Black's Tire Service press release
MOORESVILLE, N.C. (May 19, 2025) – TRICON Garage (TRICON) will once again join forces with longtime partner Black’s Tire Service (BTS) for the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series (NCTS) race at Charlotte Motor Speedway. BTS will serve as the primary sponsor for Tanner Gray and the No. 15 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro and will be highlighting its charitable partner, the Boys and Girls Homes of North Carolina as part of the effort.
Black's Tire, which celebrated its 95th anniversary in 2024, has more than 70 locations in both North and South Carolina remaining a local, family owned and operated tire seller and wholesaler. Most recently, BTS was featured on the No. 15 for the Black’s Tire 200 at Rockingham Speedway in April.
Headquartered in Lake Waccamaw, NC, Boys and Girls Homes of North Carolina (BGHNC) has served more than 7,500 children as a nonprofit agency. Its mission is to provide a wide array of services for children and youth who have been removed from their homes due to abuse, neglect or other family challenges. BGHNC offers adoption, family and therapeutic foster care in 26 counties, success coach services to prevent children from coming into foster care, and child and family therapy, as well as Carolyn's Kaleidoscope Child Advocacy Center in Whiteville and residential care on the campus at Lake Waccamaw.
"The founder of Black's Tire, Crowell Black, was on our original board of trustees, Ricky Benton II currently serves on our board of trustees today, and through the years, BTS fundraising has had a huge impact on continuing our programs of care through Boys and Girls Homes," said Marc Murphy, President and CEO, Boys and Girls Homes. "We simply could not serve as many children without the support of BTS."
Black’s Tire will be hosting its annual Boys and Girls Home charity golf tournament on Thursday, September 18. Those interested in supporting the cause and sponsoring a hole or a golf team can reach out to Amy Jenkins at amy.jenkins@blackstire.com.
In addition to highlighting their charitable partnership with BGHNC, BTS Tire & Wheel Distributors will feature 24 of its wholesale partner dealers on the bed of the truck. We are excited to feature some of our loyal, partner dealers on the truck for this big event, said BTS Chairman of the Board, Ricky Benton Sr.
