This place is the worst!! Can t believe this place is still in business..Total rip off! Save yourself the hassle and go to anywhere but here. They charge double what any other place would charge. I came in with the tire on the rim and he wanted $120 for a new tire that I got for half the price somewhere else. He first put on a used tire that wasn t even the right size and had no tread at all. I seen from other reviews that this isn t the first time they have done this. They could care less and were so disrespectful. Wouldn t even give me all my money back. Waste of money.. Worst tire shop in town

So I get that this place sells used tires but cannot believe they charge the same price as a brand new tire sometimes even more! And the tires have barely any tread on them. They put on the wrong size tire and when I let them know they laughed at me and told me not to worry. I drove off upset and felt taken advantage of. Next thing you know I started feeling the whole car shake. They didn t even tighten the lug bolts!! Thank god I wasn t driving with my daughter and could have been in an accident. Worst $70 I ve ever spent and regret choosing this place. Very rude people there. Save yourself a headache and go literally anywhere else.

Avoid this place at all costs!!!!This place charged me $55 for a used tire with 1/8 of thread without telling me it would be used before hand. and it wasn t even the right size! When I went back he said it s sizing be off is ok and if I want a new one it will be $135 for one tire! I asked for a refund and he said I will be charged $30 to take the tire back. I went to Walmart and got a brand new tire put on for $60 after tax with rotation. This place is a total rip off! Very rude people as well who definitely like to take advantage. I have other cars and would have brought more business to you but now I will warn everyone to avoid you guys and spread the word . You guys should be ashamed of yourselves!

Fast fix me up tire spot in the Springs...Only thing is that when they say come back in a week. Their story and help will not be the same..Fast tire repair for your needs but only flaw is the staff member stated they could help me out when the new batch of tires come in. So, I waited to be turned away like he didn't just say come back within a week.Your word is your bond with me. So do not tell me anything.Besides that....this place offers tires when you need a quick fix me up

They are very nice. Always affordable. They won't price gouge you and if they can patch your tire they will fix it verses telling you to buy a new one.

I needed tires and they had just what I needed in stock. My tires were mounted on the rim, balanced and installed on the rim in less than an hour for a very reasonable price. I will definitely think of this family owned, multi service, garage first the next time I need their excellent service.

Went in the facility for a tire patch. The employees and managers didn't acknowledge my presence at all. Maybe they don't like working with African Americans I don't know. Will not go back again.

Just came back from getting a tire replaced and a spare returned to its original position on my truck. Even though the World Cup was on TV they literally knocked my job out in less than 9 minutes, I have never had service like this for a tire and I have 5 cars, they did the work to a "T" Got back to their game and I was home happy as a pig in a blanket. No fear here, not an epic-looking shop on the outside (not bad though) but don't worry the guys inside are more than epic. Highly recommend. I live close and they are my new go-to guys for tires.

This place is the worst we went here consistently for a year or more they would fix our vehicles every time then something else would brake. We finally went to another mechanic and he told us everything he did wrong. Even took my Oldsmobile and got it back even worse with more leaks and stereo problems and he also fixed my husbands truck and it would leave us stranded. We got stranded 4 times!!! He also fixed my husbands wrx and he left a loose bolt when putting back the transmission after fixing a new clutch!! He also messed our brakes! I can on and on all they care is getting you in and out. Sometimes they charge you and don t even do nothing to your vehicle! The charge $35 for a patch too. Smh Recommend Lopez shop down the street. They know what they re doing.

I've had a couple of experiences here. Two have been very nice, and once not so nice.They usually have reasonable prices on used tires, except that once, they seemed to ask for a higher price, so I left to go else where. But when they're reasonable, I get my tires here.

This place is my new tire store, I went to three tire places before coming here and saved some money, time and felt very appreciated by the staff.

Got my Grandmas tire patched up , they treated it like priority. Friendly Hispanic Mom and Pops tire shop with fast friendly service. Before you spend money with the big names, check these guys out, trust their prices are way better for quality tires and speedy service!

