    Beware of bait and switch from this business Years back, I went to a tire shop on sand island (Mikole St) and didn't like how I was serviced there. I had a slow leak and told a plug was $10. An hour later, I was charged $26 ($1 dollar tax) because the guy said a patch was better. He didn't give me the option to make that decision. After running a whole bunch of potholes after this Kona Low storm, I have a slow leak again in one of my tire. Not sure if it can be repaired (I was putting air every day), I brought my spare new tire. My thinking was if the tire cannot be plugged or patched, I will have them replace with my own tire. The guy working could not find the leak (he had informed me that they are now charging $35 for a patch now) so he suggested I change out my tire. I agreed. I asked him if the price was still $25 since they had increased their price for a patch. He said they charge $25 for the dismount, mount and balance service. I told him I will take my old tire back. Before he put my tire back, he wanted me to pay and the invoice says $35. I told him he charged me the wrong price. He said the additional $10 was for tire disposal. But I was taking my tire back. He said they charge the additional $10 no matter what. Although the $10 is not a lot of money, it's the principle behind this. They advertise $25 patch and $25 for change-out tire service, but when you get there, you realize it's a bait and switch tactics. I will never going to use their service no more.

    Nail in tire

    As I was driving into town, I noticed that my tire light went on and my car was swerving to one side, so I decided to head straight to VIP Tires to see what was going on. The technicians were very informative letting me know that I had a nail in my tire and there were a couple options for me. I could either do an inside patch for $25 or a plug for $10. which were both good deals. We opted for the patch because as Victor stated, "it's almost like a new tire because your tires are still good". They did the job really quick and had excellent customer service. I drove away very confident that my tire was fixed by professional technicians. I will definitely be going back for all my tire needs.

    I don't keep cars long enough to have to buy tires. This is the second time I bought tires in my life. First time I picked up Michelin tires for my LS460L and I remember it being on the pricey side. When I leased my most recent Benz from CA, I was told that I can return the tires bald and it'll be ok as long as no wires are showing. It's great but the dealership here in HI said I had to replace them. Maybe because I didn't get the vehicle from them? Not sure but it's another reason why the Mercedes Benz dealership here sucks. If I didn't replace the tires, they would but charge the usual dealership markup. Since I have run flats, it would have been pricey for new tires that I would never use. Why burn a several hundred dollars when you don't have to? That's a lot of bowls of pho! I called around and was recommended to contact VIP Tires (same company as VIP Towing). They told me to come down to see what they have in stock since tires are sold on a first come, first serve basis. When I arrived, Victor helped me. I told him I needed two 225/45/18 run flat tires of the same brand. He said give him a few minutes and he'll go see what they have in stock. A few minutes later he came back and said they had two Pirelli run flats. What luck! They said it's rare to have matching run flats. I asked how long and they said 30 minutes but I didn't have 30 minutes so they said 20 minutes then I consented. Didn't feel like coming back later in traffic. They started on my vehicle right away after I pulled into their garage. Luckily I had the wheel lock handy on me. I waited outside till they were done. It only took them about 15 minutes so that was quick! They asked if I wanted to dispose the tires myself or have them do it for $10/each tire. I had them dispose it. Regular tires for 18 inch rims were $85/tire but run flats were $100/tire. This included balancing and installation. Total came out $210 cash (got a $10 discount). This was the perfect cheap resolution that I was looking for. Would I buy used tires for a car I'm going to be driving? No, I wouldn't but they were the best answer for my current tire problem. I highly recommend them if you need used tires for safety check or to return a leased vehicle to the dealership. Customer service is excellent and the price is right. 4.5 stars! You won't be disappointed with the service. Heads up, all sales final and no refunds.

    WOOHOO TO CHEAP TIRES! Location: Located near the end of Sand Island access road, make a right onto Ulupono, then go all the way down Mikiole street. The ROUNDABOUT at the end is where this place is located. Flags waving to indicate youre in the right place! Service: Nicest staff ever! All local guys who just fix cars and they have great customer service skills. (Note: Some of the guys are flirty). Wait Time: Got there at 9:30 AM, got my car in the shop to be serviced by 10:00 AM, and left by 10:50 AM with ALL FOUR tires changed! Quick! Prices: Yes the prices are as advertised online! If in doubt, call them to double-check prices for your vehicle. Paid $200 for four tires. ALSO, staff shows the tread on the tires theyre putting on your car - Dont like it? Well theyll keep searching for the perfect tires for you!) Location: The shop is small! Not much seating other than a bench outside the shop. Susceptible to the weather! Payment: CASH ONLY! No cards. ATM located in shop with a $200 MAXIMUM withdrawal, plus a $4 transaction fee! Come prepared! Exact change only as well. Parking: Park near large trash can in roundabout while waiting for your car to get serviced. Minimum traffic plus barely any foot traffic unless its other customers. Overall: I was so happy to get four tires for a fraction of what I wouldve paid for BRAND NEW tires. I highly recommend this place to those who are in desperate need of tires soon!

    Cheap tires and cheap mounting if you bring your own tires as well. But if you actually care about your wheels be prepared for them to get destroyed!!! All my wheels were damaged on the rims and on the inner barrel as well! $25 per tire mounted to wheel $10 per tire for old

It was awesome here! Made an appointment on the phone, also added in some TPMS sensors. Service was great the owner has a dual use small garage, where he also services printers or supplies toner. The tire section is on the other part of the shop. Very happy with the service and quality of the work would definitely come here again!

    After getting my oil change and tire rotation at another business they weren't able to do my tire…read morerotation because I had a huge bubble on the outside of my tire so I was in search of a place where I could get my tires replaced and I've heard so many good things about Best Buy Tires and this was my first choice and after giving them a call Owner Wes answered my call right away and have me quotes over the phone. What I really liked about Wes was that he gave me options and prices over the phone which really impressed me. He wasn't out there trying to price gouge me and sell me the most expensive tires out there I chose one that would fit into my budget and I was very happy with the result. The prices here for tires were very reasonably priced and I know for a fact that other places would've charged me an arm and a leg for it. And the best part he took me in the very next day and ordered my tires as soon as I finished talking to him. And also there is no excruciating wait because he goes by appointment only so I know he can get on putting my new tires in right away. I got my two brand new tires put in no more than an hour. That's crazy fast!!!! Wes is simply the best. Hard to find honest people out there but with people like Wes it assures me that there are still some great people out there with great customer service. I'm definitely coming back when my two back tires start to get bald. So if you guys are looking at getting some brand new tires at a really good price, hit up Wes here at Best Buy Tires. His place is in Kalihi right past the 7-11 on 1124 Kohou St. just look for the Excalibur Sign.

I called the first time to inquire, and then called the second time to just say how awesome the experience was. If you plan to do walk-ins, the shop does say it closes at 5:00pm, please know that their walk-ins are from 8:00am until 4:00pm!
