The two stars is due to them being able to change two tires on the spot and filling the other two with air. My father had come in a couple days before me and got tired for $30 a tire. I showed up to get mine replaced for the same price EXCEPT the woman at the register was very rude about inflating the price to charge me $50 a tire. I was only able to change two of them, she them told me it would be $120. I asked for a price breakdown since they told me that tires were $50 each. She went into a long rant about how gas prices are higher and therefore they have to charge me more. When it came time to pay, the total was $110, NOT $120. She took my $100 dollar bill in cash and rang my card up for $10 and ONLY gave me a receipt for the amount that was charged on my car ($10). SHADY place with confusing prices and horrible communication. Unless you have an emergency, I wouldn't recommend coming here. Did I mention I was only able to get USED tires? Anyway, save your stress and energy, go to a place with more transparency and clear communication. It goes a long way. read more

I rarely leave negative reviews, but my experience at Mexicali Tires in Simi Valley was absolutely terrible from start to finish. First off, the technician had zero customer service skills. He looked completely fed up with his job and made it clear he didn't want to be there. I then asked another man--who I'm assuming was the owner--for a quote on a set of new tires. He couldn't even look me in the eye when he gave me the price. While completely looking away from me, he threw out a confident quote of $2,000 for the exact same tires that multiple other separate shops have quoted me $1,000 for. A 100% markup is just pure greed, and he couldn't even confidently back up his own numbers to my face. To top it all off, the checkout process was a joke. I walked up to the counter and greeted the older woman with a smile, only to get a miserable, stern look back. When I tried to tell her I needed to pay for a tire patch, she couldn't even hear me because she was blasting YouTube videos of nasal canals at full volume on her computer. After I had to repeat myself several times to get her attention, she told me a simple plug patch was $35. Charging $35 for an external plug--when reputable shops actually remove the tire and patch it properly from the inside for less--is absurd. When I questioned the $35 price, she gave me a defensive, condescending attitude and said, "Yes, a lot of people go to different places and act surprised when they see the price." Well, people are surprised because your prices are a rip-off and your attitude is garbage. Take your business somewhere else where they actually value customers and don't overcharge for subpar work read more

Horrible service, horrible human womringThe old man working there needs to learn how to conduct business. If I could leave no stars I would. First I get there on a run flat tire that was still holding air with hopes of getting a new or used tire so I can get back on with my day. This guy never says a word to me once he begins, I asked him "you have it" he says "yes I have" as he's already mounting the tire I have to ask for a price. Move forward, he mounts a tire that's a 215 when I came for a 225 after he said he had the 225. Tries to send me on my way and says "it's ok, you drive it, it's not different" I made him take the tire off and had to leave on a now completely flat blown tire, hanging off the rim and damaged my rim. This guy is unbelievable. I asked if he could try to put air in the run flat to see if it'd hold at all so I can make it to the next tire shop and he refused to and shooed me away. Remember you reap what you sow folks. read more

