- CECaroline ElDec 28, 20251.0I had a terrible experience here. Got the whole package done for my front brakes and they are rumbling. Not happy with the service here. Also quoted me $750 for a new windshield... Sherwood Dodge dealership did my windshield for $226. I will never return to fountain Tire again and highly do NOT recommend them as a company as a whole. I know each fountain Tire is privately owned and this is now the second one I've had problems with. Come here if you want to be over charged and taken advantage of.
- LJLa JefaDec 28, 20252.0Don't come here. They don't know how to properly change brakes. Changed mine in the summer and now less than 6 months later they're rumbling and sticking hard. Force you to do a brake line fluid flush. Asked them to do the rotors only they said no you have to do rotors and pads and flush. Charged me $1700. My fault for accepting and trusting these guys. Found a new mechanic who was able to do just the warped back rotors for me, brembo brand for $450 since the pads were still good. Whatever you do, do not business with any fountain Tire. I've learned my lesson.
- JPJ PDec 11, 20255.0Stopped in on a very cold day to have a tire filled. Not only did they get me in straight away without an appointment, they did not charge me a cent. Will certainly return for any tire needs in the future.
- LALaurie AdamDec 10, 20255.0Thank you for fitting us in to get the brakes done! Much appreciated. Great place to take your vehicle in for repairs!

Frequently Asked Questions About Fountain Tire
When should I replace my tires?
Tires wear out over time, and how long they last depends on things like road conditions, driving habits, inflation, and temperature. The best way to know when to replace them is to check them regularly.
Common ways to measure tread include the following.
- Tread wear bars: When these are flush with the tread, it’s time to replace.
- Coin test: If too much of the coin shows, your tread is low.
- Tread depth gauge: The most accurate way to measure.
If your tread is low or you see cracks, bulges, or notice vibration, come see us.
What are some signs my vehicle is out of alignment?
It doesn’t take much to throw your alignment off—potholes, curbs, or just everyday driving. Poor alignment can lead to faster tire wear and poor handling.
Common signs include:
- Vehicle pulls to one side
- Crooked steering wheel
- Uneven tire wear
- Loose or unstable steering
- Vibration in the steering wheel
If something feels off, we’re happy to take a look.
What’s included in the seasonal car care package?
Our seasonal car care package gets your vehicle ready for the weather ahead. It includes:
- Fresh engine oil and filter
- Chassis lubrication (as needed)
- Charging and starting system check
- Brake inspection
- Fluid top-ups
- Belt and hose inspection
- Battery test
- Tire and pressure check
- Heating/cooling system check
- Lights, wipers, and overall safety check
It’s a great way to make sure your vehicle is ready for the season.
What do the numbers on my tires mean?
The numbers on your tire’s sidewall tell you the size, load rating, and speed rating.
Example: 225/55R17 97H
- 225 – Tire width (mm)
- 55 – Height as a % of width
- R – Radial construction
- 17 – Wheel diameter (inches)
- 97 – Load rating (how much weight it can carry)
- H – Speed rating (maximum safe speed)
These numbers help us match you with the right tire.
When should I put my winter tires on?
A good rule of thumb: when you can see your breath — about 7°C and below. At that temperature, all-season tires start to harden, while winter tires stay flexible and grippy. Booking early helps you beat the rush.
