The company has been family owned for more than 85 years. It began in 1934 when Herb Ginman opened Ginman Tire and Oil Co. near the Muskegon Yacht Club, evolving from earlier roots as a gasoline and tire store during the Great Depression. The family's business tradition goes back further, to when Bert Ginman arrived in Muskegon from England to start a one-man boat-building company. Today the business is run by Julie Hunter and Rob Ginman, with Julie having joined her father full time in 1999 and Rob having joined his father full time in 2002. Most of the shop's customers come through long-term relationships, family referrals, and word of mouth. Store hours run Monday through Friday from 8:00am to 6:00pm.

The shop sits at 665 W Clay Ave at the corner of West Clay Avenue and Eighth Street, about 0.1 miles from Shoreline Drive and 0.2 miles from West Muskegon Avenue. Heritage Landing and the Fire Barn Museum are both within roughly a third of a mile.

With more than eight decades of continuous family operation in Muskegon, Ginman Tire Co remains a steady source for tire sales, service, and retreading on West Michigan's lakeshore.