Mexicali Tires - Tires Near Me - Simi Valley, California

DO NOT GO TO MEXICALI TIRES!!!! Good service by employee- NOT owners! Bad quality product! Bad value!!! I got a flat and drove to Mexicali tires but the tire completely came off and was on the rim. I called triple a for a tow and asked to take me to Mexicali tires. Prior to heading there I called and asked if they had my size in tires and asked for the price, $80 for used 255/R17's . Once I am dropped off there, I am told it'll be $100 by employee. I tell him I'd pay cash, so if he could compromise and do no tax and $80?. Employee agrees. Once is time to pay, the lady, whom I assume is the owner, asks me to pay with card. I tell her I don't carry a card and it'll be 343. She goes on to show me a notebook with entries- to point out she keeps record for tax purposes. The owner says she pays taxes and labor can be discounted not inventory. All in Spanish. I tell her I understand her, I am a corporate accountant. Thus entries for tax purposes shouldn't be done in the manner she's doing them and I'd gladly accept her business if she'd like. She said to ask my mom, or someone, I tell her that her employee agreed upon a price for service and inventory. She accepts the $320, oh yes! I bought four tires!!! SHE REFUSED TO GIVE ME A RECEIPT OVER $13 (which by the way tax on $320 is 12.40 ). Aaaaaaaand why this review?!? The recently bought tires from Mexicali Tires one just completely started deflating because the side wall has a rip! Jesus Joseph and Mary!! I called and no answer! Boycott this business and do not go there even for free air as per California law. ¡¡¡NO VAYAS A MEXICALI TIRES!!! Buen servicio de su empleado, NO DE LOS DUEÑOS!! Mala calidad de producto!!! Mal valor por su dinero!!! Se me pinchó y conduje hasta los neumáticos Mexicali, pero el neumático se desató por completo y estaba en la llanta. Llamé a triple a para una grúa y pedí que me llevaran a los neumáticos Mexicali. Antes de ir allí, llamé y pregunté si tenían mi talla de neumáticos y pregunté por el precio, 80 $ por 255/R17 usados. Una vez que me dejen allí, me dicen que serán 100 $ por empleado. Le digo que pagaría en efectivo, así que si pudiera comprometerse y no hacer impuestos y 80 dólares. El empleado está de acuerdo. Una vez que es hora de pagar, la señora, que supongo que es la propietaria, me pide que pague con tarjeta. Le digo que no llevo una tarjeta y que será 343. Ella continúa mostrándome un cuaderno con entradas, para señalar que lleva un registro a efectos fiscales. La propietaria dice que paga impuestos y la mano de obra se puede descontar, no el inventario. Todo en español. Le digo que la entiendo, soy contable corporativo. Por lo tanto, las entradas a efectos fiscales no deben hacerse de la manera en que ella las está haciendo y con gusto aceptaría su negocio si lo desea. Ella dijo que le preguntara a mi madre, o a alguien, le dije que su empleado acordó un precio por el servicio y el inventario. Ella acepta los 320 dólares, ¡oh, sí! ¡¡¡Compré cuatro neumáticos!!! ELLA SE NEGÓ A DARME UN RECIBO DE MÁS DE 13 $ (que, por cierto, el impuesto de 320 $ es de 12,40 $). Aaaaaaaa y ¿por qué esta reseña? ¡Los neumáticos comprados recientemente en Mexicali Tires acaban de empezar a desinflarse por completo porque la pared lateral tiene un desgarro! ¡¡Jesús, José y María!! ¡Llamé y no hubo respuesta! Boicotea este negocio y no vayas allí ni siquiera por aire libre según la ley de California. read more

I didn't mind the higher prices because he's open on Sundays and that has worked out great for me. A few times I have needed used tires. But yesterday I went there to have two tires mounted that I purchased online the technician completely scratched up the clearcoat on my F350 wheels. I'm trying to price out getting them repaired and that right there could cost me $200-$400. I mean the wheels were not perfect but now they have to be redone. read more

Purchased a new tire and it was busted up Kept saying needed air. Would not honor warranty. Even had the audacity to charge me for looking at tire. I would still have to put air in all the time. read more

Scam first price $30 then he changed to 50$ and he couldn't put my spare tire back so disappointed I RECOMMEND JIMS TIRES ( I went and it's free fix for flat tires and they helped me with putting my spare back with no charge)! I got used tires and I bought them cash 400$ and he still managed to charge me tax but this time he didn't tax me when I paid cash.. read more

Terrible service lied over the phone told me $30 for each used tire. When I arrived 15 mins later they told me $150 each used tire they lie just to get you over here would never recommend this place read more

Terrible customer service. Seemed very expensive for the quality of the tires. They don't understand what you're saying.

