Kenwood Road Tire Discounters

CINCINNATI (June 26, 2025) – Tire Discounters, the nation’s largest 100% family-owned and operated tire and service provider, is proud to announce the reopening of its newly rebuilt and expanded store at 7369 Kenwood Road, Cincinnati, OH 45236. Located on one of Cincinnati’s busiest roads, the new facility delivers a significantly improved customer experience—including easier access, more service bays, and a larger inventory of tires.

Tire Discounters invested in the Kenwood community by purchasing the former Graeter’s space, allowing for a major layout expansion and the customer experience our community deserves. Customers will notice more room to park, a streamlined and accessible interior, and lighted access from American Way, making it much easier to enter and exit the location. The added square footage means more service capacity, more in-stock tires and faster turnaround for customers in the Kenwood area and beyond.

“This project has been personal for our family,” said Evan Wood, VP of Operations at Tire Discounters. “The previous layout and customer experience wasn’t what we wanted for our Kenwood, Indian Hill, Montgomery and Madeira customers. That was frustrating for all of us. This new store is the customer-focused space we always envisioned, and we’re grateful to our loyal customers for their patience as we worked to get it right.” 

The Kenwood store will be led by one of Tire Discounters' most outstanding leaders, General Manager Tom Litteral. With more than 10 years of experience managing high-traffic locations across Cincinnati, Tom brings expertise in both automotive service and delivering an exceptional customer experience. He and his team are excited to welcome back loyal customers and meet new ones at the upgraded Kenwood location.

Customers will continue to receive the service Tire Discounters is known for, including free alignment with every tire purchase, full-service automotive care, and ASE-certified technicians trained to keep vehicles safe and running at peak performance.

Tire Discounters will further its commitment to the community with the third annual Tire Discounters Festival on July 18 and 19 in nearby Bechtold Park in Sycamore Twp. The event is headlined by Mark Farner's American Band, led by Grand Funk Railroad's lead singer, guitarist and writer, Mark Farner.

The speed rating of a tire is based on U.S. Government standards for reaching and sustaining a specified speed. Typically, a tire with a higher speed rating results in better handling. Speed ratings apply only to the tire itself, and not to a particular vehicle. Putting a tire rated for a certain speed on a vehicle does not mean that the vehicle can be safely operated at the tire's rated speed.

Tire Load Range refers to the maximum weight a tire can safely support at a specified tire pressure. For Light Trucks and SUVs, ranges are usually expressed using SL (Standard Load) and XL (Extra Load or Reinforced). It can also be represented by letters (e.g., C, D, E), which indicate the tire's ply rating, which traditionally referred to the number of layers of material within the tire.

A higher load range indicates a tire designed to carry heavier loads. For example, a tire with a Load Range E can support more weight than one with a Load Range C. The correct load range is critical for vehicle safety and performance, especially for trucks, trailers, and commercial vehicles.

Tread depth is the distance between the top of the tread rubber to the bottom of the tire's deepest grooves.  In the United States, tread depth is measured in 32nds of an inch.

A tire’s maximum load is the maximum amount of weight the tire is designed to hold. The tire’s load carrying capacity is directly related to the tire’s size and amount of inflation pressure that is actually used. Each load range has a assigned air pressure identified in pounds per square inch (psi) at which the tire's maximum load is rated.

A tire’s maximum inflation pressure (PSI) is the highest "cold" inflation pressure that the tire is designed to contain. When measuring a tire’s max PSI, it is important the tire is "cold," because warmer temperatures can cause the tire pressure to temporarily increase resulting with inaccurate readings. This measurement should only be used when called for on the vehicle’s tire placard or in the vehicle’s owners manual.

The mileage warranty of a tire indicates the number of miles that a tire is estimated to last. If a tire fails to last for the number of miles indicated by the warranty, the customer will be given credit from the tire manufacturer toward a new tire based on how many miles short of the estimate the tire fell. Some restrictions apply. 

The total width of the tire, including any raised features on the sidewall. 

This is how many layers of rubber and other materials are in the tire.  

The represents the smallest and widest size wheels that are recommended by the tire manufacturer for the tire to be mounted on. 

 

 

The measurement, in inches, from rim flange to the other rim flange. 

The maximum width of a wheel that a tire can be put onto. 

The minimum width of a wheel that a tire can be put onto.  

A tire's section width (also called "cross section width") is the measurement of the tire's width from its inner sidewall to its outer sidewall (excluding any protective ribs, decorations or raised letters) at the widest point. 

What makes up a tire; each ply, the sidewall, the tread, and bead.  

This number will tell you how well the tire will disperse heat buildup. 

This is how much weight a tire is rated to hold.
