Tire & Wheel Sales & Installation

Here at Ogilvie’s Auto & Fleet Service, we are an authorized retailer for Tire Discounter. We can work with you, taking into consideration your budget, driving habits, and age of vehicle to choose a tire or wheel that best suits your vehicle’s needs. 

We can order and install tires and wheels for any make and model of vehicle.

Tire Rotation

Front tires wear more because they are subject to strong forces during turns, especially on front-wheel drive vehicles. Rotating all four tires assures they wear evenly between front and back, and they will last longer. 

Tire rotation patterns vary on different vehicles. Your NAPA AUTOPRO technician can perform the correct tire rotation for your vehicle and recommend the timing–usually between 8,000 and 10,000 kilometres.

Wheel Balancing

Slight weight differences between the tires can cause a disbalance. That can result in annoying vibrations at speed as the wheels essentially bounce while you drive down the road. Unbalanced tires tend to wear out prematurely.

Common Signs of Problems:

·       Unbalanced front wheel: vibrations in the steering wheel

·       Unbalanced rear wheel: vibrations in the seat

·       Uneven tire wear

Tire Repairs

A flat tire is a common occurrence that can happen to anyone at any time. If you get a flat tire, it is important to have it repaired as soon as possible. Driving on a flat tire can be dangerous and can damage your vehicle.

How We Repair Flat Tires

Our technicians are experienced in repairing flat tires.

·       Patch/plug repair: This method is used for punctures to the tire. A plug involves applying a plug inside the tire puncture hole. A patch repair involves applying a patch to the inside of the tire over the puncture hole.

·       Replacement: If the tire is too damaged to be repaired, it will need to be replaced.
