Discount Tire Company is an American tire and wheel retailer.
The company was founded in 1960 when Bruce T. Halle rented a building on Stadium Boulevard in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Today, its corporate headquarters are located in Scottsdale, Arizona.
The company's outlets are branded America's Tire Company in Oregon, Washington, and California (except for San Diego County). The company's television ads still feature a ten-second clip first filmed and used in 1975,[1] in which a "little old lady" tosses a tire through a storefront window.
