History
Originally launched as Vic's Cycle Shop in Millwood, New York by Marion and Victor Sorbaro in 1949, the business adopted the Mavis Tire name in 1972.
Throughout the 2000s, Mavis Tire pursued growth through strategic acquisitions. In 2015, the purchase of Somerset Tire Service effectively doubled the company's scale. The subsequent merger in 2018 with Express Oil Change & Tire Engineers resulted in a combined network of 830 outlets spanning 24 states.
In 2021, a consortium led by BayPine LP completed a transaction valued at over $6 billion to acquire Mavis Tire, uniting Mavis Discount Tire and Express Oil Change & Tire Engineers under one brand.
The company's expansion continued in 2022 with the acquisition of Jack Williams Tire & Auto Centers, boosting its retail presence to nearly 1,500 locations nationwide, including 109 stores within Pennsylvania.
Mavis Tire also engaged in motorsport sponsorship by backing NASCAR driver Denny Hamlin and the No. 11 team for five races during the 2023 NASCAR Cup Series, beginning at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.
The acquisition of Midas in 2025 further expanded Mavis Tire’s retail footprint to exceed 3,500 stores across both the United States and Canada.
