Family owned. Locally loved. Still doing it the honest way.
Hub Cap Annie opened its doors in 1990 with a simple idea: treat people fairly, fix their wheels right the first time, and never charge for anything they don't need. Three decades later, we're still family owned, still on East Charleston, and still known across the valley for our famous wall of hubcaps.
Today we do a lot more than hubcaps — brand-name tires, wheel and rim repair and restoration, and precision mount and balance work. What hasn't changed is how we do business: free estimates, no hidden fees, same-day service when you need it, and a team that speaks both English and Spanish.
The name goes back to Nancy Utley of Memphis, Tennessee — "Hub Cap Annie" herself. Her husband George, a retired Memphis police captain, kept bringing home stray hubcaps he spotted along the roadside. After five years the collection had taken over the carport, so Nancy — a real estate broker by trade — put them out at a carport sale to clear some space. They sold so fast she realized something: drivers everywhere needed a better way to replace a lost hubcap than paying dealership prices.
So she opened the first Hub Cap Annie store — and outgrew it within 60 days. The idea spread until there were more than 40 individually owned Hub Cap Annie stores across some 16 states, one of the fastest-growing small businesses in America at the time. Our Las Vegas shop opened in 1990 during that wave, and we've been proud to carry Annie's name — and her famous wall of hubcaps — ever since. As Annie herself liked to say about her caps: "They are beautiful. They're gorgeous!"
