FREE Alignment with any 4-tire purchase ($129.99 Value)
Receive a free alignment with any 4-tire purchase at any Tire Discounters location. That's a $129.99 value plus a 12-month warranty! We believe you should always get an alignment with a new set of tires. It can cause treads to wear unevenly, and in the worse case void your tire manufacturer’s warranty. Then, as we all know too well, during your vehicle's life, potholes are hit, sharp turns are taken, and brakes are slammed - all of which cause your components to wear down and shift. Do not worry, this is natural wear and tear - but it can accelerate tire damage. When we align your tires, we are returning the angles of your vehicle's wheels to your manufacturer's specifications.Receive a free alignment with any 4-tire purchase at any Tire Discounters location.

- Rating 1.0August 11, 2023Used to be a loyal Porterfield customer for over 20 years. After being bought by Tire Discounters they have been progressively worse with each visit. Today ended my relationship with them when I went to get my free tire rotation and was told I would have to wait four hours! Why would they not have someone dedicated to small jobs such as rotations or fixing a flat? So my five vehicles and I won’t be going there any longer.Tire DiscountersAugust 12, 2023We’re sorry we didn’t meet your expectations, Tammy. Understand that we take great pride in our craft and strive to have all of our locations operating at a high level and have been doing that as family-owned business since 1976.

- Rating 1.0January 8, 2022Bill the d**k h$$d tire guy is fake. I was a loyal customer because their one of the only ones that can put on my 24s correctly. We had a issue with one and Bill said they'd honor the warranty, per usual. So my wife drove it there from Gainesville 44miles one way, we moved,. Well Bill came up with every excuse even went as far saying it wasn't their tire,we're loyal customers. Needless to say Bill sent my wife 44miles home without honoring it. Obviously we won't be loyal customers no more.Tire DiscountersJanuary 9, 2022We take great pride in our craft and strive to have all of our locations operating at a high level, Garrett.

They are a very busy shop and very popular in our town. Busy means you may have to wait but they have a great lobby that doesn't overwhelm you with the smell of tires. I bought 4 new tires once and got one replaced recently in an emergency, they took me in. My apologies if my emergency caused someone else to wait longer.Tire DiscountersMay 18, 2021Thank you for the review and feedback! Your time is important and we appreciate you being a valued Tire Discounters customer. We hope that we can earn that last star on your next visit.
