This is the "Rims" Downloadable Content (DLC) for Car Mechanic Simulator 2018, released in 2019. As an add-on, it requires the base game and introduces no new story or core mechanics.

This specific content pack is available on PC (Microsoft Windows) and Mac platforms, aligning with the availability of the core simulation game.
