When "Smilin'" Jack Bastian opened his first tire store in Williamsport in 1958, he knew a lot about tires, but even more about people. He always had a way of getting to know his customers and just what they needed. Today, we keep up this tradition. Our customers really trust Bastian Tire and Auto Centers when it comes to taking excellent care of their vehicles.

"Today, we're a high-tech operation," says Mike Bastian, second-generation owner. "But, it's not just technology that we pride ourselves on - it's also that we still know most of our customers on a first-name basis. We're not an impersonal chain franchise that has different personnel every time the customer walks in."

It's the combination of the latest technology and old-fashioned customer service that has propelled Bastian Tire and Auto Centers from their small shop in 1958 to one of the largest tire operations in the Northeast region with two locations in Williamsport, Shamokin Dam, Bloomsburg, State College, Wellsboro and Lewisburg. As well, the 1973 opening of their                Jonathan, Jack, Michael, Mike
tire retread plant and tire distribution center on Reach Road, Williamsport. Plans are in the works for more retail locations in the future.

"It's because we've always emphasized professional car care that we've grown at the rate we have over the years," said Mike Bastian, owner. "Our customers rely on us to make sure they are driving a safe and reliable vehicle. It's up to us to earn that confidence."
