I woke up today to see my car sitting in the driveway with a flat. Bummer. So we thought about what to do... patch, or replace. We did some searching around on the internet, some measuring of the tread, and determined that it was patch-time. So we called the local tire place and they said to come on over before noon (Saturday). So we popped in there around 10:15, and walked out about 30 minutes later. There's something really great about living in the country - quick service, and for $20. Really great guys working in here (father-son duo), and really great prices. They will even come to you if you need it (not sure on the price w/ that, just give them a call!)
My dad has gotten a bunch of smaller tractor tires patched there as well, for $14 each. The price on the new tires seems about on par with other places (just a touch higher, but to be expected). Overall could not be happier with this place. Just what you want when you have a bum tire - someone to help you out quick without breaking the bank! (But you could always go to the Bridgewater Bank Tavern instead, which is right across the street.) read more
