Tire Sales and Installation
We sell and install tires for cars, SUVs, pickups, vans, and medium-duty trucks. We carry every major brand — Michelin, Bridgestone, Goodyear, Continental, BFGoodrich, Firestone, Cooper, Toyo, Hankook, and more. Tell us how you drive and what you want to spend. We'll help you pick the right tire, no upsell. Installation includes mounting, balancing, TPMS care, and wheels torqued to spec. Call for a quote — it takes two minutes.
Tire Rotation
Rotating your tires every 5,000 to 7,500 miles makes them last much longer. Each drivetrain has its own correct pattern, and we follow yours. On many vehicles, rotation is free with your oil change. It's one of the cheapest ways to protect the money you spent on tires.
Hunter Road Force Wheel Balancing — The Premium Standard
Got a shake no one can fix? That's what Road Force is for. Most shops use a basic spin balancer. We use Hunter Road Force balancers — the same equipment dealerships trust. Road Force presses a roller against the tire while it spins, like real driving. It finds problems basic balancing can't see: bad tires, bent wheels, and tire-wheel combos that will never ride smooth. Then it shows us how to fix them. If your vehicle vibrates at highway speed, call 308-641-5345. We can solve it.
Wheel Alignment — Hunter Alignment Machines, Hunter-Certified Technicians
Bad alignment eats tires and makes your vehicle pull or wander. We fix it with Hunter alignment machines — the gold standard, used by dealerships nationwide. Our techs are Hunter-certified and Hunter-trained. We align everything: 2-wheel, 4-wheel, lifted trucks, and European vehicles with special procedures. Most alignments are done the same day. New tires? Hit a big pothole? Vehicle pulling? Call us and we'll check it.
TPMS Service and Repair
That tire pressure light on your dash comes from TPMS sensors inside your tires. Sensor batteries die after five to ten years, and then the light won't go away. We replace failed sensors, reset the system, and handle the relearn steps every make needs — including luxury brands, hybrids, and EVs. If your light is on, call us. It's usually a quick fix.
Tire Repair — Patches, Plugs, and Emergency Service
A nail in your tire doesn't always mean a new tire. Small punctures in the tread can be fixed safely with a proper inside patch — much better than a cheap plug from outside. Sidewall damage and big holes mean replacement, and we'll tell you straight which one you've got. Got a flat? Don't drive on it. Put the spare on and call 308-641-5345. We'll work you in fast.
Seasonal Tire Services — Winter and Summer Changeovers
Panhandle winters are real. Below 45 degrees, winter tires grip better than all-seasons on any road — not just snow. If you run a winter set, we swap them on in fall and off in spring. Thinking about winter tires? Call us and we'll help you decide if they make sense for how you drive.
Fleet Tire Programs
Tires are a big cost for any fleet. We build tire programs that fit your business: one tire choice across the fleet, rotations tied to your service schedule, one monthly bill, and priority scheduling. Learn more about our fleet services program, or call and ask for a fleet quote. We know downtime costs you money.

Tire Services FAQ
How often should I rotate my tires?
Every 5,000 to 7,500 miles. On many vehicles we rotate free with your oil change. It's the cheapest way to make tires last.
How do I know when I need new tires?
Try the penny test. Put a penny in the tread with Lincoln's head down. If you can see all of his head, you need tires. For safe winter driving, we suggest replacing a bit sooner. Cracking, uneven wear, or a tire that keeps losing air are also signs. Stop by and we'll check free.
How often should I get an alignment?
Once a year, and any time you buy new tires. Also after a hard hit like a big pothole or a curb. Our Hunter machines and certified techs handle every kind of alignment.
What is Hunter Road Force balancing and do I need it?
It balances the tire under real driving load, not just spinning weight. It catches problems basic balancing misses. If you have a shake that won't go away, or you want the smoothest ride possible, it's worth it. Call us — we have the equipment.
