Netflix’s workplace comedy Tires season 2 is winning fans over and they want a lot more of it. Following its premiere on June 5, 2025, social media has been buzzing with praise for the show’s humor, character dynamics, and significant leap in quality from its debut season.

One fan has mentioned on X:

“Tires S2 is VERY funny. I liked S1 but the jump to S2 was enormous. Type of show that should get like a 10-season run. Cast of characters and cameos up that feels like an Always Sunny level gang.

The addition of new characters, especially Thomas Haden Church as Phil, has added fresh comedic energy, while the core group led by Shane Gillis and Steve Gerben continues to draw comparisons to the long-running sitcoms such as It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia and Workaholics.

Netizens have shared their views on Tires season 2, appreciating its cast and relatable content.

"Way better than S1. And that’s not a knock on 1 it’s a testament to 2," commented one X user.
"Watching it now. As someone who’s spent the last 20 years in auto repair shops this is scarily accurate to the cast of characters you’d find," said another person.
"Totally agree, Tires S2 is a comedic goldmine with a crew that could rival Always Sunny's gang for years to come," shared another fan.

Here's what more X users have to say about Tires season 2:

"Agreed, I didn't get through S1 but I'm really enjoying S2. Just got to the Feits cameo actually and it's insane who he's in a scene with," tweeted a viewer.
"Two episodes in and totally agree! Gonna bang it out by the weekend but it does make me wish this was an episodic show. I miss those days of waiting all week," commented another X user.

What happens in Tires season 2?

Tires season 2 focuses on Will's (Steve Gerben) efforts to keep his family's struggling auto repair business, Valley Forge Automotive Center, afloat. He does this all while coping with the daily mayhem caused by his cousin Shane (Shane Gillis), who still manages to undermine every attempt with c.

This season features a bigger cast, and more laugh-out-loud character moments, such as the introduction of Thomas Haden Church as Phil, a dry corporate cad with an odd new energy for the shop.

Recurring characters such as Dave (Stavros Halkias), Kilah (Kilah Fox), and Cal (Chris O'Connor) have even more space to play, as office catastrophes take place around them—from bombed promotions to botched corporate audits. Under the farce, the series suggests emotional complexity as Will becomes more desperate and Shane's loyalty emerges in unexpected moments.
