Just got a set of Tiger paws put on my E53 X5 and it's riding and driving better than it ever has since I've owned it. Very fair pricing and dependable service. I appreciate being taken care of

They got me right in the door as soon as I drove in. Put on a new tire for a price that made me feel like I was stealing from them. Most importantly they put the spare back and all the tools in the right spots. I never would've figured that out. The manager Alex and his crew are top notch!

Alex and the crew at Pete's got me back on the road after blowing a tire on i90. Quick, friendly service without hassle!

Alex is a genuine 'people person'. No put ons. He's the real deal. He took time to listen to my problem, had his people immediately address that problem and we went from there. I will never ever go to another tire company again. All because of Alex Pabon!
