When last I checked Matt was whining about the dark days in early summer (me too actually).  Now what?  It’s HOT out here.  How’s your AC working in your car?  Not quite as cool as you remember?  Are you finding your self driving faster with the windows down just to keep from melting?  We can help!  We work on all makes and models – even the older cars with the older R-12 refrigerant systems.  Call me today!

Now that the weather has improved a little it’s time to wash the car and polish those wheels!  We offer a HUGE selection of custom wheels if you need to dress up your car, truck or SUV.  Mention you read this on our blog and get free mounting with any custom wheel purchase – that’s a saving of up to $100!

I think it’s time.  Your tires will thank you (and last longer) and the City road crews will thank you (and roads will last longer) .

Driving on bare pavement with studded tires really doesn’t do much anyhow.  Why not schedule a time this week to get it done?

Matt, Manager In West Olympia

I want to introduce myself, I’m Matt the new manager at the Good Neighbor Tire & Auto store in west Olympia.

While I’ve been here a few months now I’ve been pretty caught up in setting things up like I want them.  We sold our place in Renton and my wife, son and I moved here to be closer to work – and also my favorite fishing and hunting spots.  I’ve got family down here so I’m no stranger to Olympia!  Stop by and say hello when you’re in the area – we can swap fish stories.

Just because it’s a little warmer around here (compared with most of the country) it’s not time yet to relax just yet.  Car starting a little slower than normal?  Windshield wipers streaking?  Heater not quite as hot as it used to be?

Maybe it’s time to have our Winter Maintenance Service!  Call or stop in today and we’ll make sure everything is tip-top.

Now with the weather starting to turn, it’s time to take a look at your lights and wiper blades.  It’s vital that you be able to see and be seen when driving along these dark wet roads.  We stofk a complete selection of lighting products  – even the new Slyvania Ecobright headlight bulbs that can actually save you gas!

Wipers?  We got those too.  From the basic Bosch inserts to the new Goodyear beam style blades – we’ve got you covered.

It’s July and it’s hot out there!  Did you know that your AC and the defroster you use to clear the windows in the fall and winter are interrelated?  Well they are.  The AC starts when you first turn on the defroster and acts as a dehumidifier – clearing the windows quickly and more efficiently.  It’s important that all these heating, ventilation and air conditioning subsystems work together.  If your AC or defroster is on the fritz – give me a call and we’ll get you going fast.

Pot Holes, Pot Holes, Pot Holes EVERYWHERE!  The roads around here have sure seen better days.  All those bumps and dips are pretty tough on your tires, wheels and wheel alignment.  A lot of our customers have mentioned their cars are shaking a little more than usual and finding it a little harder to keep everything running straight and true while riding down the freeway.  It’s really a good idea to have your tires and suspension checked twice a year.  Our computerized wheel balance service can revitalize that ride you like and our wheel alignment service keeps everything lined up right.

Then the only Shakin’ Goin’ On will be Elvis on the radio.

Now that it looks like the ice and snow is finally behind us it’s time to think about spring time driving.  How are your wiper blades?  Streaking and squeeking?  Your wipers really take a beating during those frosty mornings.  Why not stop in today and have a new pair installed?

Also, while you’re in – take a look at the Aquapel windshield treatment.  It’s amazing how much better you can see and how much better your windshield clears once it’s been treated.  Mention you read about Aquapel here and we’ll give you $5 off the treatment service.
