TLDR: Shady business. I wanted to support a small business, so I went there and purchased two new front tires. However, the worker informed me that he could not balance one of the tires and suggested I try another shop. He provided a partial refund for the failed balancing attempt, and I subsequently took the tire to another shop for balancing. Upon inspection, it was discovered that the tire had a bubble on the inside. I returned to the original business to inquire about a refund, but they stated they could only replace the defective tire. I agreed to the replacement, and initially, the new tire appeared to be in good condition. This was likely due to the fact that the tire had been washed and was still wet, creating the illusion of a good tire. However, once the tire dried at home, I noticed significant signs of dry rot. I then attempted to locate the tire's manufacturing date, but discovered that they had deliberately installed the outside of the tire on the inside, making the date illegible (unless the wheel was removed). I removed the driver's side wheel and found evidence of tampering. It appeared that the original date had been cut off, and a new date had been applied using a heating tool (see picture). Similarly, the passenger side tire, also with the outside facing inward, displayed a 2020 manufacturing date. I will no longer be supporting this business. It is a shame.

Scammers. Tires are old and dry rotted. They will wet it before they put it on so you don't see the dry rot. They'll mount the tires backwards to hide the manufacturing date or have it shaved down. So be sure to check the date!! These people are shady. Take your business to a legit tire shop.

Purchased a tire on a Friday then went out of town (not in my car)came home Sunday and the tire was almost flat. Put air in it three times from Sunday night to Monday. Took my car back up there and they said it was a nail in it then they wanted to charge me to plug it. The tire still has a leak in it. So $55 down the drain. I will never go back

The man changing the tire with the dreads was very rude and mean! He forgot to put the middle piece of my rim back on and acted like it was my fault! Bad customer service!
