I used to be a regular Wheel Works customer, generally buying tires every few years for various cars I owned. But my last experience with Wheel Works left me with a sour taste and I'll neve go back. I had a flat on the freeway, I pulled over as fast as possible and changed the spare. on the way home I stopped at Wheel Works to get the flat fixed, but was met with a wall of fine print. First the rude woman at the counter told me the tire was damaged beyond repair and I'd need to buy a new tire. I then asked about the level of wear and she told me the tire was worn out afterall. So I brought up the fact that I was only 28000 miles into a 40000 mile warranty, but do you know what the rude woman said? I didn't get my tires rotated at Wheel Works! I get my oil changed elswhere, and rotate the tires there or in my own. but this didn't matter to Wheel Works. I will NEVER buy from them again!! read more

I have to say I was very very very disappointed with the service until I finally came a cross someone knowledgeable and professional. Jim, the service manager went beyond to fix all my problems. I have no doubt he'll turn that place around. read more

Typical bait and switch. We wanted a set of 4 tires that Mtn View didn't have, but Cupertino did. They claimed the courier would have them delivered by noon the next day. My wife takes the car over at noon, no tires. The guy claims they are "on the way" and says they'll get the car prepped. The hoist the car, remove the wheels, and trash the old tires, while my wife goes off to do some shopping. She back at 2, and the car is still up with no new tires. The courier showed with no tires. She can't leave because they have immobilized her car. They offer "even better" tires for the same price. My wife doesn't know what else to do, so goes for it. The tires turn out to be ok, but still not the highly-rated ones we had wanted. Never going back here again. read more

UPDATE: My Tire Pressure Monitor went off, which is supposed to be normal. I asked the agent at the front desk and he said it would turn off in 10 minutes. It never turned off. I checked the tire pressure the next day and the tires were inflated to 30 PSI. The sticker on the side of my vehicle states the tires should be filled to 39 PSI. Looks like they never read it. I have a portable air compressor so I inflated the tires to their factory recommended settings and the tire pressure monitor turned off immediately. I'm updating my rating to two stars because they let me drive off with under-inflated tires. The only redeeming star is they honored their $59.00 refund for taking longer than 59 minutes. ORIGINAL REVIEW: Like other reviews noted, this Wheel Works location takes their time installing tires. I ordered tires from TireRack.com and had them shipped to this location. It took them 4.5 hours to install four tires with alignment. Since I already expected a long wait, I walked to the cafe across the street to get work done while they installed my tires. Despite the long wait, the prices are good. I shopped around and for my tire size, 225/40R18, and at the time of this writing they charged about $18.00 per tire while other places around this area were charging $35.00 per tire. In addition, I asked the clerk to honor their $59.00 refund for taking longer than 59 minutes and he obliged. Cheaper installation prices and $59.00 cash back made it somewhat worthwhile since I was doing my normal work schedule at the coffee shop across the street. For people who have remote friendly jobs and don't have anything urgent the day of your appointment, this place isn't bad. Just set your expectations that you'll spend your whole day waiting for tire installation. I would not recommend this place for people who have busy schedules. read more

They always had the tires I needed in stock which is a huge plus. They lost my shiny stem caps...very annoying and I'm pretty sure they scraped my side mirror. So their attention to detail could be better. read more

Update: contacted the email the owner left me under this review and I've yet to be contacted back from them. Proceed with extreme caution

Not happy at all. Granted I did not have an appt. I walked in before 2pm for brake service. They quoted me 2-3hrs but nearly 3 hrs into my wait they hadn't even started my service. They invited me to come back the next day but I was just over it. This was a complete waste of my time Especially since I was there just waiting. I wish they would have told me up front or earlier that they would not be able to get to my car. This is my second experience with this provider and the first experience wasn't so great either. Never again Wheel Works. read more

