FAMILY-RUN · IVA, SOUTH CAROLINA
New and used tires, oil changes, brakes and AC service from Brian and LB. A family-run shop on Central Street, serving Anderson County since 2018.
Tell us what your vehicle needs. We’ll inspect the problem, explain the options and discuss the work before you approve it.
Compare tires suited to your vehicle, driving and budget. Call with your tire size to check current availability and installed pricing.
Ask about inspected used tires in your size. We’ll help compare fit, remaining tread and condition with the new-tire options.
A nail or slow leak needs an inspection. We check the damage and explain whether a proper repair or replacement is appropriate.
Help your tires wear evenly with rotation and balancing when needed. Ask us to check the correct schedule for your vehicle.
Fast oil changes done right, with a real look under the hood while we're at it. If something else needs attention, we'll show you — if it doesn't, we won't invent it.
Pads, rotors, and honest brake inspections. If your brakes have life left, we'll tell you. If they're done, we'll fix them at a fair price.
Upstate South Carolina summers are no joke. We diagnose weak AC, recharge the system, and chase down leaks so your truck blows cold again.
Check engine light on? Locked out? Flat on the side of the road? Call the shop and Brian will figure out the problem — and he's been known to help stranded drivers for free.




Pick up the phone and talk to Brian or the crew directly. Tell us what's going on and we'll give you a straight answer about timing and rough cost.
Drop your vehicle off at 501 Central Street. We'll get it into the bay and start a real inspection — not a sales pitch.
We show you what we found and what actually needs fixing today versus what can wait. If you don't need the repair, we'll tell you.
Approved work gets done by hands with 50 years of combined experience. You drive away knowing the job was done right.

Brian Powell opened BP's Express Tire & Auto Plus to be the kind of shop he'd want to take his own truck to. No pressure. No padded invoices. No mystery charges at pickup. Just honest work from a guy who's been turning wrenches his whole life.
Brian learned the trade from his dad, Ed Powell — a longtime Iva resident known across Anderson County for his kindness and integrity — working alongside him at the family salvage yard for over 35 years before opening BP's Express Tire in January 2018. Today his oldest son, Brian "LB" Powell, works the shop with him.
A lot of the same folks keep coming back. Some bring their kids' first cars in now. That tells you everything.
A real shop, not a chain. We do new tires in every brand and size, quality used tires that save you hundreds, brakes, AC work, oil changes, diagnostics, and small mechanical repairs. If we can't fix it, we'll tell you straight.
We help our neighbors. Locked your keys in the car outside Anderson? Caught a flat on the way home? Call us. Brian has been known to swap a tire for free when somebody's truly stuck — that's just how we were raised to do things in the Upstate.
We only recommend repairs you actually need — and we'll show you the part that's worn.
Combined hands-on experience across tires, brakes, AC, and small mechanical work.
Compare new and inspected used options suited to your vehicle. Call with your tire size to check stock and pricing.
Full synthetic, blend, or conventional — on the manufacturer's interval, no quick-lube upsells.
"Since I just had neck surgery, I could not afford a new tire. Brian took the time to personally change the tire. My wife and I are indebted to Brian for his meticulous service of our vehicles. May God continue to richly bless Brian and BP Automotive."Tracy P.
"Brian Powell is a great man. My husband and I have taken our vehicles to his shop twice now and we were happy with our service both times. Honest work, fair prices, and you can tell he actually cares about the people who walk through his door."
"A very honest and trustworthy business! Quality work and honest — you don't find that anywhere anymore. Thank you Brian. I'm a customer for life now. If you've been burned by a shop before, give BP's a try. You'll feel the difference the second you pull in."
"Fair and honest. After finding this shop I do not go anywhere else. Great prices and great people. They can fix anything — tires, brakes, AC, you name it. Give them a try, you will not regret it. Brian and his crew treat you like a neighbor, not a number."
"Needed two tires fast before a road trip and Brian got me in same day. He showed me a quality used set that saved me almost $200 over new — and they've held up perfectly for over a year now. This is the only shop I trust with my truck."
Call Brian directly or swing by the shop on Central Street — we'll take care of you the same way we'd take care of family.
