Boulevard Tire & Service, 722 Southwest Blvd
Fifteen tire brands on the shelf and a full mechanical shop behind them, at the same address on Southwest Boulevard since 1994. Same day estimates, and a one year warranty on parts and labor.
01 Southwest Boulevard, Kansas City
Blake Breeden bought the shop in 2009 and still works the counter.
Michelin through Yokohama, and anything else usually the same day.
Quoted the same day you bring it in, before anything is touched.
02 / Inside 722 Southwest Blvd
Not a stock photo on the page. This is the lot you pull into, the bay your car goes up in, and the room you wait in while it does.
Bay 01 / Lift
One drive through bay off the lot, with the roll up open most of the day. Alignment work, brakes and tire fitting all happen in here, which is why a tire problem that turns out to be a suspension problem does not need to go anywhere else.
Room 02 / Lounge
Yellow walls, an arcade cabinet that still works, a television and enough seats that you are not standing. A visitor from out of town wrote that they were fixed up and gone in under two hours, and called this the nice part.
Desk 03 / Counter
Where the estimate gets written and where Blake usually is. Same day estimates, and a phone call before anything beyond the quote gets touched. Eric Borisouth runs the shop day to day as general manager.
Lot 04 / Drop
Park anywhere on the front. There is a night drop if you need to leave the car outside Monday to Friday, eight to six, and pickup and delivery if you cannot get it here at all.
03 / What we handle
Boulevard Tire has been both halves of the job since 1994. Pick the one you came for, or call and describe the noise and we will tell you which it is.
Station 01
Fifteen brands stocked and almost anything else the same day, mounted and balanced with new rubber valve stems. The Total Tire Protection Plan is 27.50 dollars, a 50 dollar value, and covers rotation for the life of the tire and road hazard.
Tires and fittingStation 02
The two we never rush. Brake repair, four wheel alignment on the rack, steering and suspension, and the four wheel drive systems that make a pull feel like a tire fault when it is not one.
Stopping and steering
Station 03
Engine diagnostics and performance, transmission work, cooling systems, belts and hoses, starting, charging and batteries, climate control and electrical faults. Diagnosed before it is quoted, quoted before it is touched.
Under the hood
Station 04
Commercial safety inspections, preventive maintenance and tires up to 19.5 inches, with detailed records kept per vehicle that you can ask to see. ARI, Element and Enterprise accounts welcome.
Fleet work03b / Fleets
Service and delivery vans, rental fleets, utility and corporate cars, hospital, casino, municipal, construction and sanitation vehicles. Commercial tires up to 19.5 inches, safety inspections, and a maintenance record per vehicle you can ask to see any time.

Same building, same corner of Southwest Boulevard, since 1994. Open Monday to Friday, eight to six.
“A special thank you to Blake, who always follows up after service to make sure everything is running well. That kind of personal attention and customer care is rare these days.”
“Eric and the guys always take care of me. More importantly, they're always honest with me. The price is fair, might not be the lowest, certainly isn't the highest, but what's the price of honesty.”
ASE certified technicians. Locally, family and veteran owned. English and Spanish spoken at the counter.
