I have been to a lot of tire & wheel shops. This place was by far the most respectful shop. They have excellent customer service. Damion was the guy helping me and done a great job. While I was there I talked with the owner. He treated you as a normal person compared to other owners who normally put their noses up. I drove 1.5 hrs for this place to get new tires on my truck. This is the first tire shop that hasn't scratched my wheels.

Repeat customer here. 1st Chance takes pride in their work. From lift kits to wheels and tires, I do not have one complaint over the 6 years I've been doing business with them. This last visit, I had to take my old wheels and tires back with me. I could tell the tires had been cleaned and then put into plastic bags prior to loading them into the Jeep. What other shops would provide that kind of care in Middle TN?

I came in to get an alignment yet my vehicle was "ready for pick up" without the actual alignment. Instead, they notified me saying that my rack and pinion were leaking yet it was in perfect condition before. They have scammed me and damaged my vehicle. DO NOT COME HERE. Edited: I just found out that the workers also did not tighten the tidrods after telling him MULTIPLE TIMES. I wish I could give a 0/5 stars

When my local shop closed I decided to give these gentleman a chance. Came highly recommended by a competitor. All I can say is very awesome place. Brought in two wheels to replace two broken wheels and needed new tires and an alignment. Very quality service and kept me updated. Highly recommend! Great job Chris and staff!
