Tweeker Tire

They're all over Las Vegas. They operate 24 hours a day. They will fix the shit out of your tires.


Welcome to the tweeker tire shops.

The first time I rolled into one, I had no idea what to expect. Tweeker tire shops are run exclusively by Mexicans, and I was wondering if I needed to perform some secret handshake embedded deep in cultural memory in order not to get a tire forged from shit. Let me tell you something: in Las Vegas, the Mexicans are either the friendliest, most wonderful people you can possibly know, or else they will piss on you with a gun full of bullets.

Instead, they took off my tire and did some crazy magic to it, in a massive pool of water, making it magically newer than new. I have no idea how they manage to run 24 hours a day (METH) or how they can fix your shit so fast (METH), but I wish they would branch out. 24 hour window repair; sandwich making; corpse reburial (programmers get lonely too). These guys are fantastic. Good game.
