Chennai Tyres & Batteries

You can find Chennai Tyres & Batteries at 19/54 3rd Main Road in Ambattur. We are located right across from the Chennai Ford Service center, which makes it easy for people to spot us. Ambattur is a heavy industrial area, so there’s always a lot of grease and dust in the air. Our shop is basically a large garage filled with stacks of black tires and rows of heavy batteries. The smell of rubber is the first thing you notice when you walk in. We have a couple of jacks and some basic tools scattered around the concrete floor. It’s not a fancy showroom by any means. There’s a small wooden desk where we keep the ledger, and that’s about it for furniture. Most of the day is spent lifting heavy things and checking tire pressures. We get a lot of truck drivers and local commuters who need a quick fix. Our clothes usually have a few black smudges by noon. We don't have a waiting room with air conditioning, so people usually just hang out by the entrance or go get a tea nearby while we work. The sun hits the front of the shop pretty hard in the afternoon, so we keep a big umbrella near the door. It’s a lot of physical work, but it keeps us busy and the day goes by fast.
