After a super successful launch of the website in the 2nd quarter of last year, we have some new things in store for 2014! We plan on adding a few more hand selected wheel brands to the online selection as well as some other minor changes we think you will like, so stay tuned!

First post to the new blog deals with tips on keeping your tires fresh and how to identify when tires need replacing.  You can check it out by clicking here!

It's getting hot out there! We get three times as many vehicles in with blowouts when the temperature exceeds 90 degrees. Rubber softens up, deteriorates, and older tires that have a considerable amount of dry cracking can come apart under these conditions. Low air pressure and heavy loads add to this problem by causing the tire to flex more under the rim, which creates friction in the rubber and therefore even more heat. Check your air pressure, check your tires for dry cracking, and pull over every now and then and give your tires a chance to cool down if you're traveling long distances in extreme heat. Safety first!
