I'd like to replace worn-out tires on an SUV with another set of 4 tires that are lightly used. Looking for a place in Baton Rouge that will do this work, as I've already been turned away by one or two of the "big-name" businesses.

I'm in the Bluebonnet Blvd/Perkins Road area.

Thanks!

I had this done at the tire place on Florida. Kind of near Ronnies. I can't remember the name of the place.

Flea market sounds like a good idea. They sell used tires in the little place on the south end of the parking lot. I'm sure they'll take your money. Probably on Sunday too.

I've had some new ones that I bought from Tire Rack at Highland Care Car. No issues.

Check the age of the tires. Rubber starts to dry rot at around 7 years. The last 4 numbers of the DOT number will tell you the age. Example: 3514 would mean the 35th week of 2014.

the goodyear on the corner of perkins and siegen did some for me a few years back. But as someone mentioned the guys in the parking of of the flea market will do it. The little old lady who runs it is really nice.
