I really enjoyed my experience with Tire World. Generally, I try and make a choices based on online prices at retailers, which led to extreme complacency. Tire World does not post their prices online, you need to call or email for a quote. I called because I think that generates better results. I shopped for tires for the last 4 months trying to decide on the tire I wanted. Tire Rack is a great source for this as the post the most relevant information on UTQG ratings for tires. Tire Rack recently marked the Bridgestone Ecopia EP422 down under $ 100. This seems like a good tire based on treadwear, traction, and it is also low rolling resistance. Costco priced these tires at $ 112 per tire, plus installation costs. Tire World charged $ 155 for the tire, mounting, and balancing. This is a great price for this tire. Tire World charged me $ 75 for a four wheel alignment. This is between $ 10 — $ 30 cheaper than quotes I received from Sears, Firestone, and a couple other shops. While my car was in for service, Mike(who is great) told me that my struts and rear coils were bad(completely obliterated). I knew that they were bad since I bought the car and this was part of the disclosure. They also noticed that a rear coil was broken and that a gas tank strap had rusted off(i knew this as well). They charged $ 487 for the front struts and links, $ 383 for the rear coils, and $ 10 for the gas strap. Honestly, If I had not known that these issues existed I may have felt under the gun, but I knew I had to fix them anyway and the car was in the shop. I called Vail’s in the South Wedge(I like Vail’s because they try to keep costs low) and they said that they could maybe do the job for $ 50 less, but said the prices were in the right area. Other big bonuses about this place 1) They had my tire size in Stock(215÷55÷16). Every place I called didn’t really have that size in tires I wanted. 2) Mike is friendly and straight forward(and comforting). 3) Randy, my mechanic, seemed like a great guy. We talked a little about the car. 4) This is a low pressure environment. 5) Everything was really clean and organized. My impression is that this is a great shop with great staff and good prices. I think that if you found a better price elsewhere that they would match it or do better. PS — I submitted a pic of my bill. There was $ 112 in taxes added on the end(New York!!!).

Just had snow tires put on both our vehicles. Very affordable and waiting room is comfortable. I like how they also offer inspections and other services. The manager, Mike, is very knowledgable and honest. He always is super nice and takes the time to help you decide what is best for your car.
