Plaza Tire Service Opens 18th Illinois Location in Jacksonville

The new Jacksonville store provides a full suite of automotive support, ranging from tire sales and balancing to alignments and flat repairs. By positioning the shop along West Morton Avenue, a key commercial corridor, the company aims to capture both local residents and regional commuters passing through the area.

Rob Kingery, Regional Vice President of Operations for Sun Auto Tire & Service, described the expansion as a strategic investment in the regional market. Beyond standard mechanical work, the location integrates the company’s digital service model, which includes 24/7 online appointment scheduling and digital vehicle inspections. This infrastructure is part of a broader push by the Sun Auto Network, which now operates over 575 centers nationwide, to standardize customer service protocols across its growing footprint.
