Just don’t drive on a flat, that will void any warranty you have you would be surprised how many times people would do that and then get mad when we couldn’t fix it or warranty it
I mean, if you have a blowout at any speed above 35 mph, that tire's sidewalks are fucked. Kind of hard not to sometimes like when you're on the highway.
I worked as a tire and lube tech at Walmart for nearly a year.
People who value their vehicles don't go to Walmart. I'd never recommend them and wouldn't when I worked there either.
Why is that?
tirerack.com then installed at discount tire(no bullshit, go see their huge bay) where i can actually watch them use a presumably annually-calibrated torque wrench and put in real effort into doing my wheels right which i've been honestly been impressed af watching them work on snowplow trucks to the AMGs. they do it all. they even have a bar you can sit at where you can stare at them if you want through a one-way-mirror while they work on your car too.
but also too you can simply go in there with your kid and ask one of them for advice on what they have on sale already, on what's they're trying to do with the vehicle exactly(looks or performance), they can recommend basically all the right stuff that won't break fitment sizes wheel and tire wise. i'd send all my family there.
sucks they don't do brakes for some reason though.
I agree! I’ve gone here and it was like I went it for a pit stop. Fast, friendly, good prices and a fun experience which is rare when buying tires
Discount Tire
Plaza Tire and Discount Tire are great on prices and service. They are the only two shops I will buy tires from.
Plaza has good customer service for sure and I like their lifetime alignment package, but steer clear if you’ve got an AWD vehicle. I’ve had two fun experiences that turned me off from going there any longer. Just a huge pain in the ass if you have anything go wrong because they are incredibly conservative when it comes to tread depth and it’s relation to AWD.
Smart Buy 1045 S Campbell.
And Doug the owner is an honest guy from my dealings with him.
Costco, Sam's Club and Wal-Mart
I had a good experience with Mitchem tire on Campbell. Dropped my car off and they were finished in a few hours.
They screwed up.my vehicle and were complete pricks about it. Not a fan
I’ve used D6 in Nixa and Sam’s club.
I'm from bolivar, but I ho to Parrish Tire in Bolivar. Best service I've had, decent prices, and rarely a wait
I go to mitchem on south Campbell. Family owned and they are super nice. I've never had a problem there and they've always worked with me if anything came up
Joe's tire shop
MTS, mobile tire service. Jordan is the owner, it's a decked out sprinter van with tire mounting and balancing equipment. You call him and he comes to you with your tires and performs all the work in your driveway or work. It's an awesome service.
Chappell's Tires on E Chestnut. Locally owned, good prices, ancient waiting room - it's perfect
Purcell on commercial
Tire buyer.com. pick your tire then they ship it to you or the installer of your choice. Much less expensive than anyplace I could find locally.
A tire shop...
Firestone Complete Care. If you use the one by the mall you can wander around or easily catch a ride from that location.

I know it sounds funny bit I like Walmart...Lifetime rotation, road hazard and balance...Thing is...Walmart is everywhere and if you road trip a lot, and I do, then I can get help just about anywhere easily if I have a flat.
