Easy to work with. I was able to order tires from another site, have them mailed there and they price matched. However, when I picked up my car it was on...it was running with no one inside!!! Keys were inside the shop. Gas is too expensive for that stupidity! Do better.

For years, I've been going to Town Fair Tire in Fairhaven for alignment, balancing and tire rotation and am always pleased with their service. For the past 3 years, Clerk #356 (whose name, sadly, I haven't gotten lodged in my head, but whose face I recognize) has kindly come outside to help me avoid exposure to the tire smell that makes me feel icky. He's so kind and friendly and informative. He deserves a raise!
