Dave the Tire Guy opens new, bigger shop

EPHRATA — Dave the Tire Guy has expanded with a new shop and improved equipment offerings. “We’ve got a 7,000-square-foot shop, and then we’ve got another 7,000-square-foot storage and alignment area,” said Dave Pierce, better known as Dave the Tire Guy. “Inside our shop, we’ve got eight two-post lifts, a couple of tire machines, a couple of balancers and then we’ve got a nice 25-by-100 drive-thru tire bay.” Dave the Tire Guy’s new location, which opened in May, is right at the junction of state routes 28 and 283 south of Ephrata. It’s the first business in an industrial park that’s springing up at that location, owned by Tommer Construction.