This place has the worst attitude for customer service and tire installing skills are lacking. I believe they honestly do not want you to come back which makes me believe it's a FRONT. read more

DO NOT TAKE YOUR BUSINESS HERE!! Tire (used) blown out after less than 30 miles of use and less than 48 hours of purchase. Understanding that the purchase was of a used tire that had no warranty but this should be against the law! When you conduct business which entails customers trusting you with their safety in an automobile, customer service should be top notch and quality should be better than this!! A $57 purchase here at Mexicali Tires in Simi Valley ended up costing over $300 after needing to be towed from a freeway blow out! And all they offered was a "verbal credit" for a future buy, as if I would EVER entrust this place with my need for a tire ever again!! The installer man was trying to negotiate a fix but the office lady (wife) came out yelled at him and annoyingly offered a "verbal credit". ¡¡NO LLEVE SU NEGOCIO AQUÍ !! Llanta (usada) reventada después de menos de 30 millas de uso y menos de 48 horas de compra. Entendiendo que la compra fue de un neumático usado que no tenía garantía, ¡pero esto debería ser ilegal! Cuando realiza negocios que implican que los clientes confíen en usted con su seguridad en un automóvil, el servicio al cliente debe ser de primera clase y la calidad debe ser mejor que esto. Una compra de $ 57 aquí en Mexicali Tires en Simi Valley terminó costando más de $ 300 después de necesitar ser remolcada desde una autopista. ¡Y todo lo que ofrecieron fue un "crédito verbal" para una compra futura, como si alguna vez volviera a confiarle a este lugar mi necesidad de una llanta! El instalador estaba tratando de negociar una solución, pero la señora de la oficina (esposa) le gritó y le ofreció un "crédito verbal". read more

This place is a scam. I came here to get my tire patched because I had done that for years and paid $10. Knowing that I can get it done for free anywhere else I walk in the lady says no we're closed. Sorry I say OK and walk out she sends one of her employees to come out and say hey, we'll do it for you and then I go to pay and she tells me it's $35 and I say why is it $35 I've always paid 10 she says it's because we're closed and we're doing the work while we're closed Why wouldn't you just tell me you're closed and tell me the fee you're going to up charge me this lady is the most dishonest woman most disrespectful woman I have ever worked with in my life. Stay as far away from this business as you possibly can. read more

Horrible Customer Service. Do not go there if you a person of color. I pulled up and needed 2 tires (255-40-19). The old man said $95 for a used tire. I said, "$95!" He said, "Well, that's my price for you." (very sarcastic and nasty) I told him that I purchased a tire in Sheman Oaks for $65 for the same size. The worker and the shop owner were speaking in Spanish, but they don't know that I understand everything they said. DO NOT SHOP FOR TIRES HERE!!!!!! read more

WARNING STAY AWAY! Absolutely disgusting people here. Worst service I've ever experienced in my life at any establishment. Came here to put tires on my car and guy said he'd get me a price and come back. Heard him speak to the manager in the back and say "it's a Mercedes let's do $65" When they came out I said what "the hell are you talking about? $65 to put two tires on?" And the guy said ok he'll do $30. As I got in my car I looked at the receipt and it said $65. Went back and the guy said "sorry that's the price!" Unbelievable. read more

If I could give a zero star I would. I came here for used tires because I'm a broke college student and it was all I could afford. I used these tires for about a month and I had to fill them with air once every week. I finally got enough money to go to big brand tires to have them inspected because I knew it wasn't right. They told me that the tires on the rear were 12 years old and the tires on the front were a completely different size. I went down to ask for a refund or at least to get the right sized tires put on, but all they did was yell in my face and tell me "no guarantee". I am very upset because I just wasted $300 and I still have to get new tires again that I now can't afford at all. Do better. read more

I came here on Saturday bacause my tire had a screw in it so I got it replaced the guy told me one of the back tires was cracking and it was dangerous so I bought 2 used tires only to find out today that one of the tires he had " sold me" was very low... so I went to a different tire shop turns out the " replace tire with the screw" was still one not only did he charge me for a tire but never replaced it just swapped it don't come here rip off. read more

I came here with a very small leak in my tire on a Sunday, because my usual place was closed. They charged me $38 for the patch. Two days later it was flat again and when I took it to my usual place, they said they had patched the tire so badly that it caused irreparable damage and I needed a new tire. When I went back and asked for a refund, they said "Patches aren't guaranteed. No refunds." Next time, I'll drive on my spare until America's Tire reopens on Monday. read more

Worst tire store ever honestly, super rude to say the least . Tried to charge me 180 for a used tire ( standard size normal truck tire, nothing special) that was date stamped from 2007! Didn't even balance It, told me it didn't need to be because it was on the rear of the vehicle? Told me to F off after I wouldn't pay that much . read more

