Had my inner and outer tie rod & lower ball joints replaced on my 2001 Honda accord yesterday & They made the car feel brand new, sat safely in there lot & the service was quick and proper. Not only that the price was amazing. Very highly recommended!

Amherst Tire is the best. I've had most of my auto work done here over the years and they do great work. Rich and the crew are honest, straightforward, and super helpful. The work gets done fast and accurately. A+ everytime!

Rich and his team are wonderful! They replaced my tires, were friendly, didn't try to upsell me on things I didn't need and were honest about the price. Paid a fair amount and am extremely happy! Would highly recommend.

We have been going to Amherst Tire for years - and continue to go because of their wonderful service. Rich takes time to listen to our concerns and is always helpful. We really appreciate having a local mechanic we know and trust (in contrast to a big dealer); we highly recommend Rich and Amherst Tire. Five stars plus!

Will definitely be back if I ever need to. Outstanding service! Super friendly and knowledgeable. Went in for an oil change and they found the drain plug had been damaged/stripped. Advised me on the next steps I should take on getting that fixed by the last mechanic I went to who had damaged it. Provided me with everything else I needed to get around safely until I can get it fixed. One of the nicest things anyone has done for me and I ll be forever grateful! Great group of guys, I ll always recommend them.

I give one star because there is no lower rating available.A couple of years ago I moved out of state. Before I left, I had Amherst Tire perform an inspection of my car and to do a front end alignment. They called and told me my front tire were worn and not safe to drive on. So on their recommendation, I purchased two new tires and had them installed.Today I found my passenger side front tire flat. I had roadside service respond to change the tire. When the technician removed the tire from the car, he showed me where it had previous been repaired with a plugged. When the tire was inflated, we found it was leaking air from the plug.Note, I ve had no work of any kind performed on these tires since I purchased them.Amherst Tire had sold ma a tire that had previously been repaired (plugged) and had passed it off, as well as charged me for, a New tire. All without my knowledge.Like most, I am no mechanic and rely on the trustworthiness of the people who I do business with. Amherst Tire misled, took advantage of, and downright lied to me. What are the chances that I m the one and only person they ve done this too?I guess the old adage, buyer beware applies businesses who call themselves professional and with whom we place our trust in.Extremely DisappointedJim Keedy

This place is far more invested in getting you back on the road than making a buck. If they ve got the resources to do the work, this is the only place I ll bring my old Xterra.Rich searches for ways to save you money and time, never upsells and might not even charge you, depending on the job.Everyone here is kind and patient and goes the extra mile to help you understand what s going on with your vehicle in the simplest terms possible.Categorically honest and fair, knowledgeable as can be. They ve got a loyal customer in me as long as I live here.

Tried to get snow tires from Amherst Tire this week. Called them 1 month ago and was told they only had 2 tires in stock and to come in when they open at 7:30am to get them changed out.Called them again this week and again they only had 2 tires in stock and suggested I come in ASAP to try to get them changed.First day - Arrived 7:40am. They were already booked through for the day. Theu suggested I leave my car in the lot before they close at 4:30pm so that it's already in the bay the next day. I had errands to run and decided to come early the next day instead.Second day - Arrived 7:15am. There was no room in the parking lot. Walked in through the door and was asked why I'm there. I was surprised they didn't recognize me since I was literally in there the previous day. I told him I'm dropping my car off for snow tires and he told me he's already booked for the day... again... He suggested I leave my car in the lot overnight so that they can work on it in the morning. Then he told me that most people drop their car off in the lot after the work day in the evening. He didn't give that option to me the day before... so it looks like other people took my spot.I don't understand how you can promise to work on someone's car and then send them away two days in a row.At that point I left and called Russ at Northampton Tire and he took me in this morning to change out my tires and also fix up my bumper. I came 15 minutes late but they still happily took me in. Total was cheaper than what Amherst Tire quoted, btw.

Friendly service sure, but $76 for an oil change is a SCAM and ridiculous. Inflation does not jack up the price that much. Definitely taking advantage of college students who don't know better or have no better options. Will not come back again.

Today, on 11/18/22 at 430pm, a half hour before closing, my 83 yr old mother limped her car into the parking lot from a flat tire. They told her they were closing in five minutes (even though they close at 5pm) and that she could leave her car there and they would look at it tomorrow. She had somewhere to be so she called my wife and they attempted to change the tire with the donut but they couldn't loosen the nuts. They called me and I arrived to see my mother and wife trying to change the tire. There were three employees there and not one offered to assist them. Picture that, two small ladies changing a tire at the City Tire parking lot right in front of their picture window, with 3 employees who change tires for a living, ignoring them. They called me and I arrived to change the tire. When I got there, they were walking to their cars to go home and they didn't so much as look at us...not one word, not even a fake care in the world...They left at 450pm when they are supposed to close at 5pm. As long time Amherst residents and people who work in town, they will never see us as customers ever...nor would they seem to care less.

Honest and friendly service. Got a flat tire, patched it up instead of selling me a new one.

There are several mixed reviews about this place, and YMMV, but I've always had a great experience here. I've had to go in several times over the years for oil changes and tire repairs. They've always treated me with respect and have never tried to up-sell me. On one occasion, I went in expecting to have to buy a new tire; however, they came back and told me they'd be able to patch it instead, saving me hundreds of dollars and even rotating my tires for free while they were at it. Another time I went in, I intended to have new brake pads put on, but they were able to resurface the ones I already had instead, again saving me a lot of money.

They helped me find the right tires based on what I needed, both in terms of my car and my finances. Highly recommend them, especially for anyone who does not know alot about cars. Very respectful and do not rip you off.

They took good care of my car for the year or so that I went there, and they have good deals on services. For example, if you get tires from them, you have a warranty on them and free tire rotations for life.If I still lived in the area, I would still be taking my car there.

Tires are fairly priced and the counter folks will not try to up-sell with you fear tactics.If you walked into the Hadley Firestone they will intimidate you with every play in the sales book. Why? Because they are told to push you to buy anything and everything. @Hadley Firestone I was quoted $300 not including labor for two new tires.Amherst tire are real people. The main counter person quoted me on several tires for my vehicle. No scare tactics no up-sells. Final price two new tires: 250, labor included. Well worth it.

Was turned away. Told my tires were dead and not worth the alignment. Was also told I was sold the wrong size tires, further research shows my tires are stock. They were very nice but i do not appreciate the scare tactics.

Quoted me almost double the price to replace a control arm vs two other mechanics. They certainly look for prey. At least they re polite about it.

I thought I needed four new wheels after bringing my car to another shop, but the very helpful guys here actually took a look at the rims and were able to get me back on the road with just some new tires!