These guys are on their game. We walked in needing a tire and had to leave and go get the rim. When we returned, they took it right back and we were walking out the door 10 minutes later. Very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Even the music made me happy. =)

Long story short. I will never go here or recommend this place again. Went in and got 4 tires replaced. When picking up my vehicle, when completed, I noticed my chrome valve stem covers had been replaced with plastic black ones. When I asked about this the chrome ones had disappeared and they gave me ones that did not match. Frustrated I left and drove home.. When I got home and walked around the car inspecting the tires again, I found a lug nut bolt missing. I drove back to the shop and told the guy at the counter. He said it wasn't on when I dropped the car off. He wasn't even the one that worked on it. I told him he was incorrect and he just kept saying it wasn't on. He did nothing to try and help me.Beware of this place, find another shop. Below are before and after pics. I always take pics of the work like this. Notice first pic has all lug nuts and the chrome cap and the second picture was the end result.

I purchased 4 new tires from them 6 months ago. Both tires that was going flat . so I decided to go to the place purchased them from. Normally after spending over $600 for tires there. You get free flat repair. Not from this place. I was charged 40$ to repair the tires. I called and asked the price of this type of repair costs. I was quoted $ 15 a tire. I asked the guy if that is what is charged then why was I charged 20$ a tire. He said the owner told him that tires that are 20" and above they charge $ 20. Which is a bull sh*! Excuse. No wonder they are a "cash only business. This place is a rip off. I wouldn't go there for any type of car repair. !!!

So I really needed tires badly for my '05 VW Passat. My roommate recommended this tire shop because they might have some used tires that would be way better than what I was rolling around on. I needed two tires size 205/65R16.Since I'm not employed, and disability only comes once a month, I absolutely need to spend my money very frugally!I arrived at their shop and the guy that I talked to went and took a look and as luck would have it there were two used tires available! In the size I needed..."What a relief," I thought to myself, I proceeded to ask what it would cost to have the tires mounted and everything that goes along with it. I was quoted a price of 119 dollars and some odd cents. It would be something like 55$ a tire. Not really thinking about it I said, "let's do it", feeling relieved that the dangerously dry rotted radials I was driving on would be gone.... A couple minutes later the guy that was working on my car came in to the waiting area asking if I had the special locking socket that would allow that one special lug to be removed. I looked all over in the car and couldn't find it. Well crud!! I couldn't get the tires put on.Driving away from their shop I reflect briefly on the price I would've paid, and thought, "that seems kinda high for USED TIRES"...Lemme tell ya what, it's a great thing that my tires didn't come off, because I checked it out on Walmart's app, Discovering that I could get totally BRAND NEW TIRES on the front axle for 84.00 bucks! Even with the mount and balance and a few bucks for the other fees, I STILL! would have not spent any more than $130 and gotten new radials. The value alone having brand new tires is totally worth the few extra bucks.It's very disappointing that this shop thinks it's okay to gouge the heck outta their customers!! Obviously when someone comes in and says they are looking for used tires, they probably are trying to save money!!So buyers BEWARE!! This place hasNO PROBLEM overcharging customers. CHECK OUT OTHER PLACES FIRST! Chances are pretty good you'll save yourself money.

Come here with a positive attitude and they will treat you the same. And to the people saying its dirty... maybe dirty but I didnt see one item on the ground anywhere in the shop. They focus on what there doing so they can get it done. Thanks so much guys! Ill be sure to tell about your exceptional service.

I drove across town to find they were closing 40 minutes early. All the employees were standing around. No one said ANYTHING when I pointed out that they were closing early. The whole place and everyone in it made it very clear that they couldn't care less. And have fun with the parking lot if you're driving West.

These guys are awesome. Never had a tire they've fixed or a used set I've gotten there fail. Prices are reasonably negotiable. Staff is excellent.