After experiencing a flat tire accompanied by a defunct spare, Mexicali Tires came as a recommendation from Pep Boys (660 E Los Angeles Ave, Simi Valley, CA 93065) The owner highly recommended Mexi Cali Tires and told me that they were extremely affordable and professional and that it would be worth my while to get my car towed there. I called the shop before committing and was met with great customer service. I own a classic car and tire shops do not always carry the size that I need but Mexi Cali had 1 of them and were willing to hold it for me until my tow truck arrived. The service was extremely quick. There was no wait and all of the staff were very professional and kind. Best of all .... ONLY $45 for a used tire including installation read more

Terrible service from the office lady. Would absolutely rate zero stars if I could. Had a flat within an hour after leaving from a tire repair with them. read more

We contacted this shop at 4pm on a Monday for a tire we were looking for. They said they had it and told me it would be $50 and I told them I would be there in 15 minutes. The man on the phone replied with "oh today? We're closing" I asked him what time he closed and the man just replied with "soon." He was not very friendly but I needed the tire so I told him if I can go before they close and he agreed. I get there and check the tire out, I find out it's used. At this point I really need the tire so I agree and when it's time to pay he said the total was $60... I then told him that on the phone he said $50 and he shook his head and said no, it's $60. First and last time I come here. Very rude and will say one thing on the phone but another in person. read more

If a business could get zero stars this would be it. Run,Run,Run never get or buy tires from this place I'm surprised there still open and have any business. The tire guy that greets you will tell you one price and when you go to pay Hispanic lady in side you up price you. I went in for a tire patch and guy said it was $20. Ok worth it because I did not want to wait at big tire shop to do it for free. Went into pay and lady says $30 and if I don't pay she will call the police. I laughed because they did to me two years ago. I threw a $20 down like last time and swore I would never go there again. Don't ever go there if you get get a written quote from the witch inside first. read more

Found a screw in my tire at Arco across the street and another customer suggested going here. Pulled up and had it patched in 10 minutes. $30. What's not to like. I sure didn't have the same experience as a lot of people that reviewed. read more

Lady is pretty rude on the phone I have bought tires here before the guys chill. Hate it when people are rude

This place is great! I got two tires replaced in about an hour for like $130! Excellent service.

I figured I was very lucky to find a almost new tire at Mexicali tire that matched the other 3 tires. I also have custom black power coated wheels which cost $350 each and the guy managed to gouge and scratch up on 5 to 6 places, which I didn't really notice till later. Then the guy was going to put the wheel on without balancing. Can you imagine how much a 22 inch tire could hop around on my Cadillac? Now he doesn't even clean the wheel where he's going to apply the weights. Then to top it off he told me he needed cash...gee, I wonder why? So I had to walk across the street to get money from the 7/11! As I'm walking back I notice 5 or 6 silver scratches on my black wheels. Now I'm really pissed but it didn't matter because the guy didn't speak a word of english. Now... this may be the place to go if you have a 10 yr old Honda or Toyota but take your tire somewhere else if you value you car. read more

Unethical and shady service. There's a reason why this place has poor reviews. Stay away! I went there looking for some used tires for my sister and they sold us 15 year old tires!!! Even though the thread was decent they failed to tell us that very important detail. These people don't care about your safety. Stay away! Later I found out that my friend swore to never go back there again after one of his tires came off as he was driving off their parking lot. read more

Super rude and shady! Will quote you one price but jack it up after they install them!!!! Beware of these SCAMMERS!!!

Told me $90 for two used tires. I asked how much for 4 and the guy told me $300 THAT DOESN'T EVEN MAKE SENSE!!! Dude was super rude, place was super sketchy Had to replace the tires they gave me less than 2 months after I got them. PLEASE GO ANYWHERE ELSE IF YOU WANT TO LIVE. read more

I use to come here every time I needed used tires but last few times they told me one price over the phone and try and charge me a different price after they put it on. Go somewhere you know isn't going to try and charge you extra. There's to many places around simi where you don't have e to haggle down to the original price they quote. read more

I ended up needing to replace the tire they sold me within a week. Poor quality service, wouldn't recommend.

