Jose MartinezLast summer, as I sped down I-10, I ended up having to pull over because of a flat tire. I pulled over, sweat dripping in the 105-degree heat, only to realize my spare was useless.
Frantic, I Googled the nearest tire shop—a decision I quickly came to regret. The shop’s so-called “30-minute fix” was basically them trying to overcharge me for tires that were of worse quality than my current ones.
That experience pushed me—and the rest of the El Paso Insider team—to find reliable tire shops that actually do right by drivers. Here are the ones we found that offer fair prices and honest service!
How much does it cost to get tires in El Paso?
It costs at least $50 to get a tire in El Paso. This is just an estimate. The actual price will depend on the tires you buy and which shop you go to.
1. Martin Tire Company
Address: 1341 Lee Trevino Dr
Contact Details: +19155926496
Operating Hours:
- Monday to Friday – 7 AM to 6 PM
- Saturday – 7 AM to 5 PM
Martin Tire stood out for its clear communication, trusted guidance, and the expert care provided to customers every step of the way.
We really appreciate their Courtesy Digital Vehicle Inspection. Their detailed video reports flag any issues customers might’ve overlooked, including uneven tire wear.
The staff are also very knowledgeable. They don’t try to upsell. Instead, they show customers all their tire options and explain each.
One buyer who needed Michelin Defender replacements shared that the staff walked him through tread depth comparisons and seasonal trade-offs. They even suggested a cheaper Continental alternative, in case of price limitations.
We love all their free perks like free rotations with balance services, lifetime flat repairs for purchased tires, and TPMS checks that take the guesswork out of pressure warnings.
Some drivers we talked to also raved about the quick turnaround. Alignment and rotation often only take 45 minutes, keeping customers in and out in no time.
The only hiccup? Sometimes customers experience 30-minute delays in the mornings.
Best tire shop in El Paso
“Best tire shop in El Paso. They cared about a critical appointment I had to attend and changed 4 tires and did an alignment in under 2 hours. They gave a military discount and arranged and paid for my UBER home and back. I was blown away by their service and care. I am forever their customer.”

It was sorted out quickly
“Came in later in the afternoon with a piece of metal in my tire. Bryan was very courteous and attended me right away. After some initial confusion about the purchase date of my tires it was sorted out quickly. Tire was assessed and I was on my way within 45 minutes. Will continue to patronize Martin Tire for their excellent customer service.”

2. RAW Wheels & Tires
Address: 830 N Zaragoza Rd
Contact Details: +19158728676
Operating Hours:
- Monday to Friday – 10:30 AM to 7 PM
- Saturday – 9 AM to 6 PM
RAW’s rent-to-own tire program stands out for its accessibility—starting with just $20 and stretching payments over 82 weeks.
What hooked us? The no-penalty return policy. If the tires don’t meet buyers’ needs or budget, they can drop them off and walk away—no hassle.
One customer told us they snagged a set of Goodyear Assurance WeatherReady tires, praising how the $20 down payment allowed them to prioritize repairs without draining their savings.
But we do suggest keeping an eye on autopay. Several customers reported to us that they had been accidentally double-charged due to system glitches. It was refunded quickly, but it was still annoying.
That aside, we love how RAW’s online inventory simplifies decision-making. Clear photos, specs, and filters let people quickly compare options like the NEXEN N5000 Platinum All-Season tires with models like Michelin Defenders.
We also love how the freebies pile up: lug nuts, valve stems, wheel locks, and even lifetime rotations and flat repairs.
Drivers love that RAW handles installation at any nearest partner shop—no extra fees at all. As long as customers are in their system for having purchased tires, they can enjoy all the free perks.
They have a 4.9 rating for a reason:)
“Was recommended to this location by a friend. Walked in the place and Jamie was the employee that took real good care of me. Great guy and will give you the best advice and help you get what you want.They have a 4.9 rating for a reason:) Appreciate the new wheels for my mustang gt.”

