- TGT GNov 15, 20255.0They beat the price of Kal-Tire even with my discount there. Speedy service and knowledgeable people who work there. After my new tires and oil change were done my car was making a funny sound like it was gurgling and Cameron the owner told me to come back and he would take a look. By the time we got there the noise disappeared but he still went to check it out so that was much appreciated. Would recommend based on the customer service alone.
- SKSammy KalnyNov 7, 20255.0Absolutely lovely experience. I was going to leave back to Alberta this morning and realized I had no tire tread left and needed to get a new pair of tires quick. They were able to order the tires I needed and get them put on my car by the afternoon. Cameron is an absolute lifesaver and made the whole experience much less stressful. Thank you all :))
- JSJayne SimpsonOct 23, 20255.0I highly recommend this place what great customer service and products and staff! My son had a blowout on his tire and they got him in right away despite the fact that they are booked solid with tire changeovers! Thank you very so much for the great service. We’ll be back.!!

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.
