I had a great experience at the Mavis Tire on Epps Bridge Parkway in Oconee County (right in front of Lowe’s). I came in on a Saturday with a slow leak in my tire and no appointment. They got me in right away, found a small nail, fixed the tire, and had me back on the road in less than an hour. They didn’t even charge me for the repair. Everyone I interacted with was friendly and helpful. Really impressed with the service—highly recommend them!
