I was in a bind the other day and I needed a special key for my lug nuts. I was offering to pay the man inside of rent a wheel and he just gave it to me for free. Told me you have a nice day. What a great place and great customer service I recommend them to everyone.

Inflated tires but not inflated prices! đ„ Harold, Dan and Alex took GREAT care of me. They let me know before I showed up that I might have to wait a bit, but they got my car in the bay within a couple minutes of arriving, as they were in between jobs at that time.
I just had a nail in my tread that needed pulled and patched, and I was in and out in probably <15 minutes even though they took the tire off and patched it internally. I didnât even have time to finish another Google review I was writing.
They offer the cheapest tire patch job in the area, $20ish they said on the phone, (some people charging $35+tax!!! đ€Ż) and they actually didnât even charge me! I asked what I owed them and the owner said âJust a smile!!â
Wow. Great service and great people. Means a lot when the price of everything else is so high (in actuality, the value of the dollar is dropping) and that sort of kindness is a high indicator of honest business. (Especially in auto shops. Most people are clueless about automotive repair and lots of shops charge an ignorance tax. Not these guys.)
They know itâs a quick job and patches donât cost much, and theyâre not trying to make a quick buck off something that is a legitimate safety concern. Iâd say thatâs actually community service.
The atmosphere is chill too. Cold AC inside and the chairs are surprisingly comfortable. Wasnât there for new rims, but they have the store packed with them and have lots of options to choose from.
I wouldnât be mad at paying their asking price in the future, especially on a busier day when they have bigger jobs to attend to. But make sure you tip the shop tech if they ever hook you up like that. Gotta make it worth peopleâs time.
Thanks again, RAW! đ
