JACKSONVILLE, FL / ACCESS Newswire / April 2, 2026 / In a marketplace where trust defines success, Priority Tire has earned its place among some of the best tire shops. This online tire retailer earned a spot on America’s Best Stores 2026, USA TODAY’s annual ranking of the most trusted retailers in the country, compiled in partnership with Plan-A Insights Group.
The partnership utilized a proprietary scoring model to analyze over 7,500 retailers based on a large-scale confidential survey of over 24,000 U.S. shoppers, while also taking into consideration online reviews and publicly available data. The ranking prioritizes the quality of customer experience across e-commerce and physical storefronts rather than the scale or number of locations a retailer operates. The result is the list of the most trustworthy stores for 2026. Among top-ranking businesses, Priority Tire has earned its place as an industry leader in the “Automobile and Parts Stores” section of the “Hardware, Electronics, and Automobile” category.
The list of America’s Best Stores 2026 features in-store and online companies. Some of them have increased their star ratings from the previous year, like Priority Tire, which climbed from 4.5 to 5 stars.
“You don’t build trust overnight in this industry,” said Dimitri Chernyak, President of Priority Tire. “We’ve spent years earning our place in America’s garages, and we’re just getting started. Being named one of America’s Best Stores for the second year is confirmation that we are on the right path.”
Research from PwC found that 65% of consumers consider a positive brand experience more impactful than advertising, a shift that has redefined how successful retailers operate. Nielsen’s data reinforces this trend, showing that word-of-mouth and customer satisfaction remain among the most powerful drivers of brand loyalty. That reality is reflected in this year’s rankings, where companies that prioritize quality and service consistently earn the trust that leads to repeat business and recognition.