My tire was flat I was desperate to change it so I came here just a week ago I payed $117 total for a used tire cause It's what I can afford and just a week later it's completely flat I have no knowledge in this stuff and I'm sure they knew as I see in these reviews they charged everyone between 40-50 range but for me I payed 100+ i beg you not to come to these scam artists read more

This place is amazing, the prices are unbeatable and they had my new tires put on in under 30 min which no tire store has ever come even close to. 100% recommend Mexicali tires, you won't be able to come anywhere close to beating the price or timeliness of this tire business!!!! read more

HOLA VATO...HEY HOMES HOW YOU DOIN'? ...HAHAHA OKAY MAN JUST CHILLING YOU KNOW.... I've been here twice and for some strange reason the mexican guys talk like they're old pals and then they turn to me and treat me like a nuisance. I feel like the I'm on one of those Mexican Jerry Springer Shows and I'm the host and everyone ignores me when I ask them whose baby is it...lol You down for some sketchness? Cause this place is it.....If your white and aren't a man who knows his shit about cars then I don't advise you to come here alone, cause they will probably take advantage of you... If you want some cheap tires then definitely come here and buy some time til you can afford new ones. The reason I come here? Because trying to reduce my carbon footprint is hard and I read on a website that by buying used tired and not buying new ones is a green way to help the environment while still being nice on your wallet. Not the nicest place...but hey shut up and get ur shit done and get out... hit it and quit it...lol read more

Hello, My name is Victor and I just moved here to Simi Valley from Santa Monica!"I was looking for a tire place near me because my tire were sort of flat." And Mexicali tires was one of the shop that was near me so I went there to get service and as soon as I parked the guy who works there had attitude and I was about to drive away but I really needed my tire fix so I ask the guy politely if he can change my tire with a used one.He went on and charged me $40 for 1 tire! I thought that was ridiculous! I got it anyways then I drove off! AND ABOUT 4 DAYS LATER THE SAME TIRE STRIPPED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE FWY AND I HAD TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE...TO CALL 511! I DEFINITELY DONT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE AT ALL! MY LIFE WAS AT RISK! AND ITS PRICEY.. AND THEY DONT GIVE REFUNDS! read more

Mexicali Tires - I BOUGHT THIS USED TIRE FOR $40 AND FOUR DAYS LATER, THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED! IM NEVER GOING HERE AGAIN!! - Tires Near Me - Simi Valley, California

If I could give them a zero for thieves, I would. Looking at the 5 star ratings here is a joke, one of them look like the actual guy that changes ur damn tires. Anyways, I went in because I had a nail in my honda civic's tire...I had brought my truck with the same issue and it cost me $15, so I figured it would be cheaper or a least the same price. So when I handed him a $20 and he said thanks, I was taken back. Hey $5 is $5 of gas for me. His excuse when i said why so expensive was, "because i patch inside and out"...are u kidding me....I needed to go to work (went during my lunch), therefore, I left but couldnt shake the feel that I was just robbed. I asked my boy friend to call and see how much it would cost and the same damn guy told him $15! WTF! This place takes advantage of females because they figure "we don't know what's up." Based on other reviews...all females are getting robbed, if I were you I would go down the street to another tire place and skip the drama and keep more cash in your pocket. I seriously wish something further could be done!!! All he said when I jumped on phone aas, "come pick up your $5"...really bro!! what a criminal! read more

Hello I call Mexicali tires and spoke with the guy and I explained him what my car need done and he told me a price so I went and I was waiting for 1 hour after a ladie show up and she told me that I need to pay the double amount for the service and I said no he told me a different price so she told ok with a rude attitude and she said take your trash back with you with a fucking bad attitude I won't recommend that place thank you read more

If I could give this zero stars I would. The lady that answered the phone was rude and demanding we buy used tires for $60. She said we wouldn't find better used tires. She had no knowledge of tires. She went a size smaller saying it would fit my car but it doesn't. She tries to make you feel dumb when the dumb one is her. Do not recommend this place at all. Get your tires somewhere else, where they're not rude or ignorant. read more
