Where the listings come from
Shop listings are pulled from OpenStreetMap, an open, crowd-mapped database of real-world businesses. We query for tire shops and repair shops with "tire" in the name within roughly 15 miles of each city's center — the same kind of business data that powers many mapping apps.
What "used tire shop" means here
Open mapping data doesn't have a way to tag a shop as specifically "used tires" versus new — that distinction doesn't exist as a map category. In practice, most independent local tire shops buy, sell, and trade used tires as a normal part of their business, alongside new inventory. We flag shop names that explicitly mention "used," "budget," or "discount" as a signal, but the absence of that word in a shop's name doesn't mean they don't carry used tires — call ahead to confirm they have your size in stock.
The verification bar
A city only gets a full shop listing page once we've found at least 3 distinct local shops for it. Cities that don't clear that bar show an honest "no verified local shops yet" page instead of a thin or padded one.
No pay-to-play
Listing a shop on this site is free. We do not charge shops for placement, and paid partnerships never affect which shops appear or in what order.
What we can't verify
We don't call every shop to confirm live used-tire inventory, current hours, or pricing — that changes too often for a directory to track in real time. Treat what's listed here as a starting point for your own call, not a guarantee.
