I picked up a nail during my travels and read the excellent reviews about this business. Rodney and his team did not disappoint. In addition to the nail, the tire showed drastically uneven wear. I only plan on keeping my car for a few more months to a year, so we went with a low-cost replacement. Rodney explained the possible cause of the uneven wear and also checked my passenger-side rear tire to see if it was in a similar state (it wasn't). They are knowledgeable and professional, straight-talking and honest. I can't recommend this business enough!
