La Rims Tire Inc

Used tires turn up in everyday haul trucks, trailers, and passenger cars across the South Bronx, and La Rims Tire Inc keeps those wheels rolling again. Along Webster Avenue, the shop trades in castoff rubber day in and day out, dealing directly with drivers who need a second life for their rims and rubber. The same inventory feeds fleets as well as DIY patch jobs on tight budgets.

It sits on the third floor of 2779 Webster Ave in the heart of the Fordham section, hard by the elevated No. 4 train and a couple of blocks west of the old Fordham Square Library site. Between college traffic and local garages, the location acts as a steady filter for tires that still have miles left. Don’t expect showroom finishes—just honest tread left on every side.

Callers ring the shop to line up swaps or ask about specific diameters and ply ratings. They’re after usable rubber, not brand-new stamps, and the phone at (347) 455-7337 rings straight through to the yard line.

Reach the shop without circling blocks: take the map at 2779 Webster Ave #3, Bronx to park and walk the single flight upstairs. The front door is unassuming; inside, the mood is all business.
