I had a flat tire, and visited memo's for help. They replaced my tire for about $50, and I was only there for about 30 minutes. I did come right when they opened in the morning. Their service is amazing - affordable, speedy, and very friendly too. Would recommend to anyone needing some tire help!! read more

Amazing service. Quick, cheap, and well done. He was able to provide me different options to choose from and made sure I was satisfied with the pricing. 10/10 read more

Following from his other location to current. Very pleasant an honestly is importance to me.

Had a great experience. They had great costumer service and helped patch my tire and will definitely be back if needed.

What a wonderful man. My brand new tire needed air and since he is right off the fwy exit, I stopped and asked if he would air up my tire. He didn't charge me anything. I shared my new tire story, he gave me some sound advice about my tire. Great service. Support this business! read more

Guillermo (Memo) is a complete tire Guru. I got a flat nearby, changed my tire, but stopped by to make sure everything was ok before I made the trek back to The Valley. He was so helpful, patient, informative and definitely put the customer first in every possible way. Ultimately I will have to buy a new tire, but he assessed all possibilities and ultimately advised me on the best route for my wallet and safety. I would happily drive an hour out of my way for to get this kind of service. Thank you Memo read more

This was a pleasant surprise for once. I have to say normally for any car repairs I try to rotate through some local shops to find someone I can trust and build a long term relationship with. The reason why I say this is because of the common issues we run into when it comes to vehicle maintenance. We go into a shop to get something fixed and either they pretend to fix something and fish you along to fix something else or the shop will tell you will need 10 other items fixed. I'm not really a car guy but from my previous experiences I had one item fixed 3 times. This not only took a lot of time to pick up the car and to take it back and have someone pick you up everytime. I side tracked, but Memo (the owner) met me when I pulled up. I told him I needed an alignment and tire replacement. He told me it's better I get some tired first since he didn't have my size and come back so he can do a proper alignment. At the end I told him to add a tire rotation so I can rotate my good tires to the front so he can do his alignment since I have front wheel drive. It took about 40 minutes for the alignment. Then I asked what other services they offered. He mentioned they can do a lot of mechanical services to the vehicle. Just ask since they have a mechanic by the name Mario on hand. I was ok, I have Honda pilot that the brakes are squealing when I drive. Can they look into it and give me a price? After a quick drive around they determined I need to mill down the rotors and to replace the brakes. They gave me an awesome price and stayed way past closing hours to return my car to me that same day. This is service above and beyond. I told him I'll spread the word on yelp for his business. He didn't even know people reviewed on yelp for him. If that's not a small mom and pop, I don't know what is? Pro tip, if you know it's a long service on your vehicle and you're not wanting to Uber home and back. Go shopping south around Ross, 5 below, or even have lunch nearby. There's an ok buffet called Paradise Buffet that you definitely can kill some time there. read more

Unless I move out of SoCal I will never get my tires serviced anywhere else. Memo is honest, friendly and honestly wants to help you out. His prices aren't ridiculous and you feel satisfied when driving away. Can't recommend him enough. read more

Nice guy. Very honest. Got a screw in my tire and he patched it up in under 30 mins for $25. Probably would have been faster if he didn't get a delivery in when I was there. I highly recommend. read more

It's too hard to explain. Meaning, if you need help, Memo will help you. He's skilled, equipped, and inventoried with many options, especially if you are in a jam and don't want or can't spend a lot of money. He'll figure out a good solution for you for much less cost than most shops. Nicest most helpful person in the tire space I've ever met. Don't bother calling him, just go there and let him understand your full situation and let him work his creative Magic'. Please: if you can tell that he's undercharging you, just go ahead and give him extra. Don't take advantage of his soft heart. Memo is a wonderful fellow, please reciprocate the goodness he extends to you. read more

Had my 4runner aligned here after getting a lift put on - friendly staff and honest. Really great work and very professional. Would recommend and come back. read more

