New Maryland drivers, about 15 minutes away.

New Maryland is the closest of the communities around Fredericton to our door — roughly 12 km, a straight run north on Route 101. For most of the village that's a shorter trip than crossing the city would be, which makes a walk-in genuinely practical rather than something you plan a morning around.

It's also overwhelmingly a commuter village: the daily pattern is south-to-north into Fredericton and back. That means we're already on your route, and a changeover that takes 10–20 minutes while you wait costs you very little of the day.

Because it's close, New Maryland drivers are the ones most likely to just drive in for the small things — a pressure check before a cold snap, a repair on a slow leak, a rotation. Those are quick jobs and we'd rather you came in for them early than waited until they became expensive ones.

Prices are the same whoever you are and wherever you drove in from — the full price list is published here.

The Route 101 corridor between New Maryland and Fredericton climbs and descends — the run into the city is not the flat drive that, say, the river road is. Grades change what tires need to do. Pulling away uphill on a cold morning asks for traction, and coming down a grade on a slick surface asks for braking grip, which is the thing all-season tires give up first as the temperature drops.

The cold-compound point is the one worth internalising: a winter tire's advantage isn't only its tread pattern but a rubber compound that stays flexible below roughly 7°C, where an all-season progressively hardens. On a graded, frosty commute that difference shows up as stopping distance.

The other local reality is that frost and black ice settle on grades and shaded stretches before they appear anywhere else, often when the main roads still look completely clear.

These are the real turnaround times, not padded estimates. Every changeover includes balancing.

• On-Rim Tire Change — 10–20 minutes
• On-Rim Tire Change + Balancing — 15–30 minutes
• Off-Rim Tire Change — 20–40 minutes
• Tire Balancing — 15–30 minutes
• Tire Rotation — 10–20 minutes
• Tire Repair — 15–20 minutes
• TPMS Sensor Install — 10–25 minutes

No appointment required — walk-ins are welcome every day we're open. Booking simply guarantees the time, which is worth doing during the October and April changeover peaks.
