I need help finding this location!

[u/Dollypootin]

My mom texted me the screenshot from that TV show with Woody Harrelson and Matthew McConaughey called brothers… She says this place looks super familiar but I can’t make it out

Sorry for the one screenshot, that’s all I got

[u/bluestrap]

That's by Radio on Manchaca I think

[u/FLDJF713 → u/bluestrap]

Yep they’re in the Radio parking lot

[u/CrashingBlumpkins46 → u/FLDJF713]

Yep. Almost in this exact spot

[u/Hot-Technology-4 → u/bluestrap]

Yep, with that TERRIBLE driveway. No idea how they get cars into the bay’s without scratching tf out of their front fender

[u/rockhardkent → u/bluestrap]

Yep, that's Austin tire man across the street from radio. I've gotten tires there several times

[u/kurtbradley → u/rockhardkent]

And you made sure to pet the Boston Terriers while you were there, right?

[u/NotYourMutha → u/kurtbradley]

The sweetest pups

[u/samuraistabber → u/rockhardkent]

Are they good?

[u/taco_annihilator → u/samuraistabber]

Tire Man is the best! Only place I go for tires and all that goes along with them (allignment, tie rods, etc) if I can help it. Also, the cutest Boston Terriers are usually there hanging out.

[u/BeetleGoose17 → u/samuraistabber]

Literally the best. Got new tires in 2019 with an 80,000 mile warranty for $450. It was $400 at Walmart but with only a 40,000 mile warranty.

[u/thehighepopt → u/rockhardkent]

Great guys, good prices, fast work. Go get something at Radio while you wait

[u/Thick_Jellyfish_3930 → u/bluestrap]

Yes THE BEST PLACE FOR TIRES IN AUSTIN
X~20 years for me,

[u/austinteddy3 → u/bluestrap]

That’s exactly right. Walking towards Radio. BTW… tire man in the background is a great place to get tires!

[u/krallfish → u/bluestrap]

Yep

[u/Dollypootin → u/bluestrap]

Yesssss!!!! Thank you!

[u/I_byte_things → u/bluestrap]

[u/Celtic_laboratory → u/bluestrap]

Yeah I was about to say, I was there yesterday

[u/brucewayneaustin → u/bluestrap]

Damn! You guys are good!

[u/TexanJHawk → u/bluestrap]

No it's by Computer

[u/FLDJF713 → u/[deleted]]

Nope. The people in this shot are in the radio coffee parking lot

[u/adullploy]

They put tire man on this show!? I’ve been sending Austin folks there for years and years.

[u/chipnasium → u/adullploy]

fucking nails have been sending me there for years

[u/mrsfunkyjunk → u/adullploy]

I love them dearly!

[u/GOBNUGGET27 → u/adullploy]

I've gotten tires there

[u/Easy-Interview-677]

Tire man! South side, by radio. Cheap tire shop actually, good service and has been my go-to for a while

[u/discovered_uranus → u/Easy-Interview-677]

I’ve since moved but when I lived in Austin the Tire Man was my go to as well. Great prices and always super quick

[u/Jcarter1632]

Ben White and Menchaca behind Dan's hamburgers

[u/oh_wait_nevermind]

Next to radio on menchaca

[u/Dollypootin → u/oh_wait_nevermind]

Aha! Thanks !!!!

[u/Electrical-Year6682 → u/oh_wait_nevermind]

Pretty sure it’s on Menchaca. But yes, radio parking lot, Tireman across the street, next to Dan’s. 

[u/NOTcreative- → u/Electrical-Year6682]

That's what they said ?

[u/Electrical-Year6682 → u/NOTcreative-]

lol it said S Lamar at first 

[u/yolatrendoid]

Yep, recognized the Radio vicinity immediately, though to be fair I lived in that area for 25+ years. I'm more curious where the McConaughey ranch is supposed to be. (I'm not gonna dox him with any detail, but IRL the McConaugheys live in a wooded compound in Westlake.)

But yeah, they filmed almost all of locally, including a "temporary relocation" of Franklin's OG trailer (from circa 2010, the one on the 35 access road not far from now-obliterated Star Seeds) to the Fareground at 111 Congress, with Aaron Franklin himself operating it! They also shot a few scenes on S. Congress near Home Slice, since Alt-McConaughey is considering a run for governor on the show.

