This place is awesome! I've been taking my SUV here for the past 3 years to swap my tires. I bought a set (tires and rims) for a lot less then what the BMW dealership was selling. They're fair and honest. They're good guys. read more

I purchased all four new tires for my 03 Pontiac sunfire about 5 months ago. When I completed a purchase, Hrvoje from Kipling Tire told me that another service they offer when you buy and install tires at Kipling Tires is a free tire rotation and recommended this service every 3 months, at every oil change. I came to do the rotation two months ago 1/2 hour before they closed for the day, and I was turned down. I went to do the rotation today, first I was yelled at to move my car out of the front parking lot, and after that the same guy who yelled at me told me in a rude manner that I am to line up at 7am if I want any service, and that I should;;ve done this way before winter - ??????? if you are selling and recommending service at your garage to be done every three months, then don't tell me to do it before winter, because one of those three times will always be in the winter, as winter is about 6 months long in Canada!!! Kipling Tire, you were all so sweet when you wanted to sell me something but when you are suppose to service something you promised for free , then you are trying to get out of it. Very disappointing! read more

Always great service They accommodated me even though I was a last minute walk in They are honest and don't try to rip you off I've been to lots of other places who try to rip you off but these guys are good. They always provide good customer service! read more

Amazing service, both beforehand in getting a quote for my winter tires, and at the shop in getting them installed (in and out in 20 minutes!). The shop is properly staffed both with service agents and mechanics so that any crowds are dealt with fast. One of the best experiences I have ever had in any work done on any car I have ever owned! read more

Kipling Tire is a solid business, they really go the extra mile. I wouldn't go anywhere else. Their prices are incredible, they know their products and they work fast! Nicest guys in the business. Truly. I can't say enough about them. read more

These guys are AWESOME! i came in to get 4 tires put on my beemer they put them on right away, they were fast and friendly. Price was great! Will definately come back again and that is coming from someone who lives in Niagara Falls!! read more

I can't praise these guys enough, I actually had to sign up to Yelp to post this review. Not only did they replace my two back tires that needed to be replaced, from the time that I called them to get a quote and pick up my car with the two new tires installed it was literally 40 minutes. They got me in right away, great service, and had me out the door in under 30 minutes. I would definitely recommend these guys if you're in the market for tires. Also found out they do everything else there so I'll definitely be taking my car back there for anything that it may need. read more

Be aware from this place ! I called the shop in the morning asking about an alternator change they said 250 $ could be more or less when I got there the guy said 2 hours labor plus alternator 670$.250$ just the part price.420$ for two hours labor? Too expensive, and poor customer service!!!! I ended up going to a Canadian Tire auto service cost me 400$ everything.The alternator cost me 170$ not 250$. .i don't recommend this place. read more

Took my wheels to them on Feb. 28, 2014. The summer tire were already on so they did nor have to make a change. - just store. They charged $150. Went back on Nov. 5, 2014 to have my wheels changed to winter tires and have the summer tires stored. They charged me another $189. Went back on Apr. 20 to have the summer tires put on. I took my winter tires out of there because I think I was grossly overcharged. They had stored my tires for a total of 14 months, made only 2 tire changes and charged a total of $339. Beware of their billing practices! read more

About two months ago I wrote an an unfavourable revue for Kipling Tyre and the next day someone from their shop phoned and said yes indeed, they had overcharged me and would send a cheque for the overcharge in the mail. Its about two months now and I am still waiting. It would seem that even when they admit to being in the wrong they are still not honourable enough to do the right thing. read more

I would recommend Justin and his team. Friendly and informative without overkill. I had to go to them today after reviewing on the BMW forums if there was anyone in Toronto who could put on tires correctly and consistently on a BMW 3 series. I have been using Active Tire on the Queensway and have been having issues with their work every season for the past 2 years. I had my summer tires with rims put on by Active Tire last week. They store them, and for that privilege I pay $200 a season. They said they balanced the tires, and off I went. I was driving on the highway and at 130km/hr I could feel a vibration throughout the car that only went away if I reduced speed. Instead of going back to Active Tire, I went to Kipling Tire. They told me after doing what they do, that one tire was unbalanced, and they corrected it. I left the shop and hit 140km/hr on the highway and the car felt great. Now if they could only store my tires, (I'm on a wait list) it would be a 5 star rating. Thanks Justin and Kipling Tire. Keep up the good work. read more

Justin and crew are top notch. We have been coming here for years and always great a great product at a fair price.

