The Tire Industry Association (TIA) announced the election of four members to its board of directors for the 2024-2027 term and the appointment of one member to fill a vacant spot for the 2024-2025 term.  

Joining the board for the three-year term are Gary Schroeder of Bob Sumerel Tire Co., John Sparks of Spark Commercial Tire Inc., Sarah Mason of Fountain Tire and Chris Rhoades of BKT USA Inc.  

Jeff Campbell of Tire Discounters will serve a one-year term to fill the vacancy created by Gary MacCausland’s move to the position of secretary.

“Their diverse expertise and perspectives will be invaluable as we continue to advance our mission of promoting tire safety, technician training and industry advocacy. We look forward to their contributions and leadership.” 

The new directors will take office on Nov. 4, 2024, during TIA’s Annual Membership Meeting before the start of the SEMA Show.
