The award is open to all individuals in the tire industry, including manufacturers, inventors, publishers, equipment suppliers, tire association executives, tire dealers, tire and rubber recyclers and retreaders.

  • Service that is exemplary within the tire industry; and
  • Respect of their peers.

Candidates’ civic, cultural, educational or charitable endeavors will be considered but are not a primary consideration as attributes for selection.
