FAQs

Big T's Wheel And Tire

  • What types of wheels do you repair?

    We provide repair services for most alloy wheels, excluding chrome finishes. Our repair capabilities extend to wheels from all applicable vehicle makes and models.
  • Is the new finish on my wheels durable?

    Absolutely. We utilize the highest grade industrial coating materials in our wheel refinishing process to ensure durability.
  • How long does it take to have my wheel repair done?

    Typically, we can complete the repair of a single wheel in approximately one hour.
  • Do I need to take the wheels off of my car?

    In many instances, we can perform wheel repairs while the wheel remains on the vehicle. If removal is necessary, we often don't need to remove the tire from the rim, which saves you time and money.
  • When should I replace my tires?

    Tire replacement is recommended when the tread depth reaches two-thirty-seconds of an inch or less. Additionally, if you observe cracks, bulges, vibration, or uneven wear, replacement may be necessary. For tires over six years old, we suggest an inspection even if they appear fine.
  • Can you plug a run-flat tire?

    Some run-flat tires can be plugged if the damage is minor and located in the tread area. However, many manufacturers advise replacement over repair. Our mobile team will inspect the tire and provide the safest recommendation.
  • Can a flat tire be repaired, or does it need to be replaced?

    Flat tire repair is often possible for small punctures in the tread area. However, damage to the sidewall or multiple punctures usually necessitate a full replacement. Our technicians will assess the tire before making a recommendation.
  • How long does it take to replace a tire?

    The process of replacing a single tire typically takes between 20 to 30 minutes. This includes removing the damaged tire, installing the new one, inflating it, and balancing if required. Our mobile service handles this entire process at your location.
  • How do I know if my tire needs to be balanced?

    Signs that your tires may need balancing include steering wheel vibration at certain speeds or uneven tread wear. Proper tire balancing contributes to a smoother ride and extended tire life.
  • Do you offer mobile tire installation services?

    Indeed, we do. Big T's Wheel and Tire provides comprehensive mobile tire installation services for cars and SUVs. We bring all necessary tires, tools, and equipment to your location to complete the service on-site.
