Need new tires in Philadelphia? Philadelphia Tire Shop handles new tires across Philadelphia, PA and the towns around it — measured first, quoted out the door, and walk-ins taken.
New Tires done right
Out-the-door pricing with mounting, balancing, valve stems, disposal and tax already in the number. We measure before we quote, put the whole number in one figure rather than adding fees at the counter, and torque every wheel to the vehicle's own spec on the way out.
- Out-the-door pricing — tires, mounting, balancing, stems, disposal and tax in one number.
- Measured, not eyeballed — tread depth on all four corners, and brakes while the wheels are off.
- Repaired where it can be repaired — a puncture in the tread crown is a patch-plug, not a new tire.
- Build dates read out loud — the DOT code tells you the week and year, and you hear it before it is mounted.
The five things that have to be in an out-the-door price
A tire price that is only the tire is not a price. Mounting, balancing, new valve stems or TPMS service kits, disposal of the old tires, and tax all land on the final bill, and together they are the gap between the number you saw online and the number at the counter. When Philadelphia Tire Shop quotes four tires, that quote is the out-the-door total. If something would change it, a seized sensor or a bent wheel, you hear about it before the work happens rather than after.
Reading the build date before it goes on your car
The last four digits of the DOT code on the sidewall are the week and the year the tire was built. A code ending 3623 means the thirty-sixth week of 2023. New is not a date: a tire can sit in a warehouse for years and still be sold as new, and rubber ages whether or not it turns. We read that code out loud on every tire before it is mounted. Ask us for it. Any shop that will not show you the number is telling you something.
