Netflix's Tires Gears Up for Season 3: Bobby Lee Joins Shane Gillis With Five More Co-Stars
Shane Gillis' Tires is revving up for Season 3 on Netflix, adding six recurring cast members — including Bobby Lee and Billy Magnussen — to keep the laughs rolling.
All right, if you thought Netflix wasn't doubling down on its low-key hit Tires, think again—season 3 is in the works, and there are six (yes, six) new cast members hopping on board. It's a pretty interesting crew, and some of the casting choices are a little unpredictable. So let's get into the details and see who's headed to Wilkes-Barre's favorite struggling tire shop—and what it could mean for the show.
Who's Rolling Into Tires Season 3?
First up, here's the rundown of the new recurring cast members joining for the third season:
- Billy Magnussen: He's playing Taylor, who’s basically the guy you wish you weren’t jealous of—charming, confident, 'alpha' energy, and apparently just gliding through life with some serious 'look at me' entrepreneur vibes.
- Jamie Lynn Sigler: She’s in the lineup but, in classic Netflix fashion, her character is still under wraps. Maybe she’ll own a rival tire shop. Maybe she’ll be a debt collector. For now: total mystery.
- Taylor Misiak: She’s Jill—Shane’s ex-girlfriend from high school. Expect banter, awkward flirtations, and probably some lingering romantic tension, because when was a sitcom reunion ever not weird?
- Sofia Hasmik: The team just added her as Lucy, a 'blunt, witty bartender' who apparently has so much charm you’ll wonder if she’s getting her own spinoff.
- Dan Soder: Playing Frank, a vintage car collector. He actually trusts Cal to work on his cars, which tells you either Cal is more competent than we thought or Frank hasn’t seen the show.
- Bobby Lee: Ricky, the boss's son who’s a higher-up at the tire company, is coming in hot. He’s described as 'slightly unkempt and often chaotic,' which sounds just about perfect for Bobby Lee. Assume he’s going to stir up trouble.
Tires — The Gist So Far
For anyone new: Shane Gillis co-created, writes, and executive produces Tires. The show orbits Will, who’s the textbook definition of 'accidental boss'—nervous, green, and now in charge of his dad’s struggling auto repair empire. Shane (yes, played by Gillis) is his cousin/employee, and if you’re guessing Shane makes Will’s life harder at every turn... you’re exactly right.
Last season was all about Will and Shane going full throttle to expand after a marketing stunt actually worked. What followed was a mess of 'success' fallout—personal drama, professional missteps, and the kind of chaos that happens when you scale up before you’re ready.
Who Runs the Show (Behind the Scenes)
Gillis, Steven Gerben, and John McKeever are the creative brain trust here—they co-created, write, and executive produce every episode. McKeever also directs, so he’s busy. On the production side, you’ve got Brandon James (Rough House) running interference as an exec producer, with Brian Stern and Kenneth Slotnick producing for AGI Entertainment and Management. Becky Astphan is also an exec producer, which is a polite way of saying there are a lot of cooks in this tire shop kitchen.
Anything Else?
If you’re looking for official plot teases, there aren’t any out there—Netflix is keeping things tight. But with nearly half a dozen new recurring roles, season 3 is clearly aiming higher on the ensemble chaos curve.
'A slightly unkempt and often chaotic tire company higher-up' — that pretty much sums up both Bobby Lee’s comedic brand and what you should expect from this new season.
Anyway, keep an eye out—Tires season 3 looks like it’s going to be packed (possibly overstuffed) with new faces and even more low-stakes workplace shenanigans. Let’s hope nobody actually tries to fix my car.
