About Black’s Tire & Auto Service:
Black’s Tire & Auto Service, was formed in 1929 as Black’s Service Station by W. Crowell Black in Whiteville, NC. With W. Crowell Black at the helm, Black’s Service Station was a vital tire and vehicle service center in Whiteville and southeastern North Carolina. In 1976, Ricky Benton and his wife Dianne opened a gas station/garage in the Cerro Gordo, NC community. Ricky continued to operate this business until 1981, when he began working with Black’s Tire 

Service in Whiteville. Ricky continued working at Black’s Tire, expanding the business into multiple locations (that include 34 retail stores, 3 warehouse/distribution centers, a retread center, BTS Academy – the corporate training center, and corporate headquarters). Later, Benton purchased Black’s Tire from Crowell Black but continued to operate it under the Black’s Tire name out of respect for the Black family. Ricky and Dianne are very involved in the daily operations of the company as are their sons Rick, Ryan, and Jeremy. Today the company operates under the division names Black’s Tire & Auto Service, BTS Commercial, BTS Tire and Wheel Distributors, and Carolina Retread.