My check tires light went on, but I had no obvious issue. Found Kipling Tire on Yelp and it is near my house. Awesome service. Checked out the issue in no time, resolved it and sent me on my way. Great sports man cave they hangout in while you wait, which wasn't long. Will be my go to from now on. read more

I purchased a new set of winter tires from them and had them installed first thing in the morning. I had also asked that an oil change be done which was was not and the excuse I was given was that they're busy doing seasonal winter tire appointments. They had even reminded me that morning that I had added the oil change service and when I was given my truck back they said that there are other shops in the area that I can take it to. Absolutely terrible service. read more

It usually takes a lot for me to leave a negative review but unfortunately I need to document it! I had been going to KT for years and storing my tires. The prices were going up and up (25%+ in three years) so I stopped storing to save myself a little money. Last visit in April, my swap price had gone up to $50.00...when i questioned it, I was told it was due to the minimum wage increase. As they don't take appt's and my flexibility to take time off work is limited, I only just got in today to get my winters on. I know its a busy place but I find them quite rude and short -- I asked if they could just look at my brakes when they swapped the tires and it appeared to be a big deal (they were squeeking but done recently). I left my car and indicated I would be back in 4 hrs. 15 min later I get a call and say the work is completed!? I asked about my brakes, they said, yes, you will make it through the winter! Really? I'm pretty sure this person had no clue -- I then mentioned that I would be back at 5pm latest (what I said when I checked in) and the guy on the phone was like, well "you better be here before 5"! WOW, great customer service. I arrive at 4pm, go to pay my bill and get my keys and although the sign indicates the charge is $50.00 -- they ring me up and it's 67.00? I ask and all of a sudden it's more if you have an import!! Really? No one else does this nor does it say it anywhere! NEVER AGAIN! They may be helpful for folks in a jam, but are completely unfair with their prices. Kal Tire swaps out for 10.00 a tire ...doesn't matter what MAKE of car. I only went to Kipling as they stored! read more

Top notch place. I've been coming here for several years now, and just recently they managed to fit me into their busy Sunday; noticed I had kids and made a point to get us in. Truly appreciate it and turns me from dedicated customer into a fan of their business. read more

Never underestimate the power of good customer service! Everyone I have dealt with at Kipling Tire over the last year has been, knowledgeable and friendly! Keep up the good work! read more

Went in about a rattle I was hearing, told me it was my sway bar links and quoted me $685 for all 4 links. Links cost $15 for my car. I ended up changing them myself which took 2 hours total. They were telling me it was going to take 4 hours labor an hour each link. For those of you not so mechanically inclined, this is RIDICULOUS. read more

I had a tire change at this location and they told me they had placed all of the tires previously on my vehicle in my trunk. When I got home, only three of the four tire were in the trunk when I checked. When I called and asked about the missing tire they told me they would check and get back to me. They never did! read more

Called about some tires last week. Not winter tires left to the last minute but unfortunately I just needed two new ones at the busiest time of the year. The owner was very nice, and accommodating on the phone- asked me to come in the following week at a set time. When I arrived, I was informed that I had to wait aprox. 3-4 hours for two tires to be changed. When I asked if I could come back another time, and make another appt. I was informed they do not offer this option (first come first served!), and that I should have came in earlier(?) than the time I was asked to come(?). Why then make an appointment with me over the phone if not your policy!. I waited 5 days on the owners word, and could have found another place to assist me in that time. My guess is that since it's the busy season- all respect, and consideration for (previous) customers who could (potentially) be repeat business (multiple vehicles/years). I drove to Active Green & Ross a few doors down. In two days (the tires-$278 ea. ordered) will me on my vehicle- worth it to be given an exact appointment, and the respect/good service one should be able to expect at any time of the year!. I will advise others to avoid this place! read more

Wanted to give this place a try thanks to all the great reviews but not too impressed right now... I called ahead and was told you can't book to swap tires and it's first come first serve. Explained I can't take a day off work for this and my next few Saturdays are booked but could arrange to get off early and come by 4 on any weekday. Was told come by then on Thursday and it should be no problem so I make arrangements with work, show up at about 4, and get told sorry we're busy try again tomorrow. It's not exactly that easy to just skip out on my job, thanks! I would have appreciated being told honestly it likely wasn't doable and to not bother trying even if that meant turning away a customer (or, you know, just take appointments maybe?) rather than the blatant lack of care or respect for my time and work obligations. Glad so many people have a good experience here but I sure won't be trying again. read more

We recently moved back into the area and needed a mechanic to switch over our winter tires to summer tires. We Googled mechanics in the area and Kipling Tire came up. We read the reviews and gave them a call. From the get go the service people were prompt, courteous and accommodating. We drove over a half hour after speaking with them and were welcomed with a smile. We headed over to the 'lounge' next door to wait for the vehicle. A short while later, we were advised that the summer tires we had were on their last leg, or should we say tread. Kipling Tire advised us of a few replacement options. In the end, we chose the higher standard tire. Kipling Tire could have stuck with that order, however, a delayed shipment of tires came in and they were able to offer us tires at a reduced price. The savings was welcome news... the honesty and integrity was most appreciated. Well done Kipling Tire! read more
