    Still the best new tire, used tire, alignment, tire repair and tire patch place around in the San gabriel valley. Great for all your tire needs. Super fast, friendly and honest. I have been coming here for over a decade for all my cars tire needs and they always deliver. The owner is very nice and honest. They have a large selection of new and used tires plus alignment services. Way better prices than chain tire stores and dealers. Highly recommended! Plus short walking distance to old town Monrovia so plenty of places to eat or chill while they change or fix your wheels or tires.

    AVOID THIS SCAM PLACE. I only leave 2 types of reviews, for really bad or really great service. THIS PLACE IS REALLY BAD!!! So this shop really scammed me in multiple ways. Mind you, I work in this industry, so most people would not realize they were being lied to, so here you go, read my story and make your own judgments. Note it is long. Here is the summary: Lied about the New tire he sold me. The so-called NEW TIRE he sold me was MADE IN 2013.... OVER 10 years old!!!! (What does rubber do over time??) Caused damage to my wheel (would not admit to it), and would not give me a receipt AFTER I PAID HIM $150 (Mind you I asked nicely before I complained, which I thought was weird, if I did a job for you, you paid me, and asked for a receipt, I would give it to you, UNLESS I WAS TRYING TO HIDE SOMETHING). If you ask me, if this owner is willing to do this much on a simple tire replacement. what is he willing to do on larger jobs to get your money??? #1. I called the place and asked for the cheapest USED tire they had available in the size I needed to replace 1 tire that got nail/road damage. After about 10 min. On hold, the lady said NO USED TIRE. However, they had a NEW one they would give me a deal on, $150 INSTALLED/BALANCED. So I said OKAY and went to the shop. #2 Now mind you this was NOT the best deal, I researched the tires and these BRAND NEW GO FOR ABOUT $130, then add install/balance so I was saving like $10 in the end. Lie number #1 #3 Drop off the wheel, they said to come back with CASH. Now I usually appreciate this, but this is where the issue began. #4. I went and picked up my wheel and noticed some marks on it, at first I figured it was the tire lube you have to use. Kinda sloppy, but not uncommon. THEN I ASKED FOR A RECEIPT, THE OWNER SAID, "YOU DON'T NEED ONE" then wrote something on his card and then said that this was my receipt. #5 I went home and washed my wheels and realized they put a 12 inch deep scratch in one. I LOAD IT BACK UP AND DRIVE TO THE SHOP ASAP! I got there and let the owner know that they damaged my wheel and HE WOULD NOT TAKE ACCOUNTABILITY! !!! (Lie #2) #6 Now I'm kinda mad. The owner also said it was okay because the wheel was already marked up. While it does have some minor damage from over the years, because of THAT HE FELT IT WAS OKAY TO ADD MORE DAMAGE??? WWWOOOOWWWW!!! #7 (Lie #3) He then showed me a tire machine they had which had a bunch of tires on it and said this machine can't cause damage, IF they were using that machine, why did it have tires as a means of storage space?? (Obviously this is my professional judgment). NOTE THE PICTURES, YOU CAN TELL WHEN NEW RECENT DAMAGE OCCURS AND YOU BE THE JUDGE, THE DAMAGE WAS NEW. Again, the owner said they did not do the damage but again, I work in this field, he would have done this to anyone, He intimidates to avoid accountability. #8 So I then said, FORGET THE DAMAGE, WE ARE GOOD, JUST GIVE ME A RECEIPT (my work said they would cover this cost, just bring a receipt, so this was especially important to me) THE OWNER SAID NO! All the owner had to do was acknowledge on paper that I paid for a service, forget about the damage, and we are good and the owner said NO!!!(That's a best case scenario for him) #9 Owner offered to give me my money back and take his tire back. SO he wanted his tire back, re-damage my wheel, and then I just got free wheel damage, how fun. I was NOT RISKING THEM DOING ANY MORE DAMAGE!!! So in the end, I paid $150, got wheel damage, NO RECEIPT, got sold an 11 year old tire as a NEW TIRE. THAT'S A USED TIRE IN MY BOOK!! And never even got an apology. AGAIN I WOULD AVOID THIS PLACE! TAKE YOUR CAR TO A BIG BOX STORES WHERE THEY WILL COVER WHATEVER THEY DAMAGE. Not this scum bag. Think about what he had to do to make it right, just right on a piece of paper that I paid him $150 for a tire, which is what happened. Obviously he knew he messed up badly and was not willing to have it in writing but then never admitted to it. So I came here and other means to give people that dont know some insight to places like this.

