Reasons to buy local tires

Here at Chapel Hill Tire, our local tire business thrives thanks to our loyal customers and the support of the community. However, our customers keep coming back time and time again because they receive a higher level of service than is offered by tire wholesalers or nationwide chains. Here's a closer look at 8 benefits of buying from a local tire and mechanical business like Chapel Hill Tire.

Support local and small businesses

When you buy a tire from a local shop, you support small businesses in your area. This helps support your neighbors, create jobs in your area, and mobilize the local economy. Instead of putting money into the pockets of huge corporations, buying tires from a local store will help keep your area prosperous.

Save Money: Best Price Guaranteed

Small businesses have earned a deceptive reputation for high prices when in fact you can often get much lower prices when you buy tires from a public company. For example, when you find tires from a wholesale distributor or a national tire network, you might think that they will give you the lowest price. However, when you communicate your offer to the local tire experts at Chapel Hill Tire, you will receive our Best Price Guarantee. As part of our Best Price Guarantee, we will give you a 10% discount off the lowest tire price. This means you get a lower price than your lowest price, in addition to all the other benefits of buying locally. 

Personal service from local tire experts

For large chain tire stores, you may just be a different person. However, small businesses like Chapel Hill Tire are known for building strong relationships with our customers. As a local community business, we treat everyone who walks through our doors like family. 

Tire deals, coupons and promotions

Sometimes it seems that the big tire companies and retail chains are trying to get as much money as possible from their customers. This is why many of them lack transparent pricing or detailed information about services. The Chapel Hill tire is different. We make our prices affordable for our customers so you never run into last minute price surprises. Also, in addition to the everyday low prices, local tire stores often offer special offers, coupons, and promotions to ensure you get a great deal on your tires. 

Service privileges and other special offers

When you partner with a public business that cares deeply about their customers, you will see how this translates into a shopping experience. Chapel Hill Tire offers special perks to help our customers get new tires and car care. For example, we offer a shuttle service that will take you to work, school, or home while your vehicle is being serviced. Our local experts also offer car delivery/collection, making it even easier for you to get high-quality care. Best of all, we offer an affordable comprehensive tire warranty as part of our Tire Crash Protection Plan - a warranty you won't find in a wholesaler.

Expanded tire selection

Large tire distributors often partner with certain brands to get their bulk discounts and higher profit margins. Instead of dealing with tire brand loyalty, local tire shops like Chapel Hill Tire can often offer a wider selection. This will help you find tires that are right for your vehicle, preferences, and budget. Best of all, you can browse our selection of tires online using our tire search tool. 

Fast attention and professional expertise

Unlike big chain tire stores, small businesses are more likely to put you first with fast service and attention to detail. Here at Chapel Hill Tire, we take our time to share our professional experience and knowledge. Instead of trying to sell you our new tires and services, we help you understand your vehicle's needs so you never feel like you're being taken advantage of. 

Tire mechanic experience

Our tire expertise is inscribed in our name here at Chapel Hill Tire, but each of our tire technicians is also an experienced mechanic. We know that your vehicle is a complex network of internal systems. Sometimes a tire problem is not related to the tires at all, but to the steering system, discs or brakes. Our extensive experience allows our local tire shop to protect your tires and repair your vehicle with a wide range of mechanic services.
