The History of The Tire Mart

Founded in 1965, The Tire Mart is located at 43 Degrange St. in Frederick, MD as an automotive repair, tire, and wheel center. We have spent over 50 years delivering auto repairs, tires, and wheels to satisfied customers. You can come see us in person, or schedule an appointment online today from the comfort of your couch.

Our Story:  The Tire Mart has a longstanding history in the Frederick, MD area. In 1965, Ken Martin bought a small church and turned it into a tire shop. Ken used to recap tires inside the old church and change tires in the driveway before building the main shop in 1974. In 1978, a tire technician, Mitch, began working for Ken. Mitch met Ken's daughter, Karen, and in 2001, Mitch and Karen Nikirk bought the shop from Ken.

Today, Tire Mart is owned by Ben and Justine Lucas, who are committed to delivering the personalized customer service, tire selection, and high-qualty workmanship that customers have come to expect. We invite you to visit us the next time your vehicle needs tires or an automotive service.

Once primarily a farm tire dealer in Frederick County, The Tire Mart has evolved with the community. As the community grew and farming decreased, we branched into mechanical services. The Tire Mart operates out of six bays.

Our shop is tucked away on a small street off the beaten path. That helps us understand the importance of building relationships with our customers. We realize you have a lot of choices to buy tires and have your car serviced, so we go out of our way to make your visit a pleasant experience.

At The Tire Mart, you can expect:

• Competitive prices on tire brands like MICHELIN®, Uniroyal®, and Mastercraft
• Tire services including tire installations, tire rotations, balancing, and TPMS adjustments
• Farm tires
