- NONicole Den Ouden3 days ago5.0I have had great experience at Fountain Tire on Highview Ave East! The customer service was outstanding—everyone was friendly, helpful, and genuinely focused on making sure I was taken care of. They explained everything clearly, didn’t try to upsell me, and made the whole process easy and stress-free. It’s so refreshing to deal with a team that treats you with honesty and respect. Highly recommend!
- JBJessica BoweringNov 15, 20255.0Dave and his team are excellent and so knowledgeable, and explain things in a way that is easy to understand. I was given multiple quotes for new snow tires, rims, and sensors for my vehicle, with benefits of each option explained to me, and no pressure to buy the most expensive things. I will always take my vehicle to this location. Thank you Dave and Fountain Tire Wharncliffe!
- MLMadison LoveladyNov 10, 20255.0We’ve been going to David and his team since they opened, and we haven’t regretted it once! They’re always so friendly, accommodating, and somehow manage to fit us in whenever we need it. Their customer service is exceptional — they always know exactly who we are and which vehicle we’re calling about, which still surprises me every time! When I go in they always tell me to say hi to my husband as I leave if he isn't with me. It’s so nice to deal with a shop that truly cares about their customers and wants to get to know them. Highly recommend!
- JBJenny BaxterNov 6, 20255.0The team at fountain tire is awesome. David (the owner) went to great lengths to ensure my repairs were covered by my warranty, I appreciated the patience they had with all the back and forth! If you’re looking for a locally owned, trusted mechanic, I would definitely recommend their shop!
- DDDominicOct 31, 20251.0Extremely dissatisfied with the level of professionalism here! Was initially quoted $450 plus labour and then was told the price could be more. Definitely felt like I was being misled. I went to Stew Kraft's a local mechanic I have been going to for years and it turns out I did not even need a new AC compressor. I would highly advise you confirm pricing before allowing your vehicle to be serviced here! Best, Dominic
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.