    Tire puncture

    We hit a road debris on the freeway and the tire immediately deflated. The car was towed to the Monrovia Tires Company. The guys there are fast, professional and patched the tire in no time flat. While I was waiting for the tow truck with the car, the guys helped out several customers. So by 9:30am, they've already helped out a half dozen folks with tire issues. They provide a great service to the community and deserve our business.

    Monrovia Tire Company is a reliable tire shop in good ol' Old Town Monrovia. They've spared me a few times when I was in need for a tire, but couldn't quite afford a new one just yet. They went out of their way to not only look for the size of the tire, but match the brand of the tire as much as possible. Luckily, we found a perfect match, which was great cause it didn't feel weird to drive off with a cheap brand. They've also patched up my tires and done rotations. Prices are reasonable and they get the job done. Call in advance before you stop by because they might be busy.

    Great service! Staff is friendly! I was in need of tie pressure monitors because mine apparently died. They were able to take care of me right away.

    My rear tire on the driver's side was slowly leaking. I attempted, but failed, to cure it with worm. On Monday, I came to this shop to get that fixed. I get out of the car and wait for my turn for nearly forty minutes. I received a call an hour later to say the leak had been rectified. I was told that the repair will cost $20 by the cashier woman. I paid for it and walked out. Two days later, I discovered that the slow leak was still there and was becoming worse. I thus went there today to ask for the correction. 1. The owner refuted claims of inadequate work performance. What I discovered is that the owner, who is disabled, consistently asserts that worms were not used in the repair of the vehicle. I informed them that was my job and came your shop fix it correctly 3 days ago. I even informed him that the young Spanish man had worked on it when I had been here three days ago. And I had paid the cashier $20. The owner saying that I'm lying because that repairs cost is $25. He ask me to pay another $25 to fix it. 2. I talked to he cashier woman. However she suggested that it could be another tire. She talks me like that I changed the tire to fix the tire leak. However, at least she didn't dispute that I wasn't there to fix the tire. 3. The Spanish mechanic who serviced my tire 3 days ago was aware of this, and he and the manager spoke with one another to verify that he performed the task in Spanish. It looked like that they confirmed. However, when I tried to talk to him, they wouldn't allow me communicate with him. They told me that he doesn't speak English. Then the Spanish person told me, "No English,". That means that he understand what we are talking about. Witty and evil. I had to leave the place since everyone there was really dishonest and intimidated me with their ranting. They refused to fix the tire.

Mounting aggressive tires on fresh wheels always makes you a little nervous -- especially with a setup like this -- but they handled everything with care and precision. No scratches, clean weights, and the balance is smooth at highway speeds. The alignment is spot on. Truck tracks straight, steering wheel is perfectly centered, and it drives tight without any wander. With Kings on the truck, alignment matters, and they clearly know what they're doing. Professional, detail-oriented, and no shortcuts. If you're running a dialed Tacoma setup and want it done right the first time, this is the place. Will definitely be back.

My only concern was the wheel balancing for all 4 wheels and the 4 wheel alignment. The free wheel balancing was okay, but the ride was a but bit rough, especially at high speeds. The 4 wheel alignment was also okay because I saw the tech person pull it out of the stall and parked the car. He did not do a test drive. My Bimmer drove okay, but it didn't track. So I wasn't confident that the wheel alignment was properly done. I recently remedied the concerns by having the 4 wheels rebalanced and had a 4 wheel precision alignment done at another shop. Now my Bimmer tracks and rides really smooth... For tires purchase, this place is great.. But for tire services, from my experience, I would recommend to go somewhere else...

