes

  • "ChassisId": 92428, "Name": "Ceramic Brake Package" - 1 fitment, 9 plus sizes

Depending on which OE fitment is selected by the end user, either the 14 or the 9 plus sizes may be offered with additional wheel/tire sizes.

 

Example. A vehicle with OE fitments and plus sizes:

Response:

Format identifies tire format:

  • M - metric, e.g. “245/70R17”; SectionWidth, AspectRatio, and RimDiameter will be specified

  • F - flotation, e.g. “37x12.50R17”; Diameter, RimWidth, and RimDiameter will be specified.

Notes will take a form of an empty array if there are no special requirements for the fitment. Otherwise, a list of strings will be returned, for example:

Staggered indicates whether a vehicle is commonly fitted with staggered wheels (is a staggered fitment candidate). For example 2022 Chevrolet Camaro LS does not come with factory staggered wheels, but is often upgraded to staggered fitment.

G. Wheel coordinates

To include wheel coordinates append i-coordinates=<agnles> to the URL where <angles> is a comma-separated list of one or more of the following values:

  • 001 - side angle

  • 014 - rear angle

  • 032 - front angle

 

Example. A vehicle with coordinates for angles 014 and 032:

Response:

Wheel coordinates include two sets of four values in the following order:

  1. x1 - top left corner’s x value

  2. y1 - top left corner’s y value

  3. x2 - bottom right corner’s x value

  4. y2 - bottom right corner’s y value

Each value is expressed in percents, counting vehicle image’s top-left corner as the starting point.

Overlayed front and rear wheel images match original rims best when slightly rotated. Each set of coordinates (for each vehicle angle) will have a corresponding set of rotation values (in degrees):

In the example above, the left wheel should be rotated by -10 deg (counterclockwise) and the right wheel should be rotated by 10 deg (clockwise) for vehicle angle 001.

Wheel angles specify preferred wheel angles for each vehicle angle and each wheel. For example:

indicates that the vehicle, when shown in angle 032, should have wheel angle 0100 layered on top of the first (counting from left to right) wheel and angle 0200 over the second wheel (on the right).

Exceptions:

  1. Dually trucks, being an exception, and will return 0300Front and 0300Rear wheel angles for 001 vehicle angle (instead of 0300 for non-dually vehicles):

  1. Some vehicles my have externally-mounted full size spare wheels. In their case, an additional set of coordinates and associated data will be returned for angle 014 at the end of each array (3rd place):

 

InImageWheelDiameters is a list of wheel diameters corresponding with vehicle images:

  • Front - front wheel diameter as visible in the vehicle image

  • FrontMax - maximum front wheel diameter visually fitting the vehicle image

  • Rear - rear wheel diameter as visible in the vehicle image

  • RearMax - maximum rear wheel diameter visually fitting the vehicle image

Wheel coordinates are set for Front and FrontMax diameters and need to be proportionally scaled up for diameters between Front and FrontMax, and between Rear and RearMax.

If information for InImageWheelDiameters is not available, a null value will be returned:

H. Sample Positioning Implementation

and the following data returned from /wheels endpoint:

we can overlay the wheels on top of the vehicles with the following HTML and CSS code:

Live CodePen example:

https://codepen.io/m-autosync/pen/BapjrqY

GET /vehicles/vehicle/[vehicleId]/accessories

A list of accessories for a requested vehicle.

Required URI parameters:

  • * vehicleId - vehicle ID

Optional query parameters:

  • Data

    • i-imgVov - include accessory VoV images for selected angles together with coordinates and rotation angles; a comma-separated list of one or more of the following values:001, 014, 032

    • i-vehicleImg - include vehicle images for selected angles; a comma-separated list of one or more of the following values:001, 014, 032

    • i-commonMinScale - some accessories may require different vehicle scales to fit them on top of vehicle images; the scales may differ not only between vehicles but also vehicle angles (for example a hitch bike rack may require a smaller scale for angle 001); this parameter includes at least one scale that is the same for all vehicle angles (001, 014, 032) for a given vehicle and accessory; it takes effect only if i-imgVov is specified

  • Filters

    • f-vehicleColorId - specify vehicle color by ID; takes precedence over f-vehicleColor

    • f-vehicleColor - specify vehicle image color: rand – random color (default), mono – prefer monochromatic color; f-vehicleColorId parameter takes precedence if both are specified

 

Example 1. List accessories with their coordinates and images for all angles for vehicle ID 38050 (2021 Ford F-150 XL Extended Cab):

Response:

Base Accessories

Accessories can depend on other accessories to be properly visualized. For example a cargo box may require a roof rack. BaseAccessoryIds provide a list of IDs of alternative accessories required by the main accessory. Any one from the list may be selected.

The image above shows an accessory (green rectangle) with its dependent accessory (orange rectangle).

Coordinates

Visualizing accessories may require scaling down vehicle images. For each angle (001, 014 or 032), there may be a set of different vehicle scales. The biggest, is the maximum scale for which the accessory stays within the canvas of the requested vehicle image. Smaller scales are provided to match other accessories that require smaller scales.

In the example above, the accessory requires scaling the vehicle image down to 90% or less. 0.8 coordinates are provided because another accessory returned in the response requires 80% scale. When two accessories are overlaid on a vehicle, the highest common scale should be used.

The values are adjusted for each scale.

Coordinates are provided in four-element arrays: x1, y1, x2, y2:

Top left corner of a vehicle image is the (0,0) point.

In some cases, vehicle scales may be different for different vehicle angles. For example Yakima - Hitch Mounted Snow Sport requires a smaller scale on angle 001.

However, if it’s desired to preserve vehicle scale between different angles, i-commonMinScale parameter may be added which will ensure at least one common scale will be included between vehicle angles.

A common scale between different accessories is always included.

Images

Two accessory images are returned for each angle:

Any of them can be null. The first image (back) is meant to be placed behind a vehicle image and the second (front) on top of it.

When positioning images, their coordinates should be applied to both images in the same way.

In addition to coordinates, accessory images may require rotation. Same as for coordinates, rotation should be applied the same way for both images (back and front). Rotation requirements are provided by Rotation001, Rotation014 or Rotation032.
