In all my years living in Tyler, I have never once been disappointed with the service and professionalism at The Tire Barn.
Today, many automotive businesses rely on gimmicks to draw in customers. The Tire Barn never bothered with gimmicks. They just offer excellent work and terrific customer service.
A few years back, I pulled over by the Canton Police and given two tickets for not having my registration or inspection stickers. This was a problem, because it was my friend’s car, and she wasn’t going to be in Texas for another two months. As the deadline for her registration (and my subsequent ticket dismissal) drew near, I could not pass the state inspection because her car’s tires were too bald, and I was not financially able to buy her a new set of tires.[ad#large-blog-block]
So I did what I always did when I had tire issues: I went to the Tire Barn on Spur 364 behind the Kelly Tires plant, and a short hop west of Lindsey Park. I would have taken the car there in the first place if I had known they do state inspections. I explained my dilemma and they went out back and began rummaging through some older tires. Five minutes later, they came back with tires in hand. In ten minutes, I was pulling out of Tire Barn with two new old tires, and a wallet that was breathing a sigh of relief. I passed inspection, and my tickets were dismissed.
But the thing I love most about The Tire Barn is how they treated my wife whenever she was there. As a husband, I am aware of how mechanics can try to bilk unsuspecting women into making unnecessary repairs, or finding inexplicable reasons to add to the final bill. But the good folks at Tire Barn were always respectful, professional and kind. They always helped her make the most cost-effective decisions.
