Southern Tire Mart at Pilot

Had a flat tire on November 3rd, 2025 and was extremely stressed trying to find a repair shop that was still open. It was almost 10:30 PM when I gave a quick call to Southern Tire Mart at the Pilot. They told me to come over, and I barely made it there about four minutes before closing time. Despite being so close to closing, they didn’t hesitate for a second. They immediately started fixing my tire and helped me get back on the road. It’s the first time I’ve experienced someone willingly helping after hours instead of heading home, and I am truly grateful. If they hadn’t helped me, I would have been stuck there the whole night because nothing else was open in that area. The two gentlemen who assisted me showed real humanity…..proof that good people still exist in this world. If the shop

We were traveling in our RV with 3 axle trailer and had a flat tire.pulled into southern tire in Emporia KS and were taken care of promptly. Changed our tire and inspected the others and ended up replacing 3 tires. Our experience was exceptional, the staff was friendly. Pricing was very fair.

This place is amazing! If I could give 10 stars I would. I had a long road trip home when my tire pressure dropped and light went on. Pulled in on a Sunday and they were open! Got us in, fixed, and back on the road super quick. These guys were great and I'm so grateful for their quick and super service! Thank you!!!!!

To the 3 Stooges : We went there to get a tire patched and they got us in right away, patched the tire in less than 30 min after finding not one, but two nails/ screws! They were all kind, lighthearted and some of the best mechanic guys I’ve encountered in Emporia! Def recommend going there for any of your car/ truck needs:) Thank you 3 stooges!

I needed a battery replacement done on my car however the battery was in a hard to reach area and no mechanics were open on a Saturday afternoon. Southern Tire Mart so they don't usually do that type of work but they agreed to install my battery. Cecil installed it and then they told me they wouldn't even charge me for the work. 10/10 would recommend this place l!
