Thompson's Tire & Tune has been keeping Springfield rolling for over 12 years — honest work, fair prices, and a crew that actually gives a damn about your car.
From a quick oil change to a full engine rebuild, Maggie and her team treat every vehicle like it's their own.
Three core services that keep our customers coming back — done right, every time.
From new tire mounting and balancing to rotation and flat repairs, we handle every tire job with speed and precision. We carry top brands and can order specialty sizes fast. Your safety on the road starts here.
Starting at $25Sluggish engine? Rough idle? We'll get your vehicle running like the day you drove it off the lot. Maggie's team runs full diagnostics, swaps plugs and filters, and checks every system under the hood. No guesswork, just results.
Starting at $89When other shops say it's time to junk it, we say let's see what we're working with. Maggie has been doing full engine rebuilds for over a decade and has brought back vehicles most people gave up on. If it can be fixed, we'll fix it.
Starting at $1,200Maggie Thompson opened Thompson's Tire & Tune right here in Springfield with one goal: give people a shop they could actually trust. After years watching customers get overcharged and under-served elsewhere, she decided to do it differently — no upsells you don't need, no mystery charges, just straight talk and solid work done right the first time.
The shop has grown steadily through referrals and repeat customers — the best compliment a mechanic can get. Maggie's regulars know they can drop off their keys and not worry. That peace of mind is something she's earned one repair at a time, and it's the thing she's most proud of after 12 years in business.
At Thompson's, the values are simple: honesty, quality, and a genuine respect for the people who trust you with their cars. Maggie personally oversees every major job and makes sure no vehicle leaves the bay until it's right. If something changes mid-repair, she'll call you first — always.
Walking into Thompson's feels like stepping into a real working garage — tools on the pegboard, grease on the floor, and somebody who actually knows your name. It's not fancy, and that's exactly the point. This is a place built on craft and community, and Maggie wouldn't have it any other way.

"I've been bringing my Chevy Silverado to Thompson's for six years and I wouldn't go anywhere else. Last fall Maggie caught a cracked exhaust manifold that two other shops completely missed. She called me before doing anything, gave me a fair price, and had it done by end of day. That's just how she operates every single time."

"My engine light came on the day before a road trip and I was panicking. Maggie squeezed me in first thing in the morning, ran diagnostics, and fixed a loose O2 sensor in under an hour. She didn't charge me for anything I didn't need, explained everything in plain English, and sent me off with a full tire pressure check to boot. Absolute lifesaver."

"Took my dad's old '98 Jeep Cherokee in for what I thought was a routine tune-up. Maggie came out, walked me through everything that was going on under the hood — honestly some of it wasn't even that urgent — and helped me prioritize what actually needed to be done first. She rebuilt the engine over two weeks and that Jeep now runs better than it did in 2005. Truly remarkable work."
