New Website Lets Consumers Shop for Tires Online and Still Buy Local

Tireteam.com marries online benefits with trusted customer service

ALLIANCE, Ohio, Oct. 22, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Terry's Tire Town announces a new website that allows consumers across the Midwest and Eastern United States to enjoy the benefits of online shopping and the customer service of trusted local tire dealers.

The new website at http://www.tireteam.com draws on advanced technology to allow consumers to price multiple brands online while placing an order for next-day installation at a participating local dealer.

The website responds to trends showing that tire shoppers rely on the Internet to decide what to buy, while still making purchases in brick-and-mortar stores.  The advantage of the tireteam.com website is that it directs consumers to trusted dealers once they have made informed decisions online.

"In addition to convenience and an ability to shop features and prices online, customers tap into a network of independent tire dealers who are trained, certified and recognized by the manufacturers," said Terry's Tire Town CEO Will Tolerton.

"We believe that gives the Internet shopper the best possible tire buying experience.  Our network of independent tire dealers is the real strength behind the program."

More than 300 dealers are already participating in the tireteam.com network, and that number is expected to grow rapidly.

The tireteam.com website offers tires in all major brands, including Michelin, Bridgestone, Goodyear, Continental, Yokohama, Mastercraft, and Kumho.  More importantly, tireteam.com features the authorized dealers associated with these brands. 

Terry's Tire Town developed the tireteam.com website in partnership with Cookeville, Tenn.-based Tire Company Solutions (TCS).  Specializing in software applications, TCS also supplies Terry's Tire Town with web-based point-of-sales tracking systems, inventory control and other business services. 

For dealers, the tireteam.com website and related web-based services allow for the integration of essential technologies necessary for high efficiency. 

By taking advantage of the full suite of services, dealers can manage inventory, sales, business transactions and e-commerce from a single online platform. 

"Through seamless integration, a dealer's website and tireteam.com can work together to get tires off racks and installed on cars,'' said Tolerton.  "A dealer's inventory combines with our inventory in a comprehensive ordering portal that is open 24/7."

Terry's Tire Town, based in Alliance, Ohio, stocks more than 1 million tires on an average day in all sizes and brands in 11 state-of-the-art warehouses across the Eastern and Midwestern United States.  The company also administers American Car Care Centers (ACCC) and Eco Express programs in 12 states.
