    There continue to be new and varied versions of mobile vehicle service. None (maybe with the exception of windshield service) has been a raging success. Most vanish or end up being small niche markets. It has to be certain type of customer. Location of where work can be performed is limited. Weather is a huge factor. They will be just one more player in the tire business. Most people will still get their tires at some type of service facility – and lately more and more customers are buying tires at a full service facility of some kind instead of a tire specialty store. The more places the customer has to to to get their car serviced, the more hassle. The more different peope the customer has to deal with, the more hassle. Don’t sell your tire changer just yet. 🙂
