Tire trouble in The Highlands Community, and what happens next

Somewhere told you it cannot be repaired. A puncture through the tread area gets patched from the inside. A cut in the sidewall or the shoulder does not, and neither does a tire that has already been run flat. We show you which one you have, on your own tire.
Two of them are down to the wear bars. We measure all four in 32nds, tell you which clear the Texas inspection minimum and which are close to it, and fit only what actually needs fitting. You get the numbers and you decide.
The spare has never been down from under the truck. A spare with no air in it is not a spare. We check its pressure, read the date moulded into its sidewall and make sure the jack and the tools are actually there.
The trailer has been parked since last season. Trailer tires age out on a date long before they wear out, and that date is moulded into the sidewall. We check every position, the pressures and the codes, before it gets loaded.
You want a different look without wrecking the ride. Give us the size off the sidewall and we work out what else fits that wheel, what it does to the speedometer and what it does to the ride. The size reader below does the first half in a second.
It is running on the little spare and you are still driving it. A compact spare is a get-home tire, not a tire. Bring it in and we handle it: we repair the original if it can be repaired, replace it if it cannot, and put every wheel back in its right position.
The pressures read different every time you check them. Air moves about one pound for every ten degrees the temperature swings, and a Texas summer swings hard. We set them cold to the door placard and look for the slow leak underneath the swing.
The work vans leave Spring every morning and nobody tracks the tires. We check every position on every unit, write down the depths and pressures and tell you which ones are close, before a driver is sitting on the shoulder with a load on.

What we put on the vehicle in The Highlands Community

All season, for the daily run. What most cars and crossovers around Spring are running: quiet, long wearing and predictable when it comes down hard on Interstate 45.
All terrain, truck and SUV. A chunkier tread for pickups that spend part of the week off the pavement, on caliche or on a site road, and the rest of it on the highway.
Light truck, load range E. For towing and hauling. The number that matters is the load rating on the sidewall, not the size, and we match it to what the vehicle actually pulls.
Trailer tires (ST). Trailer tires are built to a different standard than car tires and they age out on a date. Boat, utility, equipment and travel trailers.
Commercial van and box truck. Higher load ratings and stiffer sidewalls for the vans and box trucks that leave Spring loaded every morning.
Performance and low profile. Wider sections and shorter sidewalls, where the balance has to be exact because you feel every gram in the wheel.
Run flat replacement. If the vehicle came on run flats we fit run flats. If you would rather go back to a conventional tire, we tell you plainly what changes and what you need to carry.

Yes. That light is the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), the sensors that report each tire's pressure to the dash. It is either a genuinely low tire or a sensor whose battery has run out. We read all four, fix whichever it is, and reset the system so it stays off.

How do I know if my tires will pass a Texas inspection?

Texas requires at least 2/32 of an inch of tread, and it is measured at the worst point on the tire, not the average across it. We measure all four and tell you exactly where each one stands before you go and spend the money on the inspection.
