Rad Air Complete Car Care and Tire Centers is Northeast Ohio’s leader in automotive repair and maintenance services—and we are expanding.
Since our founding in 1975 in Parma Heights, Ohio, we’ve built our business on values of integrity and honesty. We believe in smart, sustainable growth. Rad Air has ten locations currently: Half are owner/operator and half are semi-absentee. There are significant opportunities not only in Northeast Ohio but across the Midwest in Kentucky, Ohio, and Michigan. If you dream of opening a franchise business, your best opportunity may be with Rad Air.
At Rad Air, we do what it takes to make our franchisees successful. We provide significant training, hand holding, and support as you get your shop going. We also aren’t afraid of hands-on work: When our Strongsville shop was under construction during one of the wettest springs on record, Andy Fiffick, our founder and CEO, rounded up dehumidifiers so that cement could be poured. If there’s a problem, large or small, you’ll be surrounded by a team of passionate and supportive individuals who are invested in your success and the success of the Rad Air brand.

Bill Snow didn’t set out to become a franchisee. But, after an experience with poor car care sparked a desire to make the automotive repair industry better, he connected with Rad Air. The company aligned with his vision and goals—so much so that he didn’t even consider looking at another brand. In 2014, he opened his Rad Air shop in Wickliffe, a community that was part of his childhood, and hasn’t looked back. Get to know Bill’s story and his unique perspective for prospective franchisees.
