Netflix has officially renewed Tires for Season 3, cementing the scripted comedy as one of the platform’s most unexpected success stories.
Created by Shane Gillis, Steve Gerben, and McKeever, the series will return in 2026 with more offbeat workplace dysfunction, absurd family dynamics, and deadpan laughs.
The announcement comes just weeks after the second season dropped, following a wave of online buzz and strong word-of-mouth from fans of Gillis’ stand-up. Tires may have started as a niche comedy, but it’s quickly become a low-key Netflix favorite.
What Is Tires About?
At the center of Tires is Will (played by Steve Gerben), a skittish and painfully unqualified heir to an auto repair chain who’s determined to turn the business around. The only problem? His cousin Shane (Shane Gillis) works for him and makes his life hell every step of the way.
Season 2 saw the duo trying to ride the high of an accidentally successful marketing idea, all while crashing headfirst into the reality of managing both personal growth and business chaos. The comedy leans heavily into awkward moments, bleak banter, and offbeat characters, fueled by an ensemble that plays dysfunction with perfect restraint.

A Quiet Hit, A Loud Renewal
Dad Sick Productions, the second project from Gillis and McKeever following the stand-up special Beautiful Dogs, produce tires. The show’s scrappy charm, dry tone, and fearless writing style have earned it a growing cult following—one that Netflix clearly believes is only getting started.
No release date has been announced yet for Season 3, but with the renewal confirmed, it’s safe to say more dysfunctional workplace comedy is on the way.
