Following the diagnosis we will text you a digital vehicle inspection report, containing pictures and videos of our findings and recommendations.

Did You Know: The tires on your car wear at immensely different rates. Therefore rotating them on a regular schedule is your best defense to prevent the need to replace them early. A general guide to follow is to have them rotated every 5,000 miles or so.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you repair my flat tire, or need a new one?
We inspect the tire inside and out, then explain whether a safe repair is possible. If the damage is in the tread and the tire is otherwise healthy, repair may be an option. If it affects the sidewall or structure, we typically recommend replacement for safety.
How long does tire replacement usually take?
Most tire replacement visits are completed within a few hours, depending on how many tires you are replacing and whether additional services are needed. When you arrive, we provide a time estimate and offer a complimentary shuttle so you can continue your day while we work.
Do I need an appointment for tire repair?
Appointments help us plan your visit and reduce wait time, but we understand that tire problems are often unplanned. You are welcome to call ahead so we can advise you on the best time to come in and discuss safe options for getting your vehicle to the shop.
What kind of warranty do you offer on tire work?
We back our tire services with an industry-leading warranty that reflects our confidence in our workmanship. Specific coverage details can vary by service and parts used, so our team will review the warranty terms with you before work begins and answer any questions.
How will you help me choose the right tires?
We start by asking about your driving habits, typical mileage, and what matters most to you, such as ride comfort or longevity. Then we present tire options that fit your vehicle and budget, explaining the differences in clear language so you can choose what feels right.

FAQs
-
Q. "How often should you rotate your tires?"As a general rule of thumb, we recommend rotating your tires every 5,000 - 6,000 miles (although your driving style and vehicle types should also be taken into consideration). Rotating front and rear tires helps to ensure your tread wears down more evenly, optimizing your tire performance and extending its lifespan.
-
Q. "How do I tell if I need my tires rotated?"If you notice uneven wear across your tires or vibrations when driving, it may be time for a rotation.
-
Q. "How long should my tires last?"Your tire’s lifetime in mileage will depend on your maintenance and driving habits. Your tires could last up to 60,000 miles if you take good care of them, but this mileage will decrease if you don’t perform regular tire rotations.
-
Q. "How do tire rotations make my tires last longer?"Tire rotations help prevent uneven wear amongst your tires. Thus, improving the lifespan and preventing any handling issues from a worn-out tire.
