I recently had my Lexus leaking oil, so much that I couldn't drive it. Not knowing what was going on, I called AAA to have it towed. but to where? I'd been going to the now gone Pep Boys in West Seattle. After a very brief online search in Yelp I decided on Courtesy tire. With parking and a convenient night drop, the AAA driver and I left it in the Courtesy parking lot. They called me first thing in the morning to let me know it's a rubber cooling hose. By then I'd had a little time to research and knew that I didn't want it replace with a likely to break rubber hose again, but asked if they could use a metal one, which they obliged. It wasn't cheap, but I really think you get what you pay for and I like to support West Seattle businesses. I've since brought in my Honda for a wheel bearing gone bad and once again had a great experience. Can recommend! read more

Rude staff, overpriced, and unprofessional. Les Schwab is in the same neighborhood and infinitely better

Super friendly staff and eager to help. Got my two front tires replaced quickly and the guy helped me pick some tires that didn't break the bank but were still good for my needs. I'm naive about cars so I always appreciate when I'm not pushed overly expensive things I don't need. Will come back to do my back tires soon! read more

Sevice was ok and staff was very polite; however they had multiple miscommunications and conflicting messages about the availablity of parts and my appointment. When I was picking up my car, I saw one of their staff back a customers truck into the wall damaging the mirror. read more

John and the team at Courtesy Tire were very professional and upfront about the repair needed on my vehicle. Turnaround time was very fast for what I needed repaired, and the price was much lower than I anticipated. I appreciate the team on the service that was provided and they come highly recommended! read more

Stopped in here on Christmas Eve and they were able to quickly repair my tire and get me on my way. Very friendly staff, I would happily return. read more

In the past few months, Courtesy Tire has rotated my tires, added air to my tires, and measured tire tread. In each instance, everyone I interacted with was professional, friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I cannot remember a time when I had to deal with anything car-related and left feeling great about the interactions and service I received like I have here. Thank you to the team at Courtesy Tire, you'll always get my tire business! read more

I'd give 10 stars if I could! I live in the neighborhood and have been a regular customer of Courtesy Tire for about 7 years. They are my go-to for everything from tire repairs (I seem to run over a disproportionate number of nails) and oil changes to replacing batteries, alternators, filters, you name it. As much as I hate having any kind of car issue, I can always rely on Tim, Kelly & team to take great care of my car and be honest and fair in their assessment. They have earned my trust and repeat business over the years and I would recommend Courtesy Tire to anyone! read more

From the first step of calling to make an appointment to entering the establishment they make you feel respected and that they will be professional, courteous and timely. Which they were! I am so happy that I found this place as I will be a repeat customer. Cannot say enough good things! read more

The aggressive upsell undertaken by the front counter staff was totally off-putting. I brought my car in after making an appointment online for a simple oil change, tire rotation and new windshield wipers. Upon dropping it off, I asked for an estimate of the charges. It being a rather simple job, I was expecting a rather simple answer. Instead, I got a we don't know until we take a look. I left and when I returned I saw my vehicle being serviced in the garage. The counter man said my bill was ready and to come take a look. When I got to the counter he presented me with a bill for over $700. I saw a list of items, none of which included the oil change, tire rotation and wipers. I asked him what this bill was...he said it was the recommended service for my vehicle approaching the 60K mile mark. He urged me to do the service since I was so close to 60K. I told him no and asked him where my real bill was and how much it was going to be...he said he'd prepare it. I asked him how much, he said $224 which I felt was high for the services requested. When he actually prepared the bill it was for $166 which seems about right. It's one thing to say hey, by the way, it's almost time for your 60K maintenance, would you like to see a list and the cost? It's other thing to call you up to the counter under the pretense of showing you your bill and instead showing you a prepared bill for work never requested and then encourage you to have it done. It's clearly SOP for this business. I won't be going back. read more

Highly Recommended! Jon, is amazingly nice and helpful. Thank You So Much! I don't know a thing about car maintenance. Thank you, again Courtesy Tire Team! read more

As a 26 year West Seattle resident (and multiple car owner) I've done business with most of the local shops at onetime or another. Courtesy is outstanding to work with. Kelly and Tim run a great shop with a skilled team. Quality work done with integrity. Beyond the typical tires, brakes, and oil changes their techs are great at tracking down other issues. More than once I've brought a car in with the expectation of a major problem, and then received a call with a simpler less expensive solution. Courtesy has earned my trust through deeds not words. read more

