Company Description

Founded in 1996, Rent A Wheel/Rent A Tire started with one store in California. Since its modest beginning, the company has become the largest rent-to-own custom wheel and tire retailer in the nation with over 136 locations across 17 states. The company is also the 7th largest independently owned tire dealer in the country.

Rent A Wheel/Rent A Tire was founded on the principle of providing the highest quality product and service at the lowest price. We combined this mission with the offer of our 90 Days Same As Cash and rent-to-own flexible buying options. Many customers buy our products and services at retail to take advantage of our low prices using our 90 Days Same As Cash program to pay over 90 days. However, many customers like the flexibility of our 12-month, rent-to-own program. This “no obligation to buy” agreement gives customers the opportunity to try the wheels and tires and return them for any reason, where customers can pay off any time before the 12 month period and receive 50% off the remaining agreement value. Your wheels, your way!
