Discount Tire Extends With Team Penske

MOORESVILLE, N.C. — Team Penske and Discount Tire announced an extension on Sunday that will keep Discount Tire as the primary sponsor of Austin Cindric’s No. 2 Ford Mustang. 

Under the new multi-year partnership agreement, Discount Tire will build on its tradition of success with Team Penske across both its NASCAR and IndyCar programs.

Entering its 14th season as a Team Penske partner, Discount Tire will also sponsor the No. 12 Ford Mustang driven by Ryan Blaney in select Cup Series races this season and into the future, under the new agreement.

The partnership will also continue with Team Penske’s NTT IndyCar Series program as Discount Tire and Tire Rack will return as associate sponsors of the No. 2 Chevrolet driven by two-time series champion Josef Newgarden, along with the No. 3 Chevy driven by former series rookie of the year Scott McLaughlin and the No. 12 Chevrolet raced by 2018 Indianapolis 500 winner and reigning series champ Will Power.

“We are proud of Team Penske’s partnership with Discount Tire and the success we have had together over the years, including multiple championships and a victory in the Daytona 500,” said Roger Penske. “Our companies share many of the same core values and this is a partnership that continues to deliver, both on and off the race track. We are excited to build on our success together in 2023 and into the future.”

Discount Tire joined Team Penske prior to the 2010 NASCAR Xfinity Series season as the No. 22 Discount Tire team won six races, established a new series record with 26 top-five finishes and earned Team Penske’s first-ever NASCAR championship with the Xfinity Series title.

“Discount Tire is grateful for our partnership with Roger Penske and Team Penske,” said Michael Zuieback, executive chairman of Discount Tire. “For more than a decade, this partnership has allowed our people, our customers and our race team to dream bigger and we look forward to celebrating more championships together with Team Penske in the future.”
