Chris Misero and the team at Sports Car Tires are fantastic. Refinished my Audi wheels in 3-days, better than new with black enamel accents, 1/4 cost of new wheels. Great place, people, service, and value!

True professionals and nice to deal with. I ordered rims for my vehicle that said they fit. I took them to SCT and they spent a considerable amount of time to get them perfect. This included having to drill out each lug hole and install hub spacers rings. So much for a direct fit. I praise SCT and say SCREW VISION WHEELS.

YOU wanna fix or restore your wheels? Then this is the place for you.I bought an olld set of hard to find wheels from Audi,got em cheap cause they were kind of beat up but these guys gave em life again,from a flat gray to a very gloss Charcoal..OMG they look brand new and color is so glossy.NO damage while mounting the tires and they have ROAD FORCED wheel balance.I finally found my tire place in Delaware.Thank you guys!

Went here on the recommendation of my mechanic, as I needed an alignment. The first time I went to Sports Car Tire, my car was still pulling to the right afterwards. I called and rescheduled for them to look at it again, and the second time they actually fixed the alignment - and didn't charge me any extra! That's when I knew I was doing business at a reputable shop - honest enough to fix when there was a mistake and not try to muscle in some extra money afterwards. Next time I need an alignment, I'll be going here!

I came here because I was told by another shop I had a bent rim and that was the reason my tire wasn't holding air. Made an appointment for 9 and didn't leave till almost 11. When I made my appointment I was given a price of 150 for everything I needed. I'm sitting in the waiting room and the guy who works there asks me for the lock to my wheels. Well the tire that needs work doesn't have a lock so what do u need that for???? He walks me to my car to show me ALL 4 wheel rims are bent. OK but that's not what I'm HERE now..... These tire places are so sleeazy they ALWAYS wanna upcharge u for something! Once he's finished he says the tire has a tear in it and it didn't hold air.... (What a coincidence ). So I left with a donut.... Get to another tire place and I said where is the middle emblem? They said it wasn't there. Called this place and they have it but when I drive ALL the way back there it's DAMAGED . If u don't have to come here, don't! I have to drive ALL the way on the other side of town to get back here after they lost and damaged the center cap! He barely apologized !Go elsewhere!!!

Place is great. If you need a wheel repaired, resurfaced, new wheels or new tires this is the place. Great people and great service.

Had a terrific experience at this wheel/ tire store.They took my bent scratched old wheels and made them new again.Les went way overboard on the customer service, exceeding my expectations at every turn.The result is brand new looking wheels perfectly mounted tires and I am so very happy to write about excellent workmanship.If only other outfits could work like this, what a world we would have.Thanks again Les.Everyone I see will know who to ask for , and where to go for great service and perfect wheels

Seriously these guys are the best in the business with refinishing, repairing and straightening wheels, Add to it that they have great prices on tires often beating tire rack prices and a proper load force balancer. True car enthusiasts that know their stuff and the ability to restore a factory wheel to brand new with a true to factory finish. I had them do wheels in the past for me but most recently I had them straighten and finish a set of M5 wheels back to the original factory Chrome Shadow finish which is notoriously difficult to get right. I will post photos.

Sports Car Tire did a superb job powder coating my Lincoln's 20 inch wheels, and installing two new Michelins. They are very customer focused and their prices are reasonable. I highly recommend them. A very professional group, indeed.

LEAVING ORIGINAL COMMENT FOR FULL DISCLOSURE HERE (HOWEVER, PLEASE READ UPDATE BELOW):Maybe a good place for high end rims...not for average joes. Get quotes in writing prior to work and ask about all fees included up front. I was told that fixing a cracked stock rim on a 2017 Ford Fusion would cost me $90 at 11:20 am (which is what the folks at Firestone said the repair should cost in total). Ended up paying $145 when they passed me the bill at 1:00 pm. $120 for the ($90) repair and an unexpected, not-quoted $25 fee. Maybe it was because I turned down work on another tire that I did not bring the car in for. The guy who quoted me the $90 in the morning, was nowhere to be found when the second guy brought me the invoice in the afternoon and gave me the-deer-in-the-headlights look when I mentioned the $90 quote.UPDATE: I called as suggested in the response below and they immediately processed a refund. They ended up charging me half of what the original cost would/should have been for my trouble. These folks care about making things right so customers are satisfied. They are honest and reasonable but human and simply made a clerical error.

