Default Tire transformation price increase

I have had several people contact me wanting quotes for the tire transformation process that we do. Unfortunately the world being what it has become has caused us to have to raise our prices. I am sorry for this but it is out of my control.

Not at all surprising. I’m in the commercial construction building business. Cost on everything we touch has risen way over core inflation rates with steel 125% and lumber 250%. Fuel surcharges now added to every delivery.
You either raise prices, give your work away or take losses on every job.
Nobody in their right mind will complain to you especially with such a specialty niche product. While I don’t have your tires I’m grateful you and so many other shops, suppliers and specialty vendors cater to us. We are lucky to have you!

Is that the only 'transformation' that you guys do? By that I mean do you also do the Billboards lettering?

We can do any graphic that you would like, including Firestone graphics. The graphic in the photo is correct for 1960s period GOODYEAR Blue Streak Sports Car Specials and Stock Car Specials as used on Cobras. I will add that we can do any Brand tire manufacturer in the process.
