Who is RNR Tire Express?
RNR Tire Express is a leading retailer and installer of quality tires, custom wheels, and related services. With 20+ years of experience and nearly 200 locations across the country, RNR Tire Express has the proof of concept, profitability, scalability, sustainability, and barriers to entry smart franchise investors look for, yet RNR Tire Express still has many prime markets available for multi-unit development.
Utilizing unique lease-purchase payment options, we cater to a vast market of customers who don’t have the credit or cash to pay for replacement tires and custom wheels. Among the 118,825,921 households in the U.S., 25% are unbanked or underbanked. An unexpected expense of $400 can force as many as a third of U.S. adults into a difficult financial situation. Since over 85% of our customers choose the lease-purchase option, RNR Tire Express does not compete with other tire retailers or discount chains who do not offer customers the same option.
Our unique lease-purchase payment model directly serves a traditionally underserved consumer niche of middle-income, blue-collar or early-career, white-collar Americans, who are affluent enough to own a car, but may not have the credit or cash available to purchase tires and wheels outright.
With nearly 200 locations, we rank among the largest retail tire chains in the United States. Additionally, in 2021 and 2022 we were ranked #1 in the Tire & Wheel Category by Entrepreneur.
RNR Tire Express has 10 key attributes which make us unique, profitable, sustainable, and scalable as a franchise investment opportunity.
