The Right Tire Shop for You

For all the miles you might drive in a week, month or year, you won’t get far without good tires. The correct size, proper inflation and sufficient tread will have you driving smoothly and safely, while providing the traction you need to come to a stop in wet or dry conditions. When it’s time for new tires or repairs to your existing ones, an experienced tire shop is important. Only the most capable professionals will deliver precise tire work to keep you driving safely. The right tire shop for you is Specialized Auto, operating in two locations, Santa Cruz and Watsonville.