I had a great experience at Wheel Works on 1/14/21. I was driving to work in the morning and saw there was an alert on my instrument panel that my left rear tire was low on air. I stopped to add some air and saw a nail and realized that it was a very slow leak. I have had great experiences at Wheel Works in the past so I looked for a location near my work office. I called the location and spoke with a nice gentleman who told me to stop on by and he would help me out. I didn't even need to make an appointment which was great. I arrived to the wheel works and Steven accompanied me out to my vehicle and told me he would get it fixed promptly. After looking at my tire which had the nail, the team notified me that they would be unable to fix it due to the nail being to far near the outside tread wall. I understand it is a safety concern. They also suggested that I replace the alternate rear tire as the tread was very low. Gil helped me look up some tires in the system. I wanted to go with the most economical tire which was the Primewell but they didn't have it in stock. Gil went out of his way to call other Wheel Works in the area and had the tires personally delivered. About an hour later they received the tires but they were the wrong type. They were actually the Firestone all weather tire instead of the Primewell. Gil acknowledged the error and gave me the Firestone tires which were more expensive for the price of the cheaper Primewell tire for the inconvenience. That is how you do business. He apologized and made it right. I want to give kudos to Steven and Gil for their great customer service. I appreciate the fact that they rectified the problem and were considerate to the fact that it had cost me some extra time to wait to get the correct tires. Because of their assistance and the fact that they took care of me, consider me a Wheel Works customer for life. It is rare in today's world that a business genuinely cares about their customers. Thank you Steven and Gil for treating me with respect and rectifying the problem. I hope that their supervisors can give them some positive recognition for a job well done. Thank you again and see you next time! read more

My boyfriend called in for a popped tire and they took him in ASAP. No wait and was in and out in 10 minutes! I was worried it was going to take too long because we had to pick up our dog from daycare. So impressed with the fast service!! We totally recommend coming and we will be coming back! read more

Exceptional service! Got my tires done and an oil change on my lunch break and they were friendly, professional and efficient. While waiting I walked around shopped and ate. Perfect location to kill time ;) They quoted me an hour and a half and it only took an hour and ten minutes. I'm all about convenience! read more

I went to Wheel Works with the "Winter Car Care" coupon. I have no complaints about the car care. They changed my oil and rotated my tires, etc. Nothing was wrong with my car, and they didn't try to sell me anything or convince me to do any unnecessary maintenance. The guy I talked to told me it would be done within an hour, but it was more like 1.5 hours, so I was a little annoyed by that. Service was polite and professional. read more

I'm probably a little biased since I'm within a decent walking distance. I've been there twice due to nails in my tires. I just drop off the car, tell them I'm going shopping at Target, and ask them to give me a call when they're done. It's very convenient with all the stores in the area to run errands and/or eat while you wait if you're getting something relatively quick done. It's not the most modern place, but they get the job done and do a decent job. They've also been very nice about rechecking the air in all my tires. The tire prices are decent, probably even better if I had bought during a sale. Look for coupons at the website before you go to the shop - wheelworks.net. read more

I came by this place with a screw in my 2013 WRXs tire after only 6000 miles; Barshawn (my apologies if I misspelled the name) was very quick to inspect the tire and assured me it would have no issues. I ended up taking my car to the track shortly after and had no loss in tire pressure. As the winter season gets closer, I went ahead and ordered a set of all-seasons. I brought the new set to Barshawn who promptly set me up with an appointment to get them on my car. Service was fast, cheap, and with excellent customer service. Will use them again. read more

I brought my car in yesterday, had it towed it because it died. I had called AAA and they used a jump box and determined my alternator was bad. Suggested I have it towed. They called a tow truck who immediately took out a jump box. They said the same thing. Today I called Wheelworks where my car is towed. Well the guys can't even jump my car because they don't have a jump box. WHAT?! Isn't that standard equipment? Unbelievable. They can't even give me a suggestion for it because they can't do the test without the jump box. I am so dissappointed in this place. The Service Manager said the Store Manager is not even doing anything about it. I don't even know what to do at this point since they can't even test the car to fix it. And it won't start (remember it was towed in.) I will be going higher up the food chain on this one. I'll update this post with more information. Don't bring your car here!!!!! read more

We brought our Honda Odyssey in for new tires and a 100,000 miles service. Kyle and his team did a great job. They went above and beyond customer service wise. Needing a major service was not inexpensive, but I also felt confident that they were not charging me anything above what needed to be done on my car. It felt good to have honest people working on my car, not trying to pull a fast one. read more

