The .tir file and the .rdf file are needed to use the GTire. These files are used to the STI (Standard Tire Tnterface) format and the TNO Tire and COSIN FTire also use the format. So, the user should add the VENDER_TIRE_TYPE parameter to the .tir file of GTire for dividing the provider of the tire model and the model type. This parameter must exist in the [MODEL] category of the .tir file.
