Tire repair, replacement and balancing for heavy-duty trucks and fleets in Charlotte, NC — whether the problem arrived as a blowout or as a wear pattern nobody liked the look of.
Detail
Uneven tread wear, low pressure, vibration at speed, and cracks or bulges in a sidewall are all worth acting on the day you see them. Most of them are also symptoms of something that is not the tire: a wear pattern is usually geometry or suspension, and replacing the tire without fixing the cause buys a few thousand miles.
We put the numbers behind that in 7 tire maintenance tips.

FAQ
Tires should be inspected regularly, ideally before every long trip. Check tire pressure, tread depth and any signs of damage or wear during routine maintenance as well. Proper tire care prevents blowouts and improves fuel efficiency.
Balancing distributes a tire’s weight evenly around the wheel so it does not vibrate. Alignment adjusts the angles of the wheels so they make consistent contact with the road. Both are needed for smooth operation and even tire wear, and they are not substitutes.
In addition to Charlotte, NC, many of our customers come from all over North Carolina, including Shelby, Salisbury, Statesville, Hickory, Concord, Kannapolis, Mooresville and Matthews.

I personally think this is the best most knowledgeable shop great tire guys great mechanics. Very safety conscious! When you leave here all questions are answered and you’ll feel better about your ride. So if your coming through Charlotte stop in and check them out.
Professional, knowledgeable and reasonable on pricing. I’ve had alignments and balancing done here as well as an oil change. As an owner operator, I find Reed and the staff some of the best around in Charlotte when it comes to maintaining a semi.
EagleSpan installed 6 new tires on my RV. They got the tires I wanted quickly, balanced and mounted the tires while I waited. They even installed new valve stems. Friendly people, great prices and speedy service earns them 5 stars. It’s also the only place in the Charlotte area that I know of that does alignments on big rigs.
