Best-One Tire & Service
Best-One Tire & Service was founded in 1948 when Paul Zurcher went into business in Monroe, IN with a $300 loan funded through the GI Bill. Over the past 70 years, what started out as a single bay service station, has grown into over 250 locations in 26 states. Paul made a successful business model by simply investing in others. Throughout the years, the Zurcher Family has continued to invest in dreams by forming partnerships with hundreds of entrepreneurs—each sharing a passion for the tire and service industry. Though Paul passed away in 2015, the family’s involvement remains strong with three generations of the Zurcher Family. Along with our Executive Leadership Team and our Best-One Partners we all remain committed to “Creating Raving Fans”, and growing the Best-One influence in the retread, commercial, OTR, and consumer tire divisions. The heart of Best-One could best be defined by Paul’s passion and love for people, along with creating opportunities for entrepreneurial success and growth. Corporately, we remain committed to honoring Paul’s core values, building strong relationships with our partners and suppliers, and creating new opportunities for those who join our Best-One family. As the excitement for the brand continues to grow, we are fortunate to work alongside our Best-One partners each day, striving to Create Raving Fans out of every customer and team member our locations reach. Best-One remains committed to the legacy of love, learning, and entrepreneurial success that distinguishes our group from others in the industry.
