Bears Tires for tires

They started to charge a fee for flat tire fix on my new Tesla. Previously, it was free, so I never needed to rethink it. That is why I had purchased two sets of tires in the shop before. Obviously, they decide to only take care of sold tires. Service is still good. Job done quickly. But I still prefer to get noticed first if policy changes.
I've known Mike at Bears for over 20 years and have used this shop regularly during that time. No pressure sales and only sell you what you need, not what they need to sell you. Always an honest assessment of your tires and truly want to get you the best value for your vehicle. Highly recommended and a customer for life.
Very quick service, drive right up, waited less than an hour
Great place! The owner is very patient, polite and honest! He explained everything to me. Tires arrived on time and the job was done quickly. I liked that no one tried to sell me alignment . I thought I needed it. But they looked at my worn tires and gave me proper info.
We've been using Bears tires for over 30 years now, well before there was anything like Yelp or Google reviews. I remember my father-in-law telling me about them years ago, and I was doing the same today, recommending them to a friend, when it occurred to me that a review was in order, so here it is: Bears Tires…
This is one of those hidden gem places that IYKYK and if you don't, you may never find out. If you have not purchases tires there, they may or may not patch tires for free. I have experienced both outcomes. Later, I made a mistake identifying my trim and ordered the wrong tires. Issue was found at install time.…
I highly recommend Bears Tires. The staff is very friendly and helpful.
Hands-down, this is the best tire shop I’ve ever been to whether you’re bringing in your older Toyota Camry or a brand new supercar. I trust them with any of my vehicles. They are polite, knowledgeable, and very efficient. I would not bring my car anywhere else.
they are the best guys to buy tire from and eaven to fix it when no body else are able to do that the staff where very helpful
This place was great. Got 2 new tires for my Chevy Spark for less than $180, and the install took less than 30 minutes even though there were two customers in front of me. Could not recommend more.
Excellent service! They found the exact tire I needed in no time and got me back on the road quickly. Friendly, professional, and very efficient. Highly recommended!
Had a great experience with this shop! Happy to recommend it to anyone who has the need for new tires.
Fast. Reliable. Friendly. Highly recommend!!
I had a great experience at Bears Tires in San Diego. Chris did an excellent job aligning my Mustang GT. I also needed new TPMS sensors due to aftermarket wheels, and they completed everything in less than a day. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient throughout the process. Service was quick, pricing…
I had my car in for 4 new tires and an alignment. Good service, great price. Highly recommend.
Bear Tires is the place, man. Great people, fair prices, and they always go above and beyond.
Always a great experience
Helped diagnose 2 issues I caused by messing around with my car - stripped toe adjustment washer and loose lug nuts - on 2 separate occasions for no charge. Amazing service and owners. Custom alignment was spot on too. I never write google reviews, but this place deserves one. If you’re looking for an alignment,…
Crazy good service. I had 4 tires installed on brand new rims for my tesla mode S Plaid. Louis took great care of it (but they are all good over there). Appointment is a breeze as these guys are always trying their best to send you back on your journey. Very impressed. I will bring all my cars over there from now…
Absolutely legendary service. I got a nail in my rental car tire, and these guys repaired, balanced, and remounted it for me in 30 minutes as a walk-in. They even took the time to fit the jack back in its holder when they replaced the spare, which I hadn't done. To top it all, they didn't charge me for the…
Fantastic service, good prices and very fast! They got new tires put on my 34' travel trailer in under an hour as a walk in! Would recommend these guys any time!
