A Change will do you good

Ladies Nite at Integra Tire/Okanagan Car Care

A good rule of thumb is to put winter tires on

when the temperature drops to 7 degrees C.

Hey Ladies!

at Okanagan Car Care/Integra Tire.

Our well trained staff has over 140 years in combined knowledge.

And it’s that kind of expertise and our honest reputation that you have come to rely upon.

So when it does comes time for anything from an oil change to a tune-up or a repair...

you can be a part of the decision making for your vehicles care?

 

That’s why we are happy to invite you to Okanagan Car Care/Integra Tire Ladies Nite!

 

Our mechanics will be on hand to offer car maintenance tips in a relaxed and fun atmosphere.

Besides taking care of your car...there’ll be free draws and giveaways for some fabulous pampering for yourself too!

Okanagan Car Care

The Stranaghan family at Okanagan Car Care have been part of the Kelowna Community for almost 60 years and remains the heart of the business. Over ther next year you will notice the name Integra Tire & Auto Centre become part of our business, and while we will adopt a new brand the same ownership and great service you have come to know at Okanagan Car Care will remain the same.

So why the Change?

Integra Tire may be a relatively new name in Western Canada but the people behind the Integra brand are much like us; they too have a long history in the tire and automotive business, striving to be better everyday, caring about their employees, families and the communities they do business in and have built their business on trust.

Integra means Integrity and we like that.

Being apart of Integra Tire we can offer you AeroPlan points

1 Aeroplan mile for every $1 spent on mechanical work on your car

1 Aeroplan for every $2 spent on the purchase tires
