Tire Repair
Keep on Rolling
Your tires are the literal point where the rubber meets the road, as the common saying goes. But the meaning behind the saying is true too—whether or not you reach your destination is dependent upon the state of your tires. Tires can become damaged in many ways and for many reasons. Certain types of damage can be fixed up at our tire repair shop, and others cannot. In the cases where the tire cannot be repaired, it must instead be replaced with a new one.
Punctured Tire
Usually a puncture occurs as a result of debris in the road, like nails, screws, or rocks or glass. If the puncture doesn’t exceed ¼ inches and it is located on the tread of the tire, we can quickly repair it with a plug and a patch. However, if the puncture is on the sidewall of the tire, we cannot repair it—you’ll need a new tire.
TPMS Rebuild Kit
Your Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) includes a sensor in each tire that alerts you when your tire pressure is low. Just like any other electronic device on your car, these occasionally go bad. Also, they need to be serviced whenever the tires are removed. We can install a TPMS rebuild kit for you.
TPMS Sensor
Newer cars are fitted with Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensors to alert you when your tire pressure is low. When you see the warning light depicted above, it means either you have a low tire or the sensor has gone bad. If your pressure is good, you've reset the sensor, and the light is still on, chances are the sensor has gone bad.
Tire Wear & Vibration
Your tires will inevitably wear down over time. But sometimes, they can wear unevenly for a number of reasons. It might be pointing to another problem with your vehicle or you may have run over something hazardous. If you feel a vibration when you drive or you notice uneven wear, it's best to get it checked out sooner rather than later.

Testimonials
Hear what our happy customers have to say about our excellent service.
We have had Beck's perform several different services on our vehicles. Most recently the installation of 4 tires. They provided several options in response to my request for an estimate, promptly scheduled installation, and informed me that an alignment was not needed instead of proceeding unnecessarily. Very friendly and competent staff!
