After the succesful opening of the first Merchant’s Tire (or MT) retail store in Manassas, a second store was established in Centreville. The company grew by 1972 to twelve stores. In the years to come, MT continued its expansion, concentrating on the East Coast of America. Stores were built in York, Pennsylvania; Myrtle Beach, South Carolina; Baltimore, Maryland; and the Northern Virginia/Metro D.C. area.
In addition to tires, Mavis Tire sells, provides and fits shock absorbers, struts, brakes, wheel alignments, and even oil changes. It also offers many services for free, as well as a number of great guarantees.
