    I would recommend Tire Choice Auto Service Center in Albany to anyone. My wife and I were running errands in Albany/El Cerrito when I realized that one of our tires was losing air quickly. First, I tried the Costco tire center – they were totally booked up. I called the Tire Choice Auto Service Center in Albany and spoke with Victor. He explained that he was fairly busy, so he might not be able to repair it today, but he'd at least put on the spare for me. When we got there, I had to remove a box of dishes we were taking to Goodwill from the trunk so we could access the spare tire. As I was trying to do that, several plates fell through the bottom of the box and shattered on the cement floor, creating a mess, which I cleaned up as well as I could. Victor told me not to worry. He pulled off the damaged tire, found the nail, patched the hole explaining his method as he went, and replaced the repaired tire. All this took him about 15 minutes. Victor is not only very good at what he does, he was extremely kind and patient. When we do need new tires, this is where I plan to go.

    I had such a wonderful experience at Tire Choice in Albany! I stopped by yesterday after noticing my front left tire kept losing pressure, even after inflating it several times over the past few weeks. I was warmly welcomed by Greg Allen, the Store Manager, who was nothing short of exceptional from the very first moment. Although the shop was fully booked for the day, Greg kindly invited me to return the next morning at 8am so he could properly take care of my car. True to his word, his team promptly inspected the tire, found a nail lodged inside, and repaired it quickly and professionally. To my complete surprise, Greg generously refused to charge me. Beyond his technical expertise, Greg brings something even more special to the experience — genuine kindness, integrity, and a true dedication to serving the community. His warm welcome, generous heart, and big smile truly made my day. Thank you, Greg, for going above and beyond. I will absolutely be back and highly recommend Tire Choice Albany to anyone looking for honest, skilled, and caring service!

    I won't go into details but the atmosphere (fox news blaring) and customer service was awful, not to mention I got another flat moments after a full tire inspection and buying a new tire and getting it put on. (maybe a coincidence, but maybe not). The first time, they left the tire valve cap loose on the brand new replacement tire, and the second time, my tire was missing the cap completely (although had one on before). Hmm. If you're not of a *certain demographic*, seems like you might be in trouble here, if you know what I mean. Go somewhere else more trusted.

    I have been meaning to write a good review of this place for a few years. It all started with my encounter with Greg who assisted me with a low tire. From that encounter I became loyal to having my tires purchased and serviced there. My loyalty grew to having my oil changes there as well. Today my headlights were not working so my first thought was to try Tire Choice. That is when I met Stephanie. With professionalism and courtesy she helped me resolve my issue. Good customer service seems to be a dying art. I always receive it at Tire Choice. I highly recommend Tire Choice for your service needs.

    "I love this place," I recently texted my husband, referring to this particular Tire Choice Auto Service Center. And it wasn't even the first time I'd done so. So why do I love this place? I think it comes down to the manager, Greg. He's helpful and looks out for the customer's best interest. For example, when I told him I would be having a bunch of repairs and services done on my car, he told me I could save money on the brake pads by buying them myself and having someone at his store install them. Sure enough, that saved me multiple hundreds of dollars. Most recently, I was treated to a free tire inspection and patch. I brought in a car that still has its original tires (i.e., not purchased at this store), one of which was losing air, despite having been reinflated at home with a compressor. The mechanic found a nail in the tire, removed it, and patched the hole. When I went to pay for the patch and labor, Greg simply handed me his business card. "Just leave us a Google review," he said. Based on the store's stellar Google reviews and rating, I can tell I'm not the only one Greg and his team treat like the most important customer in the world. I'm so glad I found this store, because I know my car is in good hands.