So now 15 minutes in and still haven't written it up or asked for my keys. I'm here for a rotation and balance so I don't expect it to take long. I'm on lunch and can't really be here for over an hour. He told me they should be able to get me out by 115. If they can do that , I will be happy. Right now though, I'm not all that happy since it feels like they burned 15 minutes of my time. By 1245 they have called me and measured my tread depth. This is little peeve of mine and it reminds me of a bigger one. No longer am I given the piece of paper that tells me what my tread depth was. What is the point then? If my tires are wearing unevenly, it would be nice to know about it and even better to know which tire. One of them was less than the others. Wearing faster. No idea which one and the receipt is worthless as it doesn't have that info. My bigger peeve is that when I had the tires installed I asked if they could tell me how much brake pad was left. Actually my girl was with the car and I asked her to ask them. She said they told her they can't do that. When I got there she and another customer told me it was due to liability. Now I didn't ask for them to make a judgement call on whether or not the brakes were good or bad or could go X miles. I just literally wanted a estimate measurement. The other customer coukdnt understand why I didn't want to accept the liability excuse and made sweeping statements about the trouble they could in. Let me make this part crystal clear for the sites and for the corporate lawyers. Ask yourself how much money you'll be liable for the day you refuse to tell a customer his brake pads were looking pretty slim, or let's say a couple mm left, and that person ends up dead or killing someone else 3 days later due to not stopping in time or some type of brake failure? They will sue and they will win stating that any reasonable technician would have recognized how dangerously worn the brake pads were and you refused to inform the customer, whether or not it's your business. So if that's policy to not say anything, I'd really rethink that. Seems like the liability is with not telling them. You tell them, you've done what would be reasonable. You refuse and you are opening yourself up to be cast as the next bad guy in court. So easily.They will crucify you. Think about it, corporate lawyer people. That's all I'm going to say on that. My car was done by 115. Guys at this store working in the bays showed a lot of hustle and cooperation. An exemplary crew of technicians. The service writer guys were good once they got to me but they would do well to achnowledge people when they walk in to let them know they are seen and will be helped soon. Can't ask for much better on a free service. Still would be nice to know those tread depths since you took the time to measure and all....

It's been quite awhile since I've been here since I've been driving less and I also purchased a new vehicle, so I haven't had to get any new tires. The management seems to have changed since I didn't see the familiar faces. I have since come here twice in the past two months, unfortunately because I like driving on nails. Parking is a challenge because they're so busy, but I can find parking down the street - it's just a bit of a walk. On my first visit, my tire could not be patched but helped me make an order for the tire with a deposit. I ended up getting it replaced at the dealership because I wanted it done sooner if I could. I informed America's Tire and they refunded me my deposit. On my second visit, my tire could be patched (thankfully!). I was helped quickly and I was in and in 30 minutes. This is the type of service that I have always appreciated. In both cases, I had made an appointment. Shout out to Norman. It was nice seeing you, but I hope I don't have to see you again for another 13,000 miles.

I was hoping I just needed brake pads for the front and hopefully not all 4 wheels at the time. They were very responsive and the quote was comparable to other places, if not better. Decided to take it in on a Friday in the morning. Checked my wheels and told me I just needed the front brake pads and rotors replaced. The back was still good. Sigh of relief somewhat. They were able to get the pads and rotors replaced for little under 3 hours. Time went by and they were updating me during the whole time. Great service and team here. Will definitely bring my car back in to get other services done. No issues whatsoever with the new pads and rotors.