2.5 full hours for 2 tire changes and an oil change. The man said "it will be quick." After 2h my car had not moved, then he said sorry and they'd take it in, "maybe 5mins left." There was a full 30m left after this. If someone had just told me it would take so long, I would have left to eat or do anything other than sit on my phone waiting seemingly endlessly. I would really have preferred some honesty. read more

I just went over there because they had an ad in the Sunday paper for a discount on an oil change (it's one of those ads that's hard to miss because it's attached to the comics...), and the ad mentions right below the oil change price that they're open on Sunday. So I get there, and I'm informed that they don't do oil changes on Sundays (!?) because they don't have filters in stock for most cars....and they only get deliveries on weekdays. The manager wasn't really apologetic although he offered to schedule me for another day. I've previously had a good experience with them with alignment, so that's the only reason I'm not giving them one star. Waste of time - at least in this case. Arrgh. read more

Been coming here for the last 20 years or so. Haven't been back here for a few years but needed some new tires for my RV. Staff was very helpful. I did bring in the wheels without the RV as it would be too big for their lifts but service was excellent. read more

Don't take there word. Thy will never be ready at time. If you are thinking abut a fast oil change- done come here! I came in 20 min before my appointment but thy are late. Why it takes two hours to change oil?? read more

Dishonest store - bait and switch! I was sent an online quote of $89.99 for a wheel alignment for my specific year & model of car. Took my car in and verified that price when I dropped it off, and then after waiting for 2 hours was told that they wouldn't actually honor that [written] quote, and that their cost would be $289 instead. read more

They replaced 2 tires because of a nail in one of them which appeared to be not needed at all. That costed me $300. Another time I went to another tire service with the same problem. To pull out the nail and fix the tire costed $15. Giving 3 stars just because I don't want to be unfair. I'm not completely sure that the tire could be repaired (maybe the puncture was larger than ¼ inch (6 mm) or was outside repairable tread area), but it looked the same as in the second case and it was successfully repaired. So at least double check such cases with another service. read more

So rude. Steven is rude and clearly doesn't care one bit about the customer experience. I have been going there for years and years. I will not be returning. read more

I went to Wheel Works for my life time warranty on my alignment for my car. Wheel Works then said I needed 4 new tires. Well I bought the needed 4 new tires and got the alignment. Then when I picked up the car Wheel Works said I needed a new arm for the car for $1,600! Well, I already spent $1,600 for 2 new arms at the Magnussen Toyota dealership in 11/2016 so I just brought my car to Toyota since the arms should be under warranty. Toyota said the arms were fine on the car and I did not need a new arm! Toyota took pictures of the intact arms. I am so upset that I had to waste my time on an inaccurate problem. read more

I wish this place was closer to my home, but it is worth the drive for honest and professional work. I had two really bad experiences at Capital Honda Service Center. I felt as if they were trying to take advantage of me because I'm a female who knows nothing about cars. That may be true, but I'm smart enough to say no and seek a second opinion. I went to wheel works for a second opinion and they let me know about 75 percent of the work Honda said I needed immediately was not needed. Also, the prices are better here. Ask for Barshawn H.; he took good care of me and my hello kitty car. Barshawn always goes above and beyond when it comes to customer service. This is my second time here and I always leave with a smile and extra money for lunch! read more

Brought my old lexus here to get my brakes checked and they told me that bushings were cracked, rotors needed to be replaced, and brake pads were gone and it was going to cost me $1,400 to fix it. I didnt believe them so I brought it to my mechanic friend and he told me that all of these things were fine. This place will scam you. Do not trust them. read more

I've never had such a pleasant experience getting tires before! Victor and Sunam were both so accommodating and helpful. I was a walk in customer and I came pretty late in the day but they squeezed me in and offered me some great tires at a decent price and I even got a free $60 visa gift card out of it! I highly recommend this place. read more

