    Super incredible service. I found these guys through Reddit and needed to get my brakes replaced…read morelast minute. I called in today, and they asked me to come by first so they could properly diagnose the issue. They inspected both my front and rear brakes and confirmed that the grinding noise was coming from the rear pads. They were completely honest and let me know my front pads still had plenty of life left, instead of trying to upsell me on parts I didn't need. After confirming the issue, they ordered the parts, which arrived within about an hour. Once the parts came in, they knocked out the brake job in just 30-40 minutes. Super fast, transparent, and professional from start to finish. They also topped off my fluids and filled my tires, which I really appreciated. They walked me through everything and showed me exactly what was going on, which made me feel like I could truly trust their honesty--unlike some other shops that might try to say you definitely need new rotors or extra work done. Very fair pricing as well. I couldn't have asked for better service. If you're looking for a trustworthy shop, come support this small business--they clearly know what they're doing. I'll definitely be coming back here 100%. Thanks again.

    I always pass by since I work near and always notice the AE86 since that was my childhood dream…read morecar, but since I got to do smog checks on my cars, I found out they do it too and ever since then, I took multiple cars here for smog check for reasonable prices. I also did Differential Fluid on my GT86 since I don't want to deal with lifting up lowered cars and they finish it before quote time! Wally also a great guy and know what he's doing for sure, coming from someone in automotive schools. Keep in mind if your older than 2000's or lack OB2, you might need to take to different places but other than that, I would recommend coming here for quick smog checks or other basic maintenance.

    Dear Big O Tires San Mateo Management,…read more I am writing to share my appreciation for the excellent service I have received at your San Mateo location. I have been bringing my vehicle to this shop for my last five oil changes and inspections required for ride-sharing, and each time I have left completely satisfied. Your team is professional, knowledgeable, and consistently goes above and beyond to make customers feel important. I especially want to highlight Alonzo; he always ensures that I am well taken care of and provides a level of service that is truly impressive. It is clear that you have a great team of hardworking individuals who take pride in their work. I will continue to bring my business to this location and recommend it to others. Best regards, Vernel Primus

    Very dishonest business. I came in wanting help with a flat tire. Rodrigo said my calipers were…read morerubbing against my rotor and needed an immediate $1.5k fix. I wanted validation of that first. Rodrigo came out to show me and was making up all sorts of stuff like feel the grooves, it needs a replacement. Still not convinced as I wasn't getting a straight answer to how many mm are left with proof, I went under the car and took this picture. There is more than 50% left, about 70% of a full pad. The little low pad warning visual helper notch is still there as well. Are the clerks incentivized to make one time sales over running a honest business? Please make good win-win long term decisions for yourself Big O. I appreciate the tire repair but not the dishonest upsell. An honest gauge of where my brakes are with a plan to follow up would have made the sale, not lying repeatedly and dodging my validating questions. Thanks, a local nearby would-be regular customer
