About Gallagher Tire Inc.
From a two-bay garage in Bristol, Pennsylvania to one of the leading specialty tire wholesalers in the United States.
Our Story
Our story began in 1968 when the Gallagher family transformed a two-bay garage into a retail tire store in Bristol, Pennsylvania. Initially serving the local community with high-quality passenger tires, this marked the start of our journey to growth and innovation.
With our focus on customer service and strategic vision, we gradually evolved into specialty tire wholesaling by the early 1980s. This transition greatly expanded our customer base and operational scope and remains central to our business model today.

Leadership
Gallagher Tire Inc. reached an impressive milestone in 2018 with 50 successful years in operation. This achievement inspires gratitude and renews the energy that propelled us from a simple retail tire outlet into one of the leading specialty tire wholesalers in the US.
Today, we manage two strategically situated warehouses in Southeastern Pennsylvania and Upstate New York, serving clients across the East Coast and Midwest. This expansion was led by J.P. Gallagher, who assumed leadership in 2003 when his father semi-retired. His guidance has seen us adapt and flourish within a dynamic industry.
Drawing on his vast experience at the helm of a family business, J.P. Gallagher advises those contemplating similar ventures: observing current management practices is important, but being ready to implement necessary changes for future success is essential.
Looking Ahead
We at Gallagher Tire are committed to offering a broad range of products while maintaining competitive prices. To boost our online presence, we launched Tires4That.com in 2017: an online consumer tire sales website highlighting our dedication to using technology for enhanced customer service.
Here at Gallagher Tire Inc., we value where we come from, take pride in where we are now and look forward to what lies ahead. We anticipate many more years of providing top-quality products with excellent customer service.
