Unless you've got stuff already to put on or you need a tint don't go to USA Motorsports. It's a crappy place and they guys aren't much help. But they are on West Ave between 410 and I-10 if you want to know.

J&Y is near downtown on Zarzamora street I think. Never been there though

Maximum Velocity - if that's the one I think it is then it is on San Pedro south of North Star Mall. There are a few places on San Pedro that have a lot of good stuff.

Altas Tires has some stuff for Civics and they are on San Pedro.

Street Strip - I don't know where that is.

J & Y is one of the best. It's on the South Side, near I-35 and like Theo and Malone. They gots lots of goodies. Run by a whole bunch of Asian Dudes.

Street Strip used to be by my house off of Bandera but they have since moved. Have'nt heard to much good stuff about them either. I think your thinking of that other shop on Austin Hwy over there by Windsor Mall area. That's another good one, but I have no clue as to what it's called.

look up Rodriguez Tire shop but make sure you don't drive around too much in that neighborhood. also there is this new place called Lets rolls. haven't seen prices but the rims look pretty good. also, as QuickSilver mentioned, J&Y has some rims and even complete rim and tire sets. you may even get lucky at certain Discount tire companies. call around and see if they have any Specials for 17 or 18" rims with tires.

Let's Roll is over here by Lackland. It's off 90 and Military Dr. Looks alright. There are a bunch of Tire shops down San Pedro near North Star Mall inside Loop 410. The Maxx, Espino's (I think that's their name), and Gills.

Gills is good but if you don't watch yourself, you will get your eyes poked.

you can work both Gil and Espino for lower prices. I just bought all my stuff from Gil's and everything went real smooth. He'll get you any tire you want too, just don't listen to his ****, if you want a certain tire, just get him to get it!

That Espino dude is rollin in money. He drives an 03 Range Rover and the wife has an 03 Navigator. Nice!

Atlas Auto on San Pedro also has some good wheels and tires.


Gil and Espino wanted $950 for my wheels and tires. I told him I'd give him $900 out the door and both said okay! That was with Nitto tires and not the unknown Federals that they offer with their packages.
