When Wheel City Motors was established in 2007 in Asheville, NC, Dewayne Stephens and his crew worked hard to make the certified pre-owned dealership a success. But as the store started to grow, they saw another opportunity.
"We were constantly sending out vehicles for lift kits," says Dewayne. "So We asked ourselves, ‘Why not just do it ourselves?’”
So Dewayne and his longtime friend Jeff Stevens opened up a new business on Patton Avenue – Wheel City Tire and Alignment, a one-stop shop for lift kits, vehicle customization, alignments, wheels and tires.
“We hired the best in the business, and we bought the best equipment.”
Wheel City Tire and Alignment opened its doors in May of 2015, and it quickly became popular among local car dealerships and customers due to the quality of their workmanship. Every piece of equipment was bought brand new, state-of-the-art, and improvements are constantly being made to keep up with today’s industry standards.
The store handles state inspections, front end alignments, brake jobs, front end work, all wheel and tire applications, lift kits and leveling/lowering kits, accessories, and full customization.
