Ds Truck Tires

661 South Lincoln St., West Point, Nebraska, United States | Tire and Rubber Recycling

D & S Tires Inc. began in January of 1971 when Dick and Sandy Critel rented the old skating rink located at 661 South Lincoln Street. The business began as a retail tire store, offering passenger, tractor, and truck tires. Along with the sales of tires, we offered tire services such as front end alignments, tire changes and farm service truck to offer services outside the building. In 1972, we began to retread truck tires with Bandag continuing through 1984.

In 1978, Dick and Sandy Critel discontinued the retail side of the business and began retreading truck tires for agricultural use. Retreading tires is great for environment, it involves recycling tire casings and making them reusable on different agricultural equipment. Pivot tires have become a large part of the business. Pivot tires are made from old truck casings that are shipped into our plant from all over the country and then buffed, recapped and placed in a hot cap mold to form the tire. in addition to pivot tires, other agricultural tires are also retreaded at the main location, including tires for farm implements to dealerships or manufacturers in the Midwest area.

All mounting of the retread tires on customer wheels is completed and shipped from our mounting shop location at 535 North Lincoln, which is the former Scharfen Cafe location, purchased in 2005.

D & S Tires, Inc. also handles tires for floatation vehicles and implements. Floatation tires allow the applicator to work in wet or poor weather conditions where other tires or duals would sink in. Applications for these floatation tires are very wide spread in use.

Our Welding Shop is located at 217 West Sherman Street. We can adapt or rebuild wheels to fit almost any application for agricultural and truck use to compliment our other shops or personal use.

In 2000, we began to rebuild rubber tracks for agricultural equipment. Later due to demand we began replacing guide blocks. We also rebuild drive wheels, mid rollers and idler wheels on all makes of tractors for farm and construction use. Customers for these services come from all over the USA and Canada.

D & S Tires Inc. is a family run business. Dick and Sandy Critel's son-in-law, Marlan Elbert, manager, has been working at the main plant in West Point since 2000. Brenda Elbert is the office manager in West Point. Due to the demand for tracks and agricultural equipment, D & S Tires, Inc. had to expand. In 2006 another location in Richmond, Indiana opened to meet those demands. Dick and Sandy's daughter, Tammy Scholz, is the office manager in Richmond. In 2011, with more demand out west, we added another store in Parma, Idaho. Dick and Sandy's daughter Kim Oberg and her husband Bill manages this location.