They charged me less than half of what Firestone was going to. I thought I was just gonna have to junk my car after Firestones quote but then I found Sports Car Tire. Lifesavers. So excited to be getting my car back because of their reasonable pricing. They really worked with me. Great first time experience there. Highly recommend!

Very friendly service. Took me back and showed me my wheel and explain where the damage was. Gave me time to think about how I wanted to move forwarded. I ended up getting my wheel repaired there and they did a very nice job.

I do not give 5 stars lightly! I took my wheels to Sports Car Tire as they looked terrible. I checked all the reviews, and called around for a week. I decided to go with them because of the price. I was so happy with the overall experience and quality of the results. I decided to get new tires there and the price was better than online prices. Everyone there was very nice and professional. I would recommend Sports Car Tire to my family and friends. This was definitely a 5 Star operation. Thanks Chris and all the guys that helped me make my wheels new again

If you have a high end car, THIS is the place you want to have rims and tired changed. Their price was great and their service even better. Don't let the location or the appearance of the shop fool you, this is the premiere place in Delaware to get your tires or rims changed. P.S. There were a number of NJ and PA tagged cars in the lot as well...clearly a sign that Sports Car Tire has a reputation that draws people from other states.

The team at Sports Car Tire saved us after my daughter and niece got a flat tire on the NJTP! It was a scary situation and we searched the area to replace the tire. Sports Car Tire was responsive to our calls and the only one in the area that had the tire. The team was waiting to help as soon as they arrived in the tow truck. They were reasonable and efficient and got them back on the road within the hour. The ladies arrived at their destination safely yesterday without further issue. Eternally grateful for your personal service and support! Thank you!!!

Dropped a rim & tire off to be repaired end of October 2022 called a few times rim guy out due to Covid ok no problem, called back a few weeks later we can't find the invoice for the wheel asked me to send a picture of rim ok no problem, sent the picture ok we found the rim, just gonna get it cleaned up for you. 2 weeks later i get a call sorry we can't fix your wheel, (The one you said was already fixed) smh get down to the shop to pick up my rim with no tire on it guy says well you know the tire was bad it had a chunk missing. The tire was good still held air still had good tread but they trashed it. This place is very unprofessional from start to finish. I do not recommend using them!

Called with some questions about rim reconditioning and tire installation. I was not familiar with this business. The people who answered the phone were pleasant and helpful with options. They are on my short list for this job.Results to come.

These guys are simply the best! I needed a rim straightened and they were recommended. Honest, up-front guys, helped me out with a new tire as well. Great prices, great service. Treated me very well, which as a woman is so valued. I will be back for any other tire and wheel needs, and will send any business I can their way.

Excellent service overall and work. Very accommodating, and very efficient. I will be buying my tires and wheels from here from now on. Wish I knew about them before I bought my wheels and he tires. Have recommended them to all of my friends. They are very comfortable with all high-end cars, and low profile rims. Very honest, and their prices are by far the best.

After getting new tires a week or so ago (another installer), I felt like I was driving on a flat. I reached out to Sports Car Tire after seeing great reviews hoping they would help me regain confidence in my car. They listened to what I had to say, fixed a few things and assured me I was good to go. Sports Car Tire will get all of our business from now on!

I had an emergency where my wheel popped on a long trip I called them last minute and they let me come in. They fixed my two tires pretty quick, and very sufficiently. Most importantly they didn't scratch my chrome rims! Their prices are awesome, I couldn't ask for a cheaper price! Staff are very friendly, definitely recommend this place to anyone who takes pride in their car.

Sports Car Tire is one of those rare places where I trust the people there to treat my car like they would treat their own. The guys there truly care about doing good work and are "car guys". I used to use Tire Rack for my tires, but Sports Car Tire actually has better prices and, more imortantly, I know they will do high quality work and actually provide a faster turn-around.

Its kind of tricky when you first walk in...especially if you had a hard time finding the place. You may not know where to go for customer service. I have only had pleasant experience here. I feel confident when I leave here that the feet onmy car are well taken care of. I loved how they ordered the exact tires I need and they are ready the same day. Their referrals usually are decent.... (they could have kept the one for ASAP, smh). Most importantly they are authorities in tire and you can trust them.