My wife drove over a screw. I was hopeful that it was reparable and I dropped her car off with them mid morning. I was told that there were five others already in front of me, but they would get in fixed as soon as they could. They called at 1:15pm to say it was repaired and ready for me to pick it up. Total bill was less than the $40. I was thrilled. read more

Courtesy Tire - Screw in the tire tread that they were able to repair. - Tires Near Me - Seattle, Washington

This month, during a very cold night, rodents got into my car engine and caused some serious damage. I called Courtesy and they helped me coordinate having it towed there after hours. Prior to the tow, a mechanic acquaintance of mine took a peak and let me know that I would probably need to replace the wiring harness which could costs thousands. The staff at Courtesy Tire took it upon themselves to go above and beyond to find the best possible solution. They spent hours researching and locating a part that they thought would fit and eliminate having to replace the harness. The part arrived in a couple of business days and it worked great. I ended up spending under $500 instead of a couple grand because of their knowledge, expertise and outstanding customer care. The mechanics at Courtesy are smart, innovative, creative and passionate about the work. I couldn't be happier with my experience with them. I highly recommend this crew. read more

Courtesy Tire - Rodent damage. They went to town. - Tires Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I have been taking my family vehicles here for almost a decade now. They have the friendliest staff and owners. The have swapped my tires, done wheel balancing and alignment, repaired tires with plugs more times then I can count with same day service. Communication is great and prices are beyond fair for the service they offer. The are very reputable and family owned. I stopped going to the National chain shops after I found Tim, Kelly and Ray. Ask for either of them and you'll be take care of. I'm so lucky to have them in my neighborhood read more

See all

Very helpful and responsive and easy to arrange service. Went in for new tires and a vehicle inspection. Gave us a call with recommendations on next steps and completed all work in one business day. Would recommend! read more

One of my breaks failed and I called the next morning to see if they could fix it. I got my car in and they checked it out right away. Got my break fixed and the rest of the breaks replaced that same day. I was impressed with the speed of service. The price was pretty reasonable as well. Thanks guys, 10/10 read more

I didn't even know this place existed until I ended up with a broken valve stem after filling up my tires so I could head out on my honeymoon. Terrible timing. After calling every other local tire shop at 3pm on a Saturday, and being told "No way can we help you today." I was told to try Courtesy Tire. I called and spoke with Kelly who was empathetic to my situation, and told me to come in when I could and he would take care of it. True to his word, he got my valve stem replaced in probably 15-20 minutes, even with a full garage full of cars. Very friendly, honest, reliable, quick, and quality service with a personal touch. Don't miss this gem tucked away just off of the corners of Erskine and Edmunds on California Ave. They tell me they're a full service shop, so I will definitely be bringing my vehicles here for everything. read more

I wanted to work with Courtesy Tire of West Seattle to maintain and repair a 2007 Honda Element. It's my daughter's car, and we work together to make sure it runs and keeps running. It was stalling/rough idle in reverse. Irritating, but that engine requires valve adjustments every 90K miles (or so). No big deal. Takes a couple of hours. Might replace the gaskets. Let's say... 2.5 hours of labor, and a $40 part from FEL. Nope. Courtesy Tire already charged (and we paid) a $175 "Diagnostic Fee" equivalent to more than an hour of labor to spend the five minutes it takes to determine "Valve Adjustment" because it doesn't throw a code, and you diagnose it by listening. The only way you can tell if the valves needs adjusting is by pulling the valve cover and measuring the clearance... which typically results in an immediate adjustment... since you're already in there. Yada yada. So, I would say we were charged $175 for someone to say, "probably needs a valve adjustment." Happens. Not ethical. But it happens. Got a quote for the valve adjustment. It came out to more than $600 with tax. On a four cylinder. Honda. In the quote they listed $106$ for this part: https://www.autozone.com/external-engine/valve-cover-gasket/p/fel-pro-valve-cover-gasket-vs50614r/918095_0_0 Not a similar part or something kinda close... the SAME part from the SAME manufacturer with the SAME part number... which you can buy (same part/same sku) from AutoZone for $39.00. That's a 170% markup. And when I called to ask about why they felt it was a good idea to charge almost $800 for a valve adjustment on a 4-cylinder Honda (when dealers charge $350 all in), I was delivered a patronizing slug of "we only use original parts" and "that's what we charge" and "You can find anything on the internet" and a vacuous defense of a $175 markup "diagnostic fee." I don't understand from the other reviews how folks feel this is quality, fair, or an ethical way to do business. Between that and the $155/hour bench fee... you can do better most other places. How could they do better?: Diagnostic fees come off the cost of the repair if it's done with the service station doing the diagnostics. They should get paid for their time... just not twice. Parts at cost, or parts at cost + 15% service fee for opening the Autozone bag (where do you suppose they get those parts anyways?) Those two things and a less patronizing attitude would have lowered the cost of a valve adjustment by $250.. and they would have had my business and more to come. read more

