Default New Tire Kingdom on 301 next to Wawa

I had a nail in one of my tires and decided to go to the new Tire Kingdom on 301 next to Wawa. They are very concerned about making the customer happy. They do not push other services that you didn't come in for. Eric, store manager, told me they had their own entrance from 301 but the City of Wildwood told them it would cost $350,000 to keep it. Therefore they now use an entrance by Wawa and then you make a right and take a "service road" back to their business. It works fine, but you need to be aware of it. I would recommend them based on how they treated me, with an inexpensive flat repair.

Did they use a plug or patch?

Before we moved here used Merchants Tire for all mechanical services.

Some years ago they were taken over by Tire Kingdom.

New manager of store and suddenly they were pushing all kinds of stuff we did not think we needed.

As a result we went elsewhere.

Be interested to see how this one performs.
