HELP!!! Need tire shop in Colorado Springs

I've got two tire issues while 1500 miles from home. My truck's rt front tire is wearing too much on the outer tread. No ride issues other than a very slight pull to the right. I also discovered a bulge on the sidewall of one of my fifth wheel's tires where it meets the tread. They are both 10 ply (E) rated tires. Does anybody know of a reliable, trustworthy truck tire shop here or near the Springs? ANY help is appreciated.
Thanks!

Your first issue sounds like an allingnment issue.

I did a quick google search and came up with the fiollowing.

colorado springs tire dealers - Google Search


I have heard some good things about big o but have no direct knowledge about this store sisnce I'm in VA.

Good luck.

I like discount tire....they have a good selection and their warranty program (nationwide) as well as their free rotation and balance for the life of the tire has worked for me.

been sometime, but I think I used the Big O there in the springs before when I lived there.

I would suppose your issue with the 5th wheel may be more for the RV dealer if you are looking for a ST tire though.

Several from the RV forum also recommended Big O and Discount. That's who I'm gonna call I guess.
I'll let ya'll know if I learn anything that may be helpful.
Thanks everybody.

If you need an wheel alignment in Colo Springs, go to Jacks Alignment. The only place to go. This place only does alignments, and fixes all the cruddy alignments done by chain stores and tire shops. It's just east of I-25 on Fillmore St. - north of downtown a few exits.