3. Tops Tire & Wheel
Address: 1100 Texas Ave
Contact Details: +19155446008
Operating Hours:
- Monday to Friday – 8 AM to 5 PM
- Saturday – 8 AM to 4 PM
Tops Tire & Wheel has a selection that feels endless—Michelin, Continental, and General Tire line their shelves. They cater to sedans, SUVs, and work trucks alike.
Online, their search tool simplifies the tire hunt. Entering a Jeep’s license plate instantly pulled up the Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6, complete with photos of its zigzag rain grooves and other features.
What sets them apart isn’t just the inventory, though; it’s their efficient repair process. After a roofing nail gashed a customer’s Subaru Outback tire, Tops used a hybrid plug-and-patch technique to seal the inner liner and outer tread.
We also think it’s neat that their computerized system accurately pinpoints the source of the uneven weight distribution. This allows them to balance tires more accurately, helping customers get more mileage out of their tires.
That said, some customers side-eyed their rotation fees. A Honda Civic owner felt blindsided after paying nearly double what she’d paid elsewhere.
Knew exactly whet I needed
“Awesome service, Fernando was very knowledgeable and knew exactly whet I needed. Dropped off my truck and got two tires replaced, alignment, balancing and new Tpsm installed. Quick and a at an excellent price.”

The best tires with the best warranty
“OUTSTANDING service! They are honest and fair. I went to five other tire shops and they all tried to upsell and use fear as a tactic. But not the people at Tops, especially the manager, Mike, who was great about getting the best tires with the best warranty for the lowest price. Take your business to Tops and you’ll be equally impressed.”

4. EL Paso Tire Mart & Co
Address: 1160 Airway Blvd
Contact Details: +19152336878
Operating Hours:
- Monday to Friday – 9 AM to 7 PM
- Saturday – 9 AM to 6 PM
El Paso Tire Mart wins points for having a team that teaches customers about their tires.
While testing their online search tool (which lets you filter by terrain type and warranty), we struggled to choose between the Cooper Discoverer rugged terrain and a budget all-season option.
A quick call to their shop connected us with a rep who asked detailed questions about our driving habits and steered us toward the Discoverers’ reinforced sidewalls.
The shop’s nitrogen fill service also earned lots of praise from customers. One customer’s Honda Odyssey maintained near-perfect PSI for six months after switching—proving the gas’s slow-leak reputation.
Their repair is comprehensive too. When we brought in a tire punctured by a roofing nail, their repair didn’t stop at a plug. They dismounted the wheel, applied an internal sealant, and even scrubbed the rim’s corrosion to prevent future air loss.
That said, their online scheduling can be unreliable. A few customers reported booking rotation appointments online, only to arrive and find that no record of their slot existed. One customer waited 45 minutes before a frazzled manager squeezed them in.
This is where i go for all my wheel tire suspension needs
“First time in purchased from here got a leveling kit, wheels , tires , running boards.

Extremely affordable
“I’ve brought both my car and my wife’s in on separate occasions to get the brake pads replaced, and both times were excellent experiences. They’re extremely affordable, and I really appreciate that they offer discounts for teachers. Great service, fair pricing, and a team that clearly values their community. Highly recommend!”

5. The X-Perts Tire And Auto Repair
Address: 7547 Alameda Ave
Contact Details: +19154079019
Operating Hours: Monday to Saturday – 8 AM to 8 PM
The X-Perts Tire and Auto Repair wins trust by blending expertise with clear communication. Key move? Their no-upsell style.
One driver came in worried about his Honda Civic’s uneven tread. Instead of pushing for new tires, X-Pert’s technician used a laser gauge to show that an alignment could be better.
For customers who end up needing complete tire replacements, the staff takes the time to show customers the wear patterns instead of ushering them to the checkout counter.
It’s also impressive how quick and capable they are with repairs. One customer came in with a Ford F-150’s shredded sidewall—a job most shops would reject—but X-Pert’s techs used reinforced patches to save the driver time and money.
For maintenance, their rotation includes torque-checking lug nuts. Many drivers we talked to also swear by the shop’s nitrogen fills.
The only downside? Wait times. Those who didn’t have an appointment told us they had to wait up to 2 hours.
Always takes care of me
“Fernie always takes care of me, from flat tires to buying new ones and widening the white walls, I am telling you he will go an extra mile to help you out”
