Selecting tires is an important decision that affects the safety, performance, and cost of owning a motor vehicle.
Just as important as selecting the right tires is to have those tires installed and balanced by a trained technician. Without proper installation and balancing, you may find that your vehicle ‘pulls’ to one side, your steering wheel shakes, or you’re spending more money on gas.
Ask our staff if your vehicle needs a wheel alignment.
It is also important to select a great Repair Center. Ask our staff to check your vehicle for a once over. Brakes, battery, wipers or any of your mechanical needs.
