- Thinking about opening up a Tire Shop? There are many people thinking about opening up their own tire shop biz, or is going to manage one, or has one but would like to learn more about the ins and outs, and what’s potentially ahead down the road.
Video taken in the SoCal 626 SGV area but applies pretty anywhere in the US and other countries where there is a city population of over 30k people / 100k metro area.
It is recommended to work at a Tire Shop for 2 years minimum before going off on your own to avoid easily avoided issues, get thru problems a lot faster and cost you a lot less money on expenses that could of been avoided which can turn a business from making you money to a business that’s costing you money.

Your job is just as important as most.
Great info brother, thank you for your honesty and for the inspiration you have given me today!
Market should be good for good used tires during inflation where prices are going up 20% or more. . Keep us updated.
It’s very good we’re usually busy all day. I’ve been Thru the 07 recession also, used tires sales was not affected.
@@LAMamba626 Can you share any after sale issues with customers, especially with liability due to tire blew up if any?
@@jamescc2010 yes I can talk about this on my next video 👍
la mamba i wish you a lot of success, you have a great heart
Thanks another Rudy hope to join the business one day
Nice congrats, how many tires to start with? What sizes to stock most
As many as you can
@@LAMamba626 is $10k of tires good to start
@@IbnFalastin to start with whatever amount you got will do for inventory, you will be building up every week as you go. As long as you got all the equipment/tools you need that will be more important than how much inventory you got because the new tire warehouses can give you credit and you can pay them at the end of the month that’s a good advantage when starting out.
@@LAMamba626 thanks for your guidance
how do you buy used tires and where please i wanna start my own tire business much love from chicago
From used tire wholesalers
Thanking you for your helful video. Thank you.
I work with it here in Brazil, perhaps I will work with you one day...
Good video. I like.
You never know!
Thanks for the info im looking forward to opening a tire shop one day and it was very much needed
I love your video bro, you feel. Thanks
before you open, research your market (city, location, competition). I don't care how long you've had your business. Most customers are your customers until they find someone cheaper, especially in this economy (2023). Set your hourly rate and by God stick to it. For services. price your service based on equipment used and not on competition. The gentleman in this video explains that you can buy used machinery, this is true. But DON'T charge based on what you paid for the equipment, charge based on the value. I have a newer model of his favorite machine which cost me $13,000. Add a $300 shop jack, $300 air gun ($800 snapon or matco cordless impact), $3000 shop compressor, total $16,000 in equipment needed for a simple flat repair. Keep in mind that the equipment doesn't work itself, human labor has to be factored in. You are not going to invest $17,000 to make a profit charging $10-$20. You'll be living paycheck to paycheck....if that. You will be packed THINKING you're making a profit, but far from it. Might as well work for someone. work less and get paid more. Stick to your guns gentlemen, educate yourselves, huge difference between opening a business and running a business, good luck and God bless your endeavors.
Very true that’s why I buy used machines at 5k rebuilt if you look at my newer videos you can see one I just bought recently. About the $20 labor charge , the thing is every shop charges the same. If I would to charge more than that then a lot of customers won’t come to me they will go elsewhere like you said they will find somebody cheaper. But Labor $20 per tire ain’t bad, if you and your crew do a cars 4 tires in 20 min which is the average time for us then that’s $80 in 20 min and you move on to the next car quick.
Am in florida am a truck driver but am trying to get off the road and get into the truck tires business any advice
Great business imo best way to start is doing road service business
How much is it needed to start a modest tire business if you already have your own location but need tires and equiqment?
Then you just need the air compressor, 1 tire machine to start with (used where I’m at run $4500, balance machine new around 5k , gun sockets some glue and patches are not that much less than a thousand dollars and when it comes to tires as much as you can afford on that
@@LAMamba626how do you buy tires wholesale?
