Dante R.

Here's the thing. You see all the other reviews that are giving this place bad reviews and they're 100% correct. This place is very unwelcoming and have an owner that's proud of how obnoxious he is. It is just bad business. Why would you want to come support this place? Are the prices better than other places? No. Are they more efficient or do a better job? No. There's really no reason to come here unless you have some sick fantasy of getting talked down to by a guy that probably is compensating for a small.... Drive shaft if you catch my drift.

All my receipts that the Owner was surprised I had "No receipt no warranties or service"

F this place F this guy. If I could give 0 stars I would. I've been coming here for over 20 years because although the owner is a D**k, he knows his tires and can get tires not in stock at Discount Tires. One of the perks WAS the rotation service offered for free when you bought your set of tires here. This morning, I came in to get them rotated, handed my receipts from 4 tires, then 4 more, then 2 new ones, 2 more new ones, 1 new ones due to blowout. ALL tires on my truck bought here. So he says "you keep all to receipts huh?" (I think meaning that if you don't keep your receipts your SOL at his shop). I said yeah, I need one last rotation before I need new tires please, that's included that's why I brought my receipts, the mileage is there from when you rotated them last. He says we charge for that now. I said "that's not included anymore?" He says "we haven't done that in 2 years, we charge for that" I KNOW it hasn't been 2 years since my last rotation, so I said "ok"... so what do we do? He then looks at my 1 of my receipts and says "We ONLY do that when you buy ALL 4 tires here." (Since he was looking at the 1st receipt with 1 tire from a blowout) I said look at the rest of the receipts, you've put all the tires on here.... He then said "well, we charge for that now".... To ME it seemed as tho he was just making excuses to NOT do the rotation that was part of the package of getting tires here. Needless to say I said "ok, it seems like you just don't want to do it, please give me my receipts." I walked out of there NEVER to come back And straight to the Discount Tire Parking lot to order my new tires, they'll be here tomorrow and I'm good with that. F this guy F this place... jerkhole!!!!!

BEST TIRE & WHEEL SHOP IN SAN DIEGO! Best prices, great staff, friendly customer service. I've been coming to the Wheel Zone for about 20 years now. Daniel and his team are very knowledgeable and attentive. Great selection at amazing prices. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Slow leak from poor repair job . Never fixed my rim and wouldn't repair it after towing to the shop twice !
Troy J.

Told me he' would fix my rim , weld lasted 3 weeks then blew out again. sold me a 2013 damaged tire that blew out 3 weeks later as well Brought my car back he told me there was nothing wrong with the rim I must have damaged it. The tire was so old and dangerous it shouldn't have been an option but he installed it on my repaired rim anyhow!?! Took it too another shop they said I'm lucky I didn't have another blow out / accident with these repairs . Down $1000 Very saddening. My bmw factory rims are now GONE they don't make them anymore so I've had to buy a new set . -ANOTHER $1500 down. DONT COME HERE! No warranty no refunds no service VERY DANGEROUS, AND ISN'T RELIABLE. Sells damaged parts, and isn't certified for welding on rims, I will be taking legal actions if refunds are made. Save your time money and safety!

Wheel looks great.

Called at 9 am on a Saturday and drove to location and they got me in and out in a couple hours! They had lots of sweet BMW wheel options and I got my beautiful 19 inch staggered black rims! They even gave me money for my stock rims off the car! Great work guys! And Daniel is awesome to work with! Great customer service and good prices on wheels, tires and labor! Would definitely recommend!!

Needed to get my tire fixed. They gouged the whole rim up and try to deny it. They also broke the rim sensor ( i Took pictures of the the rim before hand) they were being rude the whole time and ignored me. They also don't know how to balance out a tire

His welds fail. And he won't stand by his repairs.

See all

Happy to update my review to 5 stars! Eusubio took care of the issues I was having with my car…read morerepairs and returned my car back to me in perfecf condition. The bumper and hood were realigned and it looks brand new. I am happily a satisfied customer and if I need to repair a car in the future I will return. Thanks again!!

Had a most unpleasant experience here, not with the work but with Hector specifically. He told me 4…read moredays and it took 24. Instead of following the estimate we agreed on he deleted it and substituted Geico's without asking me then told me I had to pay him my $1000 deductible! I told him that if I had wanted Geico's estimate I would have taken it to their body shop. Hector said he had to follow Geico's repair order. When I called my appraiser he said NO, IT IS ONLY A GUIDELINE. When I told Hector I wanted him to follow his estimate, he said I'd have to pay the 20% restocking fee for the Toyota parts I never authorized him to buy in the first place. He also told me that if I wanted to take my car to another body shop I'd have to pay $500 for them to put my car back together. Also told me I'd have to return the rental car immediately! After talking to the manager he was happy to tell me they got it down to $595 instead of $1000. The original difference was $81 out of pocket for me had they followed their estimate. I felt bullied and harassed. I wonder if they treat all seniors this way.

Yeah, NEVER coming back here again. F this place, I walk in looking for a wheel lock removal tool…read morethat Napa makes. Common tool. It's their brand. Walk in, dude greats me in Spanish. Apparently this Napa is in Tijuana! I speak Spanish well (I'm mexican) BUT not enough to describe what I need in Spanish, so I ask him in English. "Looking for a wheel lock removal socket". Dude stares at me like it's not his job to sell parts. He grunts a little and says "oh..." stares at his computer, looks at me and says "we don't have that" in broken English, doesn't even try to look up a part. I look at the other Mexican next to him "do you know what I'm talking about?" He types in stuff in the keyboard and says "oh no. We don't have that". So I say "okay, let me google the p/n for you. Look, here it is, on your Napa website. $13" He stares at my phone, types in something and says "oh, we don't have that. No one has it anymore." "So they don't make it or you have to order if?" "It's special order. 2 days" "How much?" "$23 and there is a freight charge of $18" "Why is there a freight charge? It's a freaken 1/2" drive socket. They shit can fit in my pocket" "I don't know.".... Freaken useless people, I hate when the employees act like they are doing you a favor when you walk in. If you don't like your job, quit.

First and foremost, George on the phone was very courteous and professional, even though he takes…read morehundreds of calls a day! It was a pleasure speaking with him! Napa had the best price out of 5 auto parts places shopped. I had an oil leak and had to replace the camshaft seals, timing belt, and water pump. I ordered for pick up and it was ready in a day. The cashiers were a riot, laughing and telling jokes with me while I waited for someone to bring out my parts. Be careful though, he almost didn't give me everything. I had to double-check the parts list before I left, and the guy had forgotten one box. Overall, this was a very good experience! Time will tell to see how these aftermarket parts hold up in my car... 3 weeks later: The mechanic said the seals were trash so he replaced it with ones he had. However, I still have a small leak so it's still tbd if these parts are the problem.... Another 3 weeks later: My trusty mechanic/owner Alex from Value Auto Repair took another look and no more oil leaks!