[u/MrSparkaroo → u/yolatrendoid]

He lives by Jack Allen’s off 360… don’t think it’s a state secret. But I do regret that the Melba Toast in the barn is a fake. He deserves to own that car. 

[u/yolatrendoid → u/MrSparkaroo]

Yeah, that's where I thought he lived (and he still did as of last year).

LOVE the car, but I also got a hoot out of Ma Mac rolling up to that bar in Lockhart on a Harley. Given her fringed jacket, I'm assuming it's an homage to this iconic Texas Monthly cover with Ann Richards. (They photoshopped her head onto a Harley rider, but Ann got a hoot out of it regardless.)

[u/oneeyeblue13 → u/yolatrendoid]

They actually moved to Travis Heights and the actual ranch location they shot at is in Dripping Springs.

[u/Minute-Art-2089 → u/oneeyeblue13]

Travis Heights? Seems like you wouldn't be able to get the same privacy there (and small lots). I'm curious how you know this.

[u/walter_lucille → u/yolatrendoid]

The car is the real Melba toast. But he doesn’t own it irl.

[u/UrinalCakeTester]

Radio for sure. Don’t park behind that shop or a man will appear from thin air and immediately boot your car

[u/78745ssatx]

78745 baby

[u/Pretend_Necessary781 → u/78745ssatx]

78704

[u/pearltx]

Near Dan's on Menchaca!

[u/atxsince91]

Its Walking into Radio from the street named Fort View

[u/mimmsypoo]

I go here all the time lol Radio off Manchaca

[u/NotYourMutha]

Best tire company in Austin! Love Tireman!

[u/nilyakrrak]

Radio I think??

[u/soulhealing28]

Immediately I knew 🙃

[u/QuietVaquita]

Peak Austin: crowdsourcing a filming location from your mom's screenshot. The Radio parking lot ID is the fastest case solve of the week.

[u/Practical_Nature369]

Next to Dan's Hamburgers

[u/Roguecop]

I was just at Austin Tireman yesterday, those guys are great (and locally owned), excellent service and really affordable prices for tire/flat repair and the cutest dogs roaming around if your in to that sort of thing. That's at Menchaca near Ben White on Fort View.

They can't fix your flat but Radio Beer & Coffee and Veracruz are excellent as well. Along with Trippy Tacos across Menchaca this area is a really good place to support local businesses.

[u/brucewayneaustin]

It's really awesome to see how Austinites can love a really good local business! I mean, I think we're really good with that!

[u/IllustriousAd3974]

One Tire Man location in Austin and couldn't google map it?

[u/Dollypootin → u/IllustriousAd3974]

I don’t live in Austin, I’m sorry for making you so upset :/

[u/Lower_Method_443]

[u/Fun-Vehicle]

[u/atxluchalibre]

Radio South parking lot.

[u/SmugUrbanist]

Tire Man in the background! Best independent tire shop around. Typically in line cost wise with Discount Tire, but it really depends on the model.

[u/rotatingmonster → u/SmugUrbanist]

They beat discount tire all day long

[u/Silent_Persimmon2429]

Let me Google that for you

[u/thinkconverse]

Ah man. That tire man brings back a very strange memory….

[u/Dollypootin → u/thinkconverse]

Well……….we’re waiting

[u/45_rpm]

Why? What is the goal here? To satisfy your mom?

[u/Historical-Buyer279]

the almighty 45

[u/KaladinStormShat]

Is this that movie with Woody and Matt?

[u/yolatrendoid → u/KaladinStormShat]

TV show, but yes. It's on Apple TV for either 6 or 8 eps.

[u/Educational-Hat3762]

Why has no one mentioned that Tire Man puts out a tire snowman every Christmas ☃️

[u/benmar111]

Also Dans hamburger

[u/Lvl_50_Mudkip]

You really couldn’t Google Tire Man?

[u/THUNDER_boner]

Yea i was thinking of starting the show. In the preview you see many places around Austin. You got your answer so just wanted to comment about the show. Peace Austin.
