I'm starting up a tire retail shop in the near future and looking for great tire wholesalers.

I already have tirerackwholesale and direct performance, but would like to expand my list.

Anywhere in the USA is fine.

Thanks guys!

why dont you just ask the tire manufacturers yourself.

Direct contact with the actual manufacturer is best, they will most likely give you the best prices because it's coming directly from them, of course you would have to be buying in major bulk and quantity in order to achieve super cheap wholesale prices, but that's an investment you're gonna have to be willing to make. Just hope that you sell majority of your inventory. Starting up a tire business is not going to be easy with so many companies selling tires in the market already. Just my $0.02

Manufacturers especially tire man. will not deal direct unless you buy mass quantities there are many wholesalers local and they are your best deal
there is Turbo wholesale in Irwindale savas tire in bell and Interstate tire in San Bernardino to name a few each one has a specific set of brands that they deal with
tell me what area your going to open your shop in and I will help you get set up with the companies you need to
I am a wheel manufacturer and do a lot of tires and would be glad to help you out

I'm actually opening this business in Canada, but I go across the boarder to pick up from my US suppliers.

US tire suppliers seem to have killer prices compared to what we have there, so any big names other than the 2 I posted would be a great help.

I know tirerackwholesale and directperformance don't give any deals even if you buy in large quantities. I'm looking for a supplier that will. Buy a few hundred pieces every few months is what I'm considering to do if I can get a good discount.
