LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Netflix is gearing up to introduce a fresh comedic gem to its vast array of diverse content with 'Tires', set to release on Thursday, May 23, 2024.

The humorous comedy dives deep into the world of the auto repair business, where Will (Steve Gerben), an anxious and unskilled heir to a failing auto business, reluctantly steps into the managerial role.

However, Will's path is far from smooth sailing. He must contend with his cousin Shane (Shane Gillis), an employee at the shop who seems determined to turn Will's life into a comedy of errors.

Additionally, Will faces the daunting challenge of reviving the struggling business amid all the chaos.

As per the trailer of the series, the filming location is mostly an auto repair shop. So, let's discuss further the principal filming location of the series.

According to TheCinemaholic, the filming of the comedy series took place in West Chester, Pennsylvania, deviating from the initially projected Valley Forge location, which is situated northeast of West Chester.

Renowned for its distinctive history, the borough, situated within the Philadelphia metropolitan region, gained widespread recognition as the site where the first biography of Abraham Lincoln was published.

The Pennsylvania General Assembly authorized the construction of a new prison and courtroom in 1784, with the marketplace being completed in 1802. However, it saw limited use in the subsequent years.

Moreover, 'Tires Etc,' situated at 640 East Gay Street, serves as the primary filming location for the series.

The store, which has been fully operational since 2014, specializes in tires and repairs. It temporarily suspended its activities while the show was filmed on the property.

The shop, which is housed in a pleasant business zone, serves as the ideal location for the Valley Forge Automotive Centre, according to TheCinemaholic.