Great experience at Courtesy Tire! Prompt service, very transparent about pricing, and patient/knowledgable about all of my questions. Thank you! read more

These guys know their business of fixing cars and making them purr. Don't dis them if they are irritable or brusque in the moment .They are hard workers.Have kept my car in shape for 15 years. read more

I've taken my car to this spot several times. And, they did a fantastic job! They repaired my oxygen sensor, motor mounts, purge valve, oil change (thoroughly done), and many more. I couldn't thank them for their excellent work and care on my car. I urge you to book an appointment and leave your by 9am so they can do a thorough diagnostic on your car to give you details. Because, you can do a free diagnostic check at autozone, but they find stuff way more! So, do give em a chance because I went and took my car there several times. read more

Staff in the front was super rude when I asked for a quote, guess I won't be bringing my business here then? Lol

Had and awesome experience getting my truck tires switched out for new ones and balanced. The guys at Courtesy answered all my questions in a clear way and I like that they put seat and steering wheel covers on to protect my cab from grease stains. Will definitely go there again. read more

I can't say enough good things about Courtesy Tires in West Seattle. Tim, Kelly and their staff go out of their way to provide excellent car servicing and superb customer satisfaction. Thank You, Maureen Kearney read more

Brought my car in to get an oil change and they called me to say I needed to replace filters and flush transmission. My friends and family all said I paid too much so I looked at top average cost for all and looks like I paid $100 too much. The invoice makes no sense parts they used does not equal what they explain on the invoice. I don't get why the reviews are so good and that is why I based bringing my car into this place. I feel like as a woman bringing their car in and with no researching before you say yes; you really get taken advantage of. Guess I need to find a new place... read more

They are great, honest, helpful and close to home! I recently went in and it was going to take 3 days to get my tire. I was able to find it more quickly and they were so nice about it. read more

@Kelly S. I had my wheel bearing replaced, tires balanced and rotated and an alignment. As I drove off I felt my vehicle pulling to the left and after hitting a rough patch on the road that my suspension or shocks were not handling it as well as it did previously. In fact it felt like I had no shocks at all and my tires were bouncing up and down. I wasted no time and called courtesy tire with in 6 to 7 mins and returned right away. I informed them of all issues and they said it's because I have frame damage that they couldn't align it properly and that I needed to take it to a frame shop. If that was the case??? Why did y'all continue the work and charge me for it. Also My vehicle didn't previously have frame damage nor has it ever been in a wreck. Less than 50k miles. I also told the mechanics about a tire pressure light that was on and all they did was reset it. They didn't even take it in or put it on the lift to see if there was any issues. The tire pressure light came back on within 10 mins from leaving. I would love to take my vehicle back in so someone could actually look at it and figure out what went wrong with the previous work but I'm sure it would be a waste of my time as the first experience was. read more

Waited until I dropped my car off to tell me they couldn't fix my tire because there's foam on the inside.

They've swapped tires , done an alignment and brakes on my SUV and every time was done so with responsiveness and professionalism and fair pricing. Go to neighborhood spot since my dealer is 30min away. read more

I used to come here a lot. But I didn't recognize any of the front staff. Was the business sold? Anyways, I took my car in to get breaks done. After inspection I was called and informed it would be a little over $1000.00 for full all for breaks, transmission flush and oil change. I was a little shocked but ok. Then I came to pick my car up. It was a little over $1700.00. I said that's not was I was quoted. The guy said "that's what I told you". No he did not. Clearly I was taken advantage of because I a women. Every man I've told this story to say I was ripped off. Never go back there again. read more

This is my new auto shop and I really love it, they took great care of me, very knowledgeable and competent, so I will be going back and using them, and Tim, the owner provides great customer service. Thumbs Up! read more

Thanks so much for your help in a stressful time guys! read more

I've been going there for years. Great, reliable service! .

I blew out a tire tonight about 2 hours before they closed in my newer honda (hondas no longer come with spare tires so that wasnt an option). I pulled into their parking lot and they fit me in and had it done for me tonight even though they were busy with other repairs so that I didn't have to leave my car overnight. I can't thank them enough for making a annoying day painless. read more
