PTBOSpotlight: Peterborough Used Tires
/Welcome to PTBOSpotlight! Every Friday, this segment showcases a business or organization in Peterborough and the Kawarthas. You will have the opportunity to learn more about the people behind the organization and the work they do for our community.
This week, we are featuring Peterborough Used Tires.
Established in 2003, Peterborough Used Tires had exclusively sold and serviced quality used tires. In 2005, at the customers' request, the business began carrying and selling new tires.
“We do everything tires. We sell used and new tires and rims of all brands and sizes for automotive needs. We also repair, balance and install tires and new this year we provide seasonal storage,” said Chris of Peterborough Used Tires. “We carry the Kawartha's largest inventory of quality used tires with a Lifetime Warranty included as long as you own your car. We also partner with the leading distributors in Ontario to provide all brands and models of new tires which can be ordered for same or next day delivery.
In 2012, Peterborough relocated to a 10,000 sq/ft. facility at 810 Rye St.
“We returned to what we do best: providing the best and biggest variety of tires to customers and repairing tires, we no longer do general auto repairs and have put all of our focus on tires,” said Chris. “We also added custom wheels and accessories to our lineup. Fast forward to now, we’ve come a long way in the 20 years we’ve served Peterborough and the surrounding area, and we only have our customers to thank.”
In 2025, Peterborough Used Tires was acquired with several enhancements made.
“We created a new brand logo and gave the entire store a facelift. We have upgraded all of our technology, inventory databases, scheduling and pricing tools,” said Chris. “We also expanded our services to include seasonal storage of tires as well as a Lifetime Road Hazard Warranty included with every purchase.”
