Default Tires Needed - DFW

I'm in Frisco and looking to buy tires from a place who won't crack my rockers or damage my wheels. Thanks in advance for any recommendations.

Texas Track Works in Fort Worth. Talk to Forrest. im lowered a lot on my C5Z with no problems, and they will take real good care of you. They are all racers and good guys who do good work.

I had good luck with Discount Tire at Coit and George Bush in my C5, and I've also heard the one on Dallas North Tollway at Park is used by a lot of people with high end cars.

One suggestion, I would buy a set of the leave in jacking pucks, that way you don't have to worry as much about them damaging the rockers.

Could not agree more. Todd has serviced my cars over the years ranging from old vettes to my Pantera. He is extremely knowledgable and careful.
