SimpleTire Recognized by Newsweek as one of America’s Best Online Shops of 2025 for the third year in a row—Top 10 in the Car, Motorcycle & Boat category for the second consecutive year.
“To earn placement on Newsweek’s Best Online Shops list for three years running is a huge honor,” said Rich Zapf, SVP of Product Experience at SimpleTire. “This recognition reinforces our mission to make tire replacement ‘way simple, way better’ and reflects the dedication of our team to serve customers with innovation, ease, and excellence.”
The prestigious 2025 ranking, presented by Newsweek in partnership with world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider Statista, evaluated more than 9,500 online retailers in the U.S. across 46 objective and subjective criteria. The multi-phase methodology included rigorous testing and a survey of over 3,000 American online shoppers, scoring retailers across eight core dimensions: Trust & Security, Purchase & Delivery, Structure & Usability, Service & Communication, Technical Details, Payment, Likelihood of Purchase, and Traffic Growth. SimpleTire is proud to be one of the 500 online shops across 8 sectors and 25 categories recognized on the list and to remain amongst the top ten retailers in its category.
“At SimpleTire, we’ve built a technology ecosystem that empowers customers to make confident tire-buying decisions with ease,” said Chris Vitale, SVP of Technology at SimpleTire. “Being recognized by Newsweek for the third year in a row is a direct reflection of our team’s success in using innovation to simplify complexity and continuously improve digital experience.”
SimpleTire’s inclusion for a third year and continued placement in the top tier of its category underscore its leadership in e-commerce excellence within the tire industry. The company attributes its sustained success to its unique business model, which connects independent tire distributors and 25,000 installation partners nationwide, and its ongoing investment in understanding the customer experience, continuously innovating its platform, and sharing unbiased insights and tire safety expertise.
As part of Spring Car Care Month this April, SimpleTire continues its commitment to tire safety education, encouraging drivers to stay proactive with seasonal tire safety. Here are a few key tips:
- Check tire pressure monthly and before road trips—temperature changes can cause fluctuations.
- Inspect tread depth using the penny or quarter test—a quarter is better for gauging grip in wet conditions.
- Rotate your tires every 5,000–8,000 miles to promote even wear.
- Look for signs of aging like cracks, bulges, or dry rot—tires over 6 years old should be inspected.
- Check alignment if you notice uneven wear or if your vehicle pulls to one side.
- Swap out winter tires for all-season or summer tires to ensure optimal performance in warmer weather.
These simple checks can make a big difference in staying safe behind the wheel as the seasons change.
