Mobile Tire Service vs. a Tire Shop: Which Is Right for You?

When you need a tire repaired or replaced, you've got two choices: drive to a shop, or have a mobile tire technician come to you. Here's how they compare.

Time

At a shop, you count the drive there, the wait in line, the wait while they work and the drive back. With mobile service, the technician comes to you — at home, at work or wherever you're stopped — and you can keep doing your thing while the work gets done.

Getting there safely

If your tire is flat or badly damaged, getting to a shop means driving on a spare, driving on a damaged tire (which can ruin the wheel), or paying someone to haul it there. Mobile service removes that step entirely.

Hours

Most shops keep business hours. A flat at 11 p.m. or on a Sunday morning means waiting. Titan's mobile tire service runs 24/7.

Cost

It depends on the job. Mobile service is often competitive once you factor in what you save — no time off work, no ride to and from the shop. Ask for a quote on the phone so you can compare.

When a shop makes more sense

Some jobs need a full shop — alignments and major suspension or brake work, for example. For flats, tire replacement, new or used tires, batteries and oil changes, mobile service is hard to beat.
