Do tires come with a warranty?

Tire warranties are backed by the manufacturer, and the coverage depends on the brand and model you buy — some include road-hazard protection, some don't. We'll walk you through exactly what's covered on the tires you pick before you commit. As for our workmanship: if something's not right with an install or repair we did, bring it back and we'll make it right.

When can I run studded tires in Alaska?

In the Anchorage area, studded tires are legal from September 15 through May 1. Outside that window, studs have to come off — and every year someone gets reminded the hard way. We handle seasonal changeovers, so when spring rolls around we can swap you back to your summer or all-season set and store-ready your winters.

What if I need help after hours?

Yes — emergency service may be available after hours for an additional charge. Call the shop and describe what's happening; if we can help, we'll tell you what it'll take. For anything unsafe to drive on, like a sidewall blowout, don't risk the road.

Can my flat tire be repaired, or does it need replacing?

Probably. We patch punctures properly from the inside when the damage is in the tread area — that's the fix that lasts. Sidewall damage, edge punctures, or a tire that's been driven flat usually means replacement. Bring it in and we'll take a look before quoting anything.

How fast can you get me in?

Most days, yes — we can usually get you in the same day you call or book. Grab a slot online for the fastest confirmed time, or just give us a ring and we'll find one that works. Want a quote first? Send us your tire size and we'll get back to you with options and real prices, usually the same day too.

What we do, in detail

Three ways we keep you rolling — each one done right, priced up front, and backed by people who'll see you around town.

Mechanic mounting a tire on a rim machine

Tire installation & mounting

New rubber, mounted and balanced by hand, torqued to spec, and double-checked before it leaves the bay. Whether you're buying a full winter set from us or bringing in your own, it goes on the same way.

Mounting and balancing on modern equipment
New valve stems where needed
Torqued to manufacturer spec, not guesswork
Quick inspection of tread and pressure on the rest of the set

From $30per tireAbout 15–20 minutes per tire

Mechanic balancing a truck tire on a machine

Tire rotation & balancing

The cheap insurance that keeps an expensive set of tires alive. Rotating on schedule evens out wear — especially important on Alaska roads, where frost heaves and gravel punish an uneven tire fast.

Rotation in the pattern right for your drivetrain
Wheel balancing to smooth out highway shake
Pressure set to your vehicle's spec, all corners
A look at tread depth and wear pattern while it's up

From $60per vehicleUsually 45 minutes to an hour

Tire tread marked around a screw puncture

Flat repair & patching

A nail in the tread doesn't have to mean a new tire. We patch from the inside — the proper repair — so a fixable tire stays a fixable tire, and you're back on the road the same day in most cases.

Full inspection to confirm the tire is safely repairable
Inside patch-plug repair, not an outside string fix
Remount, rebalance, and pressure check
An honest answer if it's not repairable — and options if it isn't

From $35per repairOften done in under an hour

Prices shown are starting points — your final number depends on your vehicle and the tires you pick. We confirm the full price with you before any work starts.

Before you roll in

What to bring

Not much — but a few things make the visit faster:

Your tire size (or just the vehicle — we can look it up)
Keys, and any wheel lock key if you have one
A quick word on anything that's been bothering you — a pull, a wobble, a slow leak

How to read your tire size

Look at the sidewall of any tire on your vehicle — you'll see something like 245/70R17. Here's what it means:

245 — the tire's width in millimeters
70 — the sidewall height as a percentage of width
R17 — radial construction on a 17-inch wheel

Can't read it, or not sure what fits? No problem — many vehicles can run more than one rim size, so send us your year, make, and model and we'll walk you through every size that fits, and what each one means for ride and cost.

What to expect
