WESTLAKE, OH – TravelCenters of America, which operates TA and Petro Stopping Centers travel centers, has formed the TA Truck Service Commercial Tire Network – creating what it says is the largest independent commercial tire dealer in the U.S.

The TA Truck Service network includes 243 service facilities, 1,079 repair bays, 3,000 technicians and more than 1,600 emergency roadside assistance vehicles. Based in Westlake, Ohio, it has a presence in 43 states and Canada.

“We have significantly expanded the ways in which we may sell tires and the tires that we may sell to our customers,” said Tom O’Brien, TravelCenters president and CEO. “In addition to our traditional retail and ‘national account’ offering, we have already added tire brands including Cooper Tire Roadmaster, Goodyear Marathon and Kell®, and expect to add others soon, including BF Goodrich, Pirelli and Formula by Pirelli.”

Brands available through the company’s mobile maintenance services have also been expanded.

“We believe that the TA Truck Service Commercial Tire Network is the largest independent commercial tire dealer in the United States,” he added.
