The company was created in July 1992 as HiQ Tyreservices by Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company.[1]
It was the main sponsor of the British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) in 2008, 2009 and 2014. It supplies the tyres exclusively for the British police.[citation needed]
The companies' outlets were improved in 2008.

It has around 100 service centres across the UK.[2][3] The company headquarters are at Trident Court on the 148-acre Birmingham Business Park,[4] around a half-mile south-west of junction 4 of the M6, accessed from the A452. This is also the headquarters of Dunlop Tyres UK, which moved to the site in May 2017.
