Bend, OR — Les Schwab Tire Centers, one of the leading independent tire dealers in the United States, is opening its first store in Lehi, at 3451 North 1200 East, on Sept. 10. The opening comes after extensive updates to the facility following the company’s acquisition of the My Tire Guys store that previously occupied the space.

This will be Les Schwab Tires’ first Lehi location, and store manager Chris Hoskins is excited to bring the company’s great service to the community.

“We know we can make a positive difference in the Lehi area,” Hoskins said. “Our commitment to service extends beyond our customers – we’re also dedicated to supporting our employees and neighbors, and we look forward to doing that here in Lehi.”

Les Schwab Tires has a 70-year history of earning customers’ trust throughout the western United States and is top-ranked nationwide by Forbes for customer service in auto repair and maintenance.

Because safety on the road depends on more than just great tires, every time Les Schwab touches customers’ tires, its people take the time to check the surrounding components to make sure everything is squared away and it’s safe to be on the road. Offerings include brake services, alignment, shocks, oil changes, custom wheels, batteries and more. The Lehi store will feature 4 back to back bays.

The Lehi store will employ 14 people. Les Schwab Tires offered positions to all My Tire Guys employees and is consistently on the lookout for local talent. The company offers a competitive package of pay and benefits designed to reward employees’ hard work. Les Schwab Tires established its first profit-share program in 1954, and today it shares about half its profits with employees through generous health benefits, bonuses and retirement programs. It also offers growth opportunities for everyone with comprehensive training programs and enables employees to build and advance in their careers.

Grand opening celebrations for the Lehi store, featuring food, prizes and plenty of fun for the whole community, are planned for Oct. 4 and 5.
