Tire Discounters

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd on the loading dock—a tire marked with an old-school telephone number and the words ‘Free Donuts.’ Curious, he called it, and sure enough, someone answered: ‘Hey there, come on in for some fresh baked goods!’ Turns out, it was just a prank from a neighbor who loved donuts as much as everyone else. From then on, whenever anyone needed tires or free pastries, they’d visit Tire Discounters—because sometimes life’s best deals are found outside the usual places.

2. At dawn, when most tires were sleeping in warehouses, an early bird delivery driver spotted something peculiar: a tire with a note reading ‘Return to sender—address unknown.’ Curious, he picked up the tire and took it home. For weeks, neighbors watched as he installed it on his lawnmower, then bicycle, even on his kid’s tricycle. Eventually, someone recognized the tire from their car and returned it. The driver laughed, saying, ‘Now I know why they say “tires can last forever”!’

3. Last week, a regular asked the clerk at Tire Discounters if they ever had days when tires seemed to disappear from the shelves faster than customers could buy them. The clerk smiled mysteriously and whispered, ‘Oh, yes—those are our secret “blackout” tires.’ A delivery driver overheard and laughed, saying, ‘I thought it was just my bad memory!’ The regular nodded knowingly, finishing his coffee and leaving with a new set of tires.

4. At closing time, the manager of Tire Discounters locked up and left. But not before he heard a strange voice whispering from behind the counter: ‘Don’t forget to check my tread today.’ The next morning, the manager found himself checking every tire’s tread obsessively—even his own car’s. Turned out it was just an old delivery driver joking around. The store continued its usual routine, but now everyone made sure to say hello to the mysterious voice, knowing it brought good luck.