    PROBLEM: ALIGNMENT ISSUES, CUSTOMER SERVICE, ACCOUNTABILITY…read more When I first tried to leave a review, my account was somehow blocked from posting specifically for RTM, while I could still review other businesses. I contacted Yelp, and by coincidence, the representative I spoke with was also RTM's Yelp rep. He said it was strange that I couldn't post only for RTM. After I explained my situation, he advised me not to leave a review and instead take the matter to small claims court--which I did. During the hearing, the judge seemed to understand my side, but the ruling ultimately favored RTM. Despite being advised not to post this, I'm sharing my experience here because the situation still doesn't sit right with me--especially given Yelp's controversial review practices. On 10/1/25, my rear right adjustable control arm snapped. My car has aftermarket wheels, tires, and suspension components, so a precise alignment is critical to ensure proper fitment without rubbing the fender. I initially went to TM Auto (located across from RTM) for the control arm replacement. After installation, TM took my car to RTM for alignment. I specifically asked them to match the rear right alignment to the rear left, which was set at -2.8 degrees. When I went to pick up my car, I immediately noticed the rear right wheel did not match the rear left. The camber was visibly off. I pointed this out to the technician, but he insisted the alignment was correct and that there were no machine or human errors. After repeated requests, they put the car back on the rack, but instead of rechecking, two additional technicians came out and dismissed my concerns with questionable explanations: "Toyota made the fenders uneven." "Your control arm is made in Taiwan/China--what do you expect?" Despite putting the car back on the rack, they never rechecked the alignment. They simply removed the car and stood by their original claim. With no resolution, I had no choice but to drive the car home. Because the alignment was incorrect, my tires rubbed against the fender the entire way. The next day, I found heat damage, paint cracking, and visible wear on the fender. I came back the next day to talk to Richard (the owner) hoping he would recheck everything, but it was apparent he was "too busy"--despite clearly having time to talk with other customers and then continue working on another car, while ignoring me. I waited outside RTM for over an hour trying to speak with him. When the TM Auto manager asked if he had seen the damage, his response was, "Yeah, so what?"--with no concern at all. After is when I left, and was forced to go to another shop to realign--more driving, more damage done. I used a camber gauge and measured -2.8 degrees on the rear left and -2.0 degrees on the rear right. To confirm, I took the car to my trusted shop, Chewerks in La Habra, where they verified the rear right camber was indeed -2.0 degrees and did not match the left side. Their measurements matched mine exactly. Because RTM refused to recheck or correct their work, this improper alignment caused damage to my car. The rear left side tucks properly, while the rear right sticks out about half an inch, which led directly to the rubbing and damage. I had clear documentation and evidence, but the court still ruled in RTM's favor. I chose not to appeal to avoid spending more time on the matter. A nearby body shop, Cenco Auto Body, quoted over $1,800 to repair the fender (with another shop giving a similar estimate), confirming the extent of the damage. What could have been a simple recheck turned into a costly mistake. Despite everything, RTM did not offer any compensation or attempt to make things right. Seeing RTM's highly rated Yelp profile made their response even more surprising. They're quick to take your money with a smile when things go well, but when issues arise--as in my case--they deny responsibility and make no effort to make things right (In my case, they didn't take money directly, but a receipt was given to TM Auto, and I had to pay TM Auto--which is the same as paying RTM directly). TM Auto went as far as offering RTM to help cover the repair costs, but RTM still refused. TM Auto didn't have to step in for someone else's mistake, yet they still tried--that says everything. Richard (the owner) had my contact information through the small claims process, yet he never made any effort to contact me--even before we went to assigned court date. After what happened, I'm relieved I didn't bring my other cars first--especially since those cars are of higher value. It seems RTM has many satisfied customers, along with a smaller number of unhappy ones. Hopefully, you don't end up in the latter group like me. FWIW: Following the incident, I contacted Hunter to verify when RTM's rack was last calibrated. Abel (rep) advised that its calibration was set to expire later that month. This raises the possibility that their rack may have been out of calibration.

When I checked the dipstick myself, the oil level appeared low and the oil was dark with a burnt smell. I returned the next day to speak with the manager (Luis), who insisted the oil had been changed and showed me what he said was a new oil filter installed by the technician (Torres). However, when I expressed concerns about the oil condition and asked if they could redo the service for customer peace of mind, I was told I would have to pay again. The original manager on duty during the service was Mike. What concerns me most is not just the oil itself, but the lack of transparency and unwillingness to address a customer's concern in a professional way. When basic steps like resetting the maintenance system are missed and the oil appears questionable, it's reasonable for a customer to ask for reassurance. Unfortunately, I did not leave feeling confident that the service was handled properly. Luis refused to redo the service free of charge and at this point I realized that it wasn't doing anything by going back and forth. I would recommend customers going somewhere else.