Do you offer any types of warranty with new tires just curious if ppl care about that stuff with family owned tire shops as opposed to chain stores
Yes Free Flat Repairs and Free Rotations on most types of new tires
Everyone needs tires
Thanks for video bud!! I've had some experience working on cars and I'm thinking of opening up my own tire shop next year. I got estimates for all machines but my question is how much Tire inventory do I need?
Nice. Usually money is a big factor when opening one up so I say as much as you can to start off with. You will build your inventory every month. You will be getting your money back pretty quick with inventory so don’t be afraid to choke and grow!
@@LAMamba626 that's good to know. I live in Edmonton Canada. Tire change is the big business when season changes here. I'm also thiking of adding detailing service with tire shop to survive in slow months. Do you think it's a good idea?
@@10ce213 yeah thats very good you can see on my other videos what I do at my shop besides tires. Multiple streams of income within the walls of a tire shop.
Does it require any kind of license to start working with tires and start own shop? I am from Ontario.
Thanks
Yes a business license
I will start my tire business this year.
When you start from zero, usually how long it takes to becoming profitable. I mean, pay the rent for the place and make some reasonable money? I know every situation is unique, but just something close on general view.
The more inventory you have the faster you become profitable.
Hey I’m trying to build a big one I need someone with experience can you help ? To tell me wha I need
Yeah hit me up man americanmusclefan123@gmail.com
Where do you the buy new tires wholesale?
I can see myself being involved in the business as a partner. The day to day operations and stress can be handled by someone else.
that is not necessary it isnt very expensive to start the business so why would someone want a useless partner.? no offense but there are other options
For lack of better words don’t be a bitc] you have to be involved in the business hands on if you want success. No one will respect you.
Great video. Do you have an email? I’m looking to start a tire shop and I have a lot of questions. I don’t mind paying you for your knowledge. Thanks!

How come leave your tyres outside and got no stolen??
Safe here
Any insight on commercial truck tires?
I also do work the semi truck tires high profits I highly recommend it if you want to have a tire shop
@@LAMamba626 Any good nationwide suppliers? What about recaps and buying used tires? Any good resources I'm in Virginia.
@@shanra4764 you can look for individual supplies to save some money but usually all shops buy from a vendor that drives to your shop and you buy from them because you rub out of supplies randomly so you pick what you need quick instead of waiting a few days to get. And recaps you need to look around your area. You need to go drop off your cases and pick up your recaps when you go to make it worth it.
@@LAMamba626 Thanks Mamba I will do my due diligence from there!
Is this really 1h35m long? I was 1m30s in and I was like holy shit why is this guy so long winded? Then I saw the length and I was like, ah this is why he's in the tire business and not the public speaker business.
💯
Do you sell multi brand or you have single brand
Multi
Nice man, I’ve been running a tire shop for the past year now, good money, zero time, I see by the stickers you carry accelera and America’s tires as well
Nice yeah we do man!
Love the video
Great video
Damn dude organize your wheel weights lol
I bought a already established tire shop here in Louisiana id like to talk to you sometime.
Anytime
Used tires are discarded for a reason. Side wall compromise, treadwear, dry rot. A new China tire supercedes a premium used tire in many cases. Tpms sensors broken by tire installation and customer will not be told. There are tire shops who comply with DOT laws but most don't. Cupped tires being sold, uneven treadwear tires being sold. They buy used tires from car dealers who discard them because they are declared no good. If they declare them no good? If the vehicles suspension is worn, a used tire will become more dangerous for unforseen circumstances. Tire safety can be a life or death situation. Buy new instead of used. New economy tires are available for a set of used. Exact tire size is also important. 5 years, 5/32 tread depth are deemed for a tire to be destroyed, especially for sidewall collapsing compromise. Over corrections on steering will blow sidewalls and vehicle rollover can happen. These are facts. Research these facts for your and your family's safety.
Jeez you’ll have to show us your shop some time and how you do tires
Do you have an email I could reach you at to ask some questions?
