Prime Tire & Auto Repair

Welcome to Prime Tire & Auto Repair in St. George. Todd Evans and Landon Hunt met working side by side at a local repair shop and spent decades in the tire and auto trade together. When that shop closed, they were left without many options, so they bought a rundown old gas station and converted it into a full-service garage themselves.

That is a harder way to start a business than most, and it shows in how the place runs. What they probably did not plan on is the reputation it has built among people who do not live here.

The Shop Travelers Get Sent To

St. George sits on the road to Zion, which means a steady flow of fifth wheels, travel trailers, and towed vehicles moving through town, plus a large population of people who live in them full time. When something fails on that kind of rig, it fails a long way from a regular mechanic.

Prime Tire has quietly become the number people are given. Reviews from out of state describe the same sequence often enough to be a pattern: something breaks, several shops cannot help or do not answer, someone recommends calling Todd, and the problem gets solved that day. A family on vacation with a broken fifth-wheel suspension. A brake controller that quit somewhere in Utah. Dually valve stems that needed replacing before anyone could get back on the road.

They are also a certified installer for etrailer, which is why the towing work runs deeper than most general shops. Flat tow systems, tow plates, brake controllers, and the electrical work that makes all of it talk to the vehicle properly.

Tires, and Everything Else

The everyday side of the business is what the name says. Tires and wheel service, oil changes, brake and suspension work, fluid checks and flushes, battery and electrical diagnostics, and multi-point inspections. Air conditioning matters more here than it does in most places, and they do that too.

Southern Utah is hard on vehicles in specific ways. Heat degrades tires faster, hills work brakes harder, and anything towing a load feels both. A shop that spends its time on trailer tires and RV suspension develops a useful instinct for what heat and weight actually do to a vehicle.

What People Say

The shop holds a 4.9 rating across 99 Google reviews, which is high for any trade and unusual for auto repair specifically. Reading through them, the pattern is less about mechanical skill than about the parts of the transaction people usually dread. Quotes that hold. Work ready when promised. Recommendations that fit the vehicle rather than the invoice.

Both partners work on the cars themselves rather than running a front counter from a distance, and both come up by name in reviews. Customers deal with the same two people who built the place.

Getting There

Prime Tire is on St. George Boulevard and runs Monday through Friday, opening at eight and closing at five, with weekends off. They have a track record of fitting in urgent work, particularly for people passing through who do not have the luxury of coming back Tuesday.