Memo's Tires - Tires Near Me - Monterey Park, California

16 months or so ago, my friend who is a professional in the automotive industry recommended Memo's tires, as we live near by. As a female driver, I always feel like I have a "sucker" written on my forehead because I truly am not educated on a motor vehicle & its components, such as something as important as the tires ! ( that's why I'm a member of AAA roadside assistance of 20 yrs). I was driving a 1999 Avalon still in good running condition but had a problem with a nail stuck in one tire and air was leaking out. I told Mr Memo I was going to replace the car in the next 9 months, so I didn't want to spend a lot of money on a tire & was ok with a second hand one. He quoted me about $50 and helped remove & replace and then added air to all 4 tires. I paid cash to support my local independent small business owner. I don't know if $ 50 is a reasonable or expensive price for a 2nd hand tire but I knew I needed a replacement & my budget was very limited. I could have gone to a car repo spot ( one in El Monte) & gotten a tire for $20 but no way I could replace the tire myself. One of the jobs in life that I will forever outsource...therefore, $50 was reasonable to me for the entire work. Mr Memo is knowledgeable and a pleasant professional in my experience. Fast forward to beginning of Dec, my new (2nd hand) electric car now needed more air and I went back to Mr Memo. He added air to all 4 tires again & helped reviewed the treads of the tires & said they were newish condition and do not need replacement. He even helped me add the new license plate holder which I needed longer nails but didn't have them ( I was going to go to Home Depot to buy the screws and then a DIY job). I asked him to help me and he did both jobs; ALL FREE OF CHARGE! :D I was quite delighted!!! Although he didn't charge me, I gave him a tip. I will always support independent business owners especially when good professional service is provided. read more

Memo is amazing. Fast, reliable and great pricing. He was honest and did all he could to help this clueless woman! Thank you so much. Will definitely return! read more

If my vehicles need anything that have to do with tires this is the place. I have only dealt with Memo the owner. I will never take my car anywhere else but here for tires. Memo is polite, professional and most of all I feel he is honest. His prices are mor than fare. I recommend Memo to tire care. read more

Hit a curb a mile away. My usual tire shop was 40 minutes + away and would not have made it safely. Looked up this place and drove right up. Guillermo had good energy and was speedy with my replacement. He was even able to find me a used Michelin tire that was almost new. Great business. I appreciate y'all. read more

Memo's Tires - Guillermo handling business swiftly and steadily! - Tires Near Me - Monterey Park, California

Being someone's who's not even from the area and coming into memos I felt no welcoming and helpful presence the moment I walked in. I came in for a routine lug nut change which btw was supposed to cost me $60 per 20 lug nuts making 1 for $3 btw next shop over charged me $35 and no extra fee to install. Memos tire told me that if I wanted to install it even though I called prior for a quote it would be $60 + labor to put on some lugs. Overall worst service had him ask me how much I make and how nothing is free. Don't come here if you're trying to properly utilize money cause these guys just want to make money off you. read more

My Alignment was really bad and they help me out getting done the right away they stood with me until it was perfectly done I would recommend here ! read more

Memo has been taking care of my tires for over 30 years, starting at his previous location on Floral Drive. His current location on Pomona is much larger, but lacks the three hydraulic lifts he had at the older smaller place. He used four manual jacks to lift my Chrysler Sebring Convertible to replace all four tires (see picture). He was working alone yesterday for the first time I have ever seen, it took him an hour to replace and balance my tires, about 15 minutes each, not a bad time. Much faster if he had a hydraulic lift. He doesn't have the equipment for an alignment, either. At least not that I saw. He advertises as tire repair and mechanic, but I wouldn't come here for a mechanic unless it was an emergency as 99 percent of his time is spent on tires. Memo has hundreds of new and used tires in stock. I know most people won't consider used tires, but they have their purpose. I brought a friend to Memo and bought him four used tires to get him home to Lubbock, Texas. Of course if you can afford new, get new. But used will last you a year, or two, or until you can replace them with new. There's no lobby, or waiting room, but you can have a cup of coffee at the corner at the 7-11. Lorena, I don't think Memo tried to scam you because you are a woman. It's his job to show you your options, patch, new tire, whatever it might be. And for you to decide which works best for you. He would do the same for me, a man. read more

Very rude . Overpriced unprofessional . I live down the street x never coming here again . Take your business elsewhere

Stopped by to get a tire repaired. Guy working was helpful and price was very reasonable. I'd definitely recommend this spot.

Memo is very pleasant and gets the work done efficiently. His prices are very reasonable.

