Background Information

Overview

Discount Tire first opened its doors in 1960, when Bruce T. Halle rented an old plumbing supply building on Stadium Boulevard in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Bruce cleaned out the building, built countertops, repainted the sign outside, and displayed his initial six-tire inventory. As the store's only employee upon its opening, Bruce served as the tire technician, cleaning crew, salesman, and accountant. Because he didn't have an air compressor, Bruce would even haul a portable air tank to and from a nearby gas station so that he could inflate the tires he sold.
