About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a regular asked the cashier, ‘Why does it always take forever for my tires to be checked here?’ The cashier just smiled and replied, ‘Because every tire has its own unique story.’ A few days later, an impatient delivery driver approached the counter and growled, 'My tires are telling me something, but I don’t have time to listen!' The cashier winked and said, 'That’s because they’re late for their own appointment.' Everyone laughed, and the tires were changed without any complaints.
2. A little boy followed his dad into Costco’s Tire Center one Saturday morning. As they approached the air pump station, he stopped dead in his tracks and pointed excitedly. ‘Dad, look!’ he whispered. ‘The tire is talking to us!’ His father smiled down at him, shook his head gently. ‘No son, that’s just a tire,’ he said softly. The boy looked puzzled for a moment before breaking out into a wide grin. ‘Then why does it keep saying “Air me up!” every time I put air in?’
3. At dawn, a delivery driver noticed something strange: every time he parked near Costco Tire Center, his truck's engine would inexplicably start humming like an old vinyl record player. Curious, he followed the sound one morning and found himself standing in front of an old, abandoned jukebox inside the tire center. Turns out, someone had accidentally left it plugged in overnight. From then on, whenever anyone needed tires, they’d hear that familiar scratchy tune playing softly in the background—like a friendly greeting from the neighborhood’s most eccentric resident.
4. At dawn, a delivery driver noticed something strange: every time he parked near Costco's Tire Center, an old tire would mysteriously appear in his car's rearview mirror. Confused and amused, the driver mentioned it to a nearby neighbor who laughed and said, ‘Oh that’s just Mr. Johnson down the street. He loves practical jokes!’ Turns out, Mr. Johnson had been secretly placing tires as pranks for years—everyone except the poor delivery guy knew it was him.
