Tire Shop Recommendation, TN, KY, OH

[FJReady]

I expect to be coming through the Tennessee, Kentucky, maybe SE Ohio region at the tail end of a cross country adventure in late September. I expect that I will be very close to needed a rear tire by then and would like to have a little local knowledge for reputable tire sellers/installers beforehand to help out with my route planning. If any of you can recommend a good shop in this part of the country, I'd greatly appreciate it. Equally important is if you've had a bad experience anywhere, that could be helpful too.

Thanks, Russ

Justin (Justnick1) lives in Coolville OH on the south edge of SEO (30 min from Marietta) . He does alot of work on bikes for guys and has a pneumatic tire changer. I don't want to speak for him but drop shipping a tire to his place would be the most economical solution....

I'd be happy to help you out. I usually have a few tires in stock at my house, but you're also welcome to have whatever tire you want drop shipped to my house.

I used Midstate in Cookeville for a YES repair. Nice guys and no issues (well, they did forget to put the wire straps back around the wires).

I'd use them again if I ever needed a dealer repair.

I'm in Lafayette TN and have a NoMar, you're welcome to have a tire shipped to my place for a tire change.

Thanks everyone for the info and generous offers to help. I'll be writing this all down in my little travel notebook. Nice to have that confidence.

Just In case you end up by me, I'm in Asheville NC, and also have a tire changing setup.
