Open 7am–midnight, every day · Walk in at 504 S Carroll Ave
Uptown is one of the places where the map and the road disagree. The shop is a little over two miles away in a straight line and more than three and a half by road, which is worth knowing before you judge the trip by the dot on a map. This page covers that, and the work people most often make the trip for: wheels and the tires that go on them.
Two miles as the crow flies, nearer four by road
The straight-line distance from Uptown to the shop is about 2.2 miles. The road distance is about 3.6 miles, with an estimated seven minutes of driving on a clear road. That gap between the two figures is the largest on any of these pages, so the map view understates this trip more than most.
Mounting and balancing is its own job
Tires do not simply go on wheels. They are mounted, seated and balanced, and an unbalanced assembly is the usual reason for a vibration that appears at speed and disappears below it. That work has its own page here. If new wheels are part of the plan, the mounting conversation and the wheel conversation belong together.
Going that way anyway
The shop is open from 7am to midnight every day, which makes the trip southeast easy to fit around something else rather than having to be its own errand. Walk in at 504 S Carroll Ave; there is no appointment to make and nothing to book.
Common questions
Questions before you stop by
About 3.6 miles by road, with an estimated seven-minute drive when the road is clear. In a straight line it is only about 2.2 miles, so the map makes it look closer than the drive actually is. The shop lies southeast of Uptown, at 504 S Carroll Ave, Dallas, TX 75223.
Because a straight line is a measurement between two points and a road distance is what you actually drive. On this trip the difference is about a mile and a half, the widest gap of any area listed on this site. Use the road figure, about 3.6 miles, when you are deciding how long to allow.
Yes. Mounting seats the tire on the wheel; balancing corrects the small weight differences around the finished assembly. Skipping it is how a vibration at highway speed starts. There is a page on this site for mounting and balancing that explains what the work involves and what the price depends on.
No. The shop takes walk-ins every day between 7am and midnight, and there is no booking system. If you are coming from Uptown for something specific — a wheel size, a tire size, a setup you are building — calling (214) 797-4292 first means the shop knows what is arriving before you get there.
The vehicle, the tire size off the sidewall, and the wheel lock key if the lug nuts are locking ones. Without that key the wheel does not come off and the job stops before it starts. If the key is lost, the wheel lock removal page on this site covers what the options are.
