Love’s Travel Stops has finalized its acquisition of Speedco from Bridgestone Americas, which will expand the Love’s Truck Tire Care service network with 52 new locations.

The terms of the deal were not disclosed. With the 52 new locations, the number of Love’s-operated tire service and lube facilities grows to more than 320.

Speedco facilities will continue to offer their current selection of products and services, including diesel oil changes, federal inspections and battery work. In the coming months, Speedco locations will also offer the same tire brands and services available at Love’s Truck Tire Care locations.

“The partnership of Love’s and Speedco combines two top brands in the diesel service industry into one network,” said Tom Love, founder and executive chairman for Love’s Travel Stops & Country Stores. “Love’s and Speedco are committed to providing professional drivers with quality products as efficiently and quickly as possible. As a leader in the oil change industry, Speedco brings an important service to our Customers. We look forward to serving drivers at Speedco locations and growing the business.”
