Neodesha is about 14 miles up US-75 from our shop in Independence. We keep Neodesha's work trucks, family cars and farm pickups safe and dependable with the right tires, precision alignments and expert repair.
A town built on hard work
Neodesha is where the Norman No. 1 came in in 1892, often called the first commercial oil well west of the Mississippi. The replica derrick and museum still stand in town. Neodesha also sits where the Fall River meets the Verdigris. More than a century later, it's still a town of work trucks, farm pickups and long commutes, and those vehicles need tires and parts built for the job.
Is your work truck on the right tires?
A lot of trucks leave the dealer on passenger-rated tires that were picked for a quiet ride, not for a loaded bed or a trailer. Here's how to tell if yours needs more:
- Check the sidewall. A size starting with "P" (P265/70R17) is a passenger tire. "LT" (LT265/70R17) is a light-truck tire with a stronger build.
- Check the load range. Load range E tires carry much more than a standard-load passenger tire at the same size.
- Think about where you drive. Lease roads, gravel and job sites quickly damage thin sidewalls. An all-terrain LT tire holds up better.
- Towing? The right tire, at the right pressure, keeps a trailer from pushing your truck around.
Tell us how you use the truck and we'll recommend tires that fit the work. See new tires.
Keeping high-mileage trucks on the road
Commutes up and down US-75 and out US-400 add miles quickly. A few things keep a high-mileage truck dependable:
- Alignment once a year and after any front-end work, so the tires don't wear out early. Wheel alignment
- Front-end inspection. Ball joints and tie rods wear faster on heavy trucks. Suspension and steering
- Brakes checked whenever you're towing regularly. Brake repair
- Diagnostics at the first warning light, before a small problem strands you. Check engine light

How far is Ashcraft from Neodesha?
About 14 miles. Take US-75 south into Independence. We're at 215 N 6th St.
What's the difference between a P and an LT tire?
P-metric tires are built for passenger vehicles and light loads. LT (light truck) tires have stronger construction and higher load ratings for towing and hauling. If your truck works for a living, it probably wants LT tires.