He fixed my immediate problem of replacing the spare tire, and giving me a used tire for a cheap price. He filled all my tires with air, and took the time to explain a few things for me. He said my flat tire couldn't be patched, and I'm not sure that I believe that 100%. In any case, my tires are old anyways, so no big deal, since I need to replace all of them in due time. He didn't try to oversell me, and as mentioned, and the used tire is running okay for now. Probably a 3.5 star. read more

Awesome service at memos!!! Found a nail in one of my tires and decided to visit memos a couple hours before closing. Upon arrival at the shop, my tire was checked for it's condition and the entire service was fast and easy. My air pressures on all tires were checked and I was done in record time. Great prices! Excellent service! Very professional! Would def recommend all by friends, family, and community to Memos for any of your tire needs!!!! A+ all the way!! read more

I started my day getting a blowout and was calling around about tires. It wasn't until I googled and got memos name and number- that I called and they were very nice; and reasonable!! For a 2003 truck I got a used tire that looked brand new for 60! Highly recommended! I will be going back- for the other tires! read more

I had a great experience at Memo's tires. He found me a reasonably priced tire for my vehicle. I went somewhere else before I came here and they were attempting to charge me double what Memo charged me. read more

I live near the area and it was more for convenience. I don't think I would come back here for mechanic work due to cost...unless I desperately need to. 2010 Honda Civic I got an oil change, a new thermostat, new oil filter. The original estimate was around total of $60 in parts and the rest in labor. Estimated cost of labor $167 My estimated total if we couldn't get the parts lower was going to be $227. The good news was that they were able to get the parts for less, saved me $20 but the bottom line for cost was still $227. Total time for repair was estimated less than 2.5 hrs. So I still paid the original estimate... Bottom line is I know I could've saved myself, estimating, 40-60 going to my regular mechanic but it was bad timing and I had put this off for as long as I could. I had to get this done today. So I appreciate for taking care of my car. This place will be my emergency, last resort. They have good tire prices and are have nice customer service and that's why I give them a 4. read more

He wasn't busy when I went there so I was lucky in that way. But he fixed my flat tire while I waited and found two different nails although only one was causing the flat. He said the price would vary beforehand depending on the severity but in my case only $15. I gave him an extra $5. I've been here before and I always appreciate his honesty and professionalism read more

Trying to overcharge me because I'm a woman; They told me I needed a new tire when I only needed a patch, liars. No bueno. Be careful with this place. read more

I was really annoyed by this place because I called beforehand to check and see if they had any used tires in the size I needed. I was told that they did and given a price. However, once I got there, he pulled the tire out and said it wasn't that great so I was better off getting a new one. Well that would've been helpful had he told me when I called. So I opted for the new tire and he quoted me $60. I paid $40 of it in cash (the price for the used tire) and paid the last $20 on my credit card. However, he charged me for a total of $65. Now $5 isn't that big of a deal but geesh. How rude is that? Stick to the price you give to people. read more

Careful with this place, I was overcharged for a full synthetic oil change with a tire rotation and the directional tires were put on incorrectly. I also noticed that my car was used to run an errand as a receipt for a windshield was left in my car and a decrease in my gas. Owner claims that it wasn't them as they don't drive customer cars unless it's for a test drive. Seems that they abused the test drive going all the way out to city of industry. Attached is photo proof that they took my car without my consent. Memo swore to me that they wouldn't do such a thing and that he was not to be wrongly accused. read more

Memo's is the tire shop I recommend to everyone I know, and is now located 269 E. Pomona Blvd, Montery Park (East of Wilcox, past 7-Eleven) Why would anyone go to a nationally advertised tire chain when Guillermo (Memo) can get just about any brand of tire you want for a better price? He also sells quality used tires. Get there early because it's 1st come first served! read more

Memo is the man. He gave me a refresher on tire balancing and he did it for free. Bought some used tires for my low mileage vehicle and they were practically new. He's a really nice guy and he will give you the best price. I hated the old shop and actually used to come to the new shop for R12 back in the day when it still existed haha. Anyways, memo=the man. read more

I came in to Memos due to a flat tire. I came in and Memo was very helpful and attentive as soon as I arrived. He had a few people ahead of me. And took a bit to work on my tire. Looks like a one man crew. But was very helpful when my turn came up. Great service! read more

As stated above, the new address is 269 E Pomona Blvd Memo is a great, honest guy. I needed all 4 tires on my 2011 Sentra changed and he gave me a great price. Not only that, but he took the time to show me how the patter of wear on my old tires shows what the problem was (in my case, they were under inflated). Like I said, honest and transparent, doesn't try to sell you unnecessary stuff like Pep Boys, and is definitely better priced. Will definitely go back and recommend this guy to anybody that needs tires. read more