Wow, I wish my jaguar dealer had this kind of service. My tire pressure light came on today, and i called wheel works, afraid i was going to have to consider multiple new tires. The assistant manager was incredibly friendly, and said although they were busy i should come on in. he found the nail in 30 seconds flat. he told me upfront it would take a couple hours given the backlog, but he would get it done by 5 (it was 2300. AT 415, my phone rang and $31 later my car was ready! read more

This goes out to the Barshawn, Luis, and the staff on Sunday 8/18. My husband scheduled an appointment for an oil change first thing as they opened. He was able to get priority over those who walked in before him. The oil change included the normal maintenance work and inspection for a cheaper price than other competitors. Tons of coupon/discounts are on their website. They recommended new tires and honor the Costco prices and promotions, but why not get it at Wheelworks who also do alignments? Its like a Walmart for auto service. Barshawn and Luis were respectful front deskmen, no attitudes and on your side to save a buck. read more

Had a flat tire because of a nail but they did a pretty well rounded job on putting on the new one. They balanced it out afterwards too and made sure that I knew everything that was going on in regards to my tire. Only downside was that it was suppose to be done within the hour but ended up taking longer since they were short handed. I came back from the gym across the street and they started right when I got there, so then it took another 20 mins. Besides that, they're pretty friendly easily approachable. read more

Stay away from this place. Bait and switch. They switched the quote I got from Victor. They wanted to charge me more than the dealer. Stay away from this place. I am not coming back. I used to bring my cars here long time ago and I stopped because a similar situation. I thought I tried them again since I live across the street. Big mistake and a waste of time. read more

Expenvive but good job, you have to wait a little longer but worth it honestly, I took my car there to change all 4 tires for my car and they had Michelin's tires available which was the only way to go for me cuz the previous tires were Chinese and cheap and the car started to make noice. So I decided to change even they were almost new. No more cheap tires for me read more

Took my Cayenne here to have all terrain tires and wheels mounted, and Sanam was super attentive to detail, helpful, and really polite, despite my very specific requests with the installation. I had a great experience, Sanam is really dedicated to his customers and I will be coming back every time I have car maintenance needs! read more

I felt very upset and frustrated about their way to treat customer like this. I had an appointment and I told them I will wait for there since the person told me that they need 1.5 hour to change my 2 tires. But after 2 hours, my car was still in the parking lot. They hadn't even started on my car. I felt it's really strange. I asked them why and No one answered me. If I didn't remind them, I might have to wait 8 hours until they were closed. I was not sure they forgot my car or doing this in purpose. One more hour later, I found my car was back to the parking lot again and no one told me anything. I checked the new installed tires, and I felt very surprised that the new tires are very dirty, greasy and dust. Some white glue stuck on the tires. They looked as used tires. I really doubt if they are new. I thought I could leave or ready to leave, but they told me that my car need alignment, I felt really upset. I asked why didn't let me know early? I told them very clear. at the beginning They said we were busy. I wondered if they did alignment check. If so, they were supposed to ask me right away. They would not take my car to the parking lot. However, they took my car back for alignment. I paid about $450 for two tires and waited for more than 4 hours. Don't you think this is so ridiculous! It shouldn't take 4 hours to change two tires and alignment. Also No one followed up. In the result, and let me waited for over 4 hours. Damn. I feel very disappoint about wheel works in Mountain View. I can't trust them at all. They are nice only for sales but not for the services. Also they are not honest with quotes. They lead you to spend more if you are not careful or you don't know car well. In this point, I like Goodyear and American tires. With my experience, I would not recommend anyone use them. read more

