Best Tire Buy

Still after 19 years this is the only place to go for brakes at the best rate. $ 130 for rear brakes and machine the drums to a Chevy Uplander. Check around, you can’t beat it. And it’s an honest good company. Not only have I been coming here by everyone I referred has been satisfied returning customers.

They JUST DO TIRES, so the give you a good deal and do it fast. This place is old-​school! If you want good old-​fashioned service this is the place to come.

I went in for an alignment, pay and went home trusting their work. My car still felt funny so I took somewhere else and they said my alignment was still off. Went back asking for an explanation and my money back because I couldn’t trust their work any more and they refused to do it. DON’T TRUST THEIR PLACE TO FULLEST, THEIR LOW PRICES MIGHT DISAPPOINT YOU!!!

The customer service and Honesty is the best I’ve ever seen from a mechanic. My Dad is a mechanic but since he’s older now he can’t see too well. He came with me to make sure no one took advantage of a female that doesn’t know too much about cars. That’s when the manager told me what’s wrong explained everything and gave me a fair price. Honest is the key here, when mechanics lie it costs more to fix their lie.

I’ve been a customer since the late 90s. Roy takes great care of his customers with the best attitude ever and always a smile on his face!

My favorite tire placed moved so I searched for a new one. Struck gold. I love this place. Old time values. Customer service above all and knowlegable staff, you cannot ask for more. They dont try to look fancy run fake deals, they give you a fair price and back their work. Its hard to find trustworthy businesses nowadays but this is one.

Not many shops will do Tube tires any more. Roy hooked me up fast and at a great price. He even has the bizarre wrench for the MGB wheels!

Came in to get all four tires. I called a few places and this place had the best prices. Was in and out in a little over and hour. They have a decent waiting area. but its close to a lot of shops and food places if you want to walk around. I will use this place again

Roy Lauder and crew are the best!!! I have taken all my tire and brake work to Best Tire Buy since it was in San Diego @ the corner of 10^th and Market. Roy is a straight shooter and if he can’t help you he will know someone who can. I totally trust the work done by Roy and his crew. They stand behind their work.

I just bought tires, oil change and had the brakes checked. These people are the best. They will not screw you. I have trusted them for years.

Honest guys. Honest pricing. These days it’s easy to get caught up in corporate America type shops, but it’s actually «fun» to go to a mechanic like Best Tire Buy that seems like he’s been there since the 1960s. Owner Roy is nice and the other guys work hard. I’ve been there a number of times, but today was there because I had accidentally locked my trailer hitch cotter pin on in a way that would not come off without being cut off. They only charged me $ 5 to torch it off, and it was done in a few minutes. Anywhere else would have been an hour and $ 50.

I work in the area, so its very convenient to drop off my car to get worked on here. The owner Roy is very professional, honest, and always is the one helping me. The best thing about this place is that being an auto shop, they are extremely honest and you dont have to wonder if they are going to rip you off or anything. I got tires for 4 different cars here, had a rear axle seal replaced and brakes done… and had no problems with anything. Good honest place!

The only reason I’m not giving them a 5 is due to the hours; it’s a bugger to get in there; but SO worth it.
They do tires, brakes, etc. And they’ll even do a diagnostic for the check engine light to the tune of 25 BUCKS. Yep, you saw right, $ 25 bucks. We couldn’t find anyone to do it for less than $ 80 to start the process.
We’ve purchased tires from them for over 7 years on various vehicles and they are ALWAYS cheaper and better and they don’t try to SELL UP if you know what I mean. We always price around to three or four other shops to keep on top of prices and he is always the best.
Once we even took our Echo in for rear brakes and he told us; you still have miles to go on them … don’t need them yet. Gotta LOVE that.
Independently run and super nice people. If you need tires, call a ahead and he’ll get them and I have no doubt for less than anyone else; why, because he doesn’t have to pay a manager and a supervisor and a clerk, etc.
