About JAM Best One

In 2003, Coach Jim Jones and Mark Krebs saw a need in the region for a full-service medium truck provider, and together they created JAM Best One Fleet Service. Their vision quickly turned JAM into a leading name in fleet solutions across Ohio and Michigan.

Fast forward 19 years, and Coach, along with his talented team, noticed another gap in the market—specialty tires for industrial equipment. To meet this need, JAM Best One Fleet Service expanded by acquiring Forklift Tire, Inc. in 2022, and introduced the JAM Best One Industrial Division. The acquisition included tire brands, Nextire for forklifts and Clawdaddy for skid steer equipment.

Then in early 2024, after the sale of the region’s leading automotive and light truck tire dealer, Coach and his partners saw a new opportunity in the Toledo area. That’s how JAM Best One Tire & Auto Care was born, starting with two locations to serve the community with top-quality service for all drivers—family, friends, current, and new customers.

Later in 2024, another exciting milestone occurred when Tiremaxx, a well-known specialty and OTR tire dealer in Ohio, Michigan, and Indiana, merged with JAM Best One Fleet Service. Now operating under the name JAM Best One Tiremaxx, the industrial division is the largest specialty tire dealer in the region, with JAM proudly employing over 200 people throughout Ohio, Michigan, and Indiana.