I am waaay late writing a review for this place. I bought some tires here back in October 2013. The sales person was Barshawn Haynes. It was an exceptional experience. When I buy tires I always go online and do my research (tirerack.com, Consumer Reports, etc). I found some highly rated tires for my Nissan. These are odd sized tires that are not common for many cars, so finding them is not easy. I first called Americas' Tire Company which was right around the corner from my house. They told me that the tire I wanted was not common and that it would have to be ordered. So I asked them how long it would take. They said they'd have to call me back with an answer. Nothing wrong with that. So I left my number. I never got a call back. I called them back only to get a bit more of the run around. I then called another smaller mom and pops type of tire company locally. They could get the tire on special order, but it was going to cost considerably more. I tried a couple of more shops with similar experiences. I don't know why I called them last. Honestly, there was no reason. But when I called Wheel Works, Barshawn stepped up and helped me out. He had product knowledge no one else had. Explained to me that the tire was not typically in stock because as far as he knew it was only used for one make and model of vehicle. However, he said that he could specially order it. I asked how long that would take. He said within a few days, which worked perfectly for me. What was also good with Wheel Works is that the price that they offered was equal to the lowest price for that same tire that I was able to find advertised elsewhere. So I didn't have to check if they had a price matching promo or ask if they would do that which is typically a common thing. They were already at the best price. All the guys working in the shop were really nice. I also happened to be a bit rude that day as I was in a hurry and pulled my car up in front of their garage blocking it off. I could tell after I did that it was an obstruction to them. Rather than say something to me, or get upset, they made an unoffensive joke about it. They could have used that as an opportunity to get frustrated or nasty with me, but didn't. Barshawn was a nice guy. Spent time to talk to me about the product and the services that their business offer. All in all this shop was a good experience for price, sales and service quality and speediness of getting the tire swap completed. Although I live about 15-20 miles away from this shop and now have other Wheel Works closer to my new home, I am seriously going to drive the distance back to this place for my future business as it left such a good impression on me. Thanks guys! read more

They want to charge $180 to place a screw they admittedly broke. My friend took her car today around noon to Wheelworks at Mountainview. Here is the case. When she bought new tires a few months ago, they broke one of the screws. They said they could not replace the tires otherwise. However, they did not replace the broken screw. They asked my friend to find a new matching screw. She did and went today and they asked $180 to replace that one screw. The one that they initially broke anyway. I tried to discuss with them. How can they break something to install tires and have no responsibility to fix it. They do not deny they broke it, keeping on saying it had to be done. You can't reason with them. What a waste of time. read more

Mo, Kyle and Isabel (and the technicians) are a solid team. Do your homework before you begin, as Mo and Kyle will negotiate, and are "straight shooters". Shop does excellent work. The other negative reviews here are from people with minor problems, and those who don't schedule their work (when possible). Go there on weekday mornings, if possible, for quick, efficient turnaround. Recommended. read more

Horrible and incompetent. Took my car into the shop due to a tire leak(took it in for the same issue about 4 Time ). Long story short they could not fine an obvious nail stuck in my tire (took it over to skips tires in Los Altos and they found it within seconds. Store manager said he had his best guy try and locate the leak and was unsuccessful. I doubt he ever checked the vehicle because skips tires found the nail literally in seconds. They then proceeded to inform me that my tire pressure monitoring system sensors needed to be replaced ($800.00) long be hold skips tires informed me the sensors were perfectly fine. Lucky I was smart enough to get a second opinion. I wonder how many other people they have actually scammed. Manager tries and come off very nice, they are scammers! Avoid this place read more

Sanam and team totally took care of me, and went the extra mile to get a new battery installed, it was a fringe case, and they were customer sided, which was great read more

I received Super customer services by Barshawn Haynes which took care of my tire problems and found the best and easiest solutions for getting me back to work on time. He went over and beyond and gave me a rental car at no extra expense to me. He was proficient and caring. I have to also mention and give thanks to the hard working, multitasking Monica who completed my transaction with the speed off light and Lian for his knowledge. The only thing that this place needs is air conditioner to keep these hard working people comfortable and cool. IW read more

This is the best tire place I been to. They were the oly place that had the high performance potenza tires for our bmw 325 and the matched tirerack.com price so I got it done right on the spot. They provide free rotation and balancing for life time of my tires. BMW was not happy that I didn't pay them 300$ extra for OEM install lol. Two year latter and it looks like For once I might get the full rating out of my tires. Going yearly makes sure the tires are aligned and not wearing down. I will use them to service my beamer once my warranty runs out for oil and suspension system. Other bonuses is they are right beside target and shopping center.they always have a coupon in the paper so mke sure you get one, or they will give you if you ask nicely The only con is they are very busy always so drop your car of if you can or go shopping read more
