CINCINNATI (May 18th, 2026) – Tire Discounters continued its steady growth across Greater Cincinnati with the opening of a new location at 765 Ohio Pike in Withamsville on Saturday, May 16. The expansion reflects sustained customer demand along one of the region’s busiest retail corridors.
The new store occupies a former Tires Plus location, reinforcing a broader industry trend of shifting footprints in automotive retail. While some national brands have closed or consolidated locations, Tire Discounters is expanding into those spaces and increasing service capacity for local drivers.
"We're seeing consistent demand along Ohio Pike," said Evan Wood, Vice President of Operations. "Adding this location allows us to better support drivers in Withamsville, Cherry Grove, Amelia, and the surrounding areas while improving scheduling flexibility and reducing wait times."
This marks the company’s third location along Ohio Pike, expanding coverage in a corridor experiencing continued residential and commercial growth. The added capacity increases appointment availability and provides more same-day service options, making it easier for local drivers to get in and out. The move reflects Tire Discounters’ continued investment in the communities it serves.
The Withamsville store will offer the company’s full suite of tire, automotive repair and maintenance services.
