Custom Wheels Retailer Opens Gulfport and Lafayette Stores With Lift Kit Bays and New Lighting Add-Ons
Houma, United States – June 1, 2026 / StreetKing Custom Wheels and Tires /
StreetKing Custom Wheels and Tires has opened two new retail locations – one in Gulfport, Mississippi and one in Lafayette, Louisiana – marking a significant expansion of the regional wheel and tire operation. The move brings custom wheels, rims, tires, and suspension services closer to customers across the Gulf Coast and Acadiana, with both stores stocked and staffed for full-service vehicle customization.
Lafayette Store Lands on One of the City’s Busiest Roads
The StreetKing team decided to custom build the new Lafayette location, which is positioned on Ambassador Caffery Parkway the second most traveled road in Lafayette, Louisiana. Andrew Boudreaux, StreetKing’s spokesperson said the owners wanted the store to have immediate visibility among a high volume of daily commuters and vehicle enthusiasts moving through the area. For drivers searching for wheels and tires in Lafayette, LA, the location offers direct access without the detour of traveling to larger metro markets.
What sets the Lafayette store apart from a standard retail setup is its dedicated service bay for suspension work. Customers can now come in for lift kits, level kits, and lowering kits, with technicians working to dial in the right suspension configuration for each vehicle. The added bay means that finding the ideal gap and best stance is part of the in-store experience, not an afterthought. Whether a truck owner wants increased ground clearance for trail use or a lowered profile for street performance, the Lafayette location is equipped to handle the full range of suspension adjustments.
For those shopping for rims in Lafayette, LA, the store carries an extensive selection of aftermarket wheels and tuner wheels across a range of fitments, finishes, and styles, alongside a full inventory of performance tires suited for daily driving, towing, and off-road applications.
Gulfport Location Brings the StreetKing Experience to the Mississippi Gulf Coast
The Gulfport store gives Mississippi drivers a dedicated destination for custom wheels and rims in Gulfport, MS without leaving the coast. The new wheel store carries the same depth of inventory that StreetKing has built its reputation on, including off-road wheels designed for trucks and SUVs that see demanding terrain, as well as options oriented toward street builds and show vehicles.
As a full-service tires store, the Gulfport location handles everything from tire selection and mounting to balancing, giving customers a single stop for complete wheels and tires packages. The store is equipped to serve both daily drivers and enthusiasts looking for specific fitments that are difficult to source through general auto retailers.
Both Locations Add Lighting and Running Board Options
Alongside the suspension and wheel offerings, both the Gulfport and Lafayette stores are now carrying a lineup of vehicle lighting and exterior accessories. Customers can select from power running boards, rack lights, and wheel well lights – additions that complement a custom wheel and lift setup and extend the visual and functional build of a vehicle beyond the wheels themselves.
Power running boards, in particular, have grown in demand among truck owners who pair larger tires and lift kits with practical entry-and-exit solutions. Rack lights and wheel well lights offer both functional visibility and an aesthetic element that rounds out a completed build. Having these products available in-store alongside aftermarket wheels and suspension options means customers can plan and execute a more complete vehicle build in one visit rather than sourcing components from multiple vendors.
The addition of lighting accessories at both locations reflects a broader direction for StreetKing, where the stores function as full customization destinations rather than standalone wheel stores or tire shops. Customers shopping for rims in Gulfport, MS or walking into the Lafayette location for a set of performance tires can now leave with a finished build that includes suspension work, exterior lighting, and running board upgrades – all handled under one roof.
