His name is Andy “The Tire Guy” 352 434-2254 mobile service that comes right to your home and yes he does check the alignment after he changes the tires. Great guy great mobile service. Good luck Ask him if he could mount one of your replaced tire on a plain rim as a spare he did it for me and charged me for the rim.

Sumter Tire (north) on 301 in Wildwood has always been reasonable for us. Took the wheels off and took them over. Call first to insure they have them in, get quote and mounting appt and they did them while we waited. Highly recommend them for car repair and maintenance work too.

We have used the services of THE TIRE GUY, ANDY ROBINSON. 3524342254. He comes to your house. He is very good and honest.

I used Tire Choice at Colony for a new set of Loadstar tires for my golf cart (a popular tire for Yamahas). I called to get a price quote and appointment. No issues and they took me on time. I have not used them for anything else and most likely wouldn't. They are convenient for golf cart tires since they are golf cart accessible.

Default Radial vs Bias Ply golf cart tires

Has anyone purchased radial tires to replace the bias ply tires that are on most carts. Do you find them quieter and smoother riding? We have two golf carts, one with bias ply and one with radial. The one with radial tires is quieter and smoother but not certain it's the tires.

I used Tire Choice in Colony Plaza. They did a good job. Only complaint was the amount of wait time involved. Other than that I’m happy.

I would think the definition of “best place” is where to go that’s convenient and reasonably priced.
I am a short cart drive to the Colony Plaza and went to the tire store at the end near the 7-Eleven and was quoted $80 per tire installed. It’s the lowest out of three quotes I got and the closest. If my tire was flat and in my garage, I would call the Tire guy. We all need “a guy”.

I shopped everywhere. Found the best deal at The Villages Golf Cart Stores. 10 inch Loadstar tires at a grand total of $320.00 for 4 tires installed, taxes, everything. All others were a good $80-$100 more. Dropped my cart off and got a loaner for the day. Easy Peezy

I found it most economical to purchase online. I think I used Premium Golf Cart Accessories For EZGO, Club Car, and Yamaha Carts — GOLFCARTSTUFF.COM™. Then had the Tire Guy install. I heard he is the only guy in TV that makes house calls for tire installation.(352) 434-2254

Be sure to get RADIAL tires. They’re a bit more expensive, but oh the softer ride!

Definitely recommend Andy Robinson, The Tire Guy.. I have used him for mounting of two sets of tires on 12” rims and a front end alignment. He also sells “normal sized”
tires at a reasonable cost, although he did not have my 23x10-12 size.

The Tire Guy, 352-434-2254. He is entirely mobile, comes to the house, fixes or replaces tires on the spot. Great service, on time, courteous and friendly, fair prices. No problems, no issues.
