They are so amazing and always fast and thorough!!! I am treated like family!! I highly recommend H & J Tire
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you’re not going to H&J Tire San Rafael, you’re going to the wrong place. Plain and simple. Chris, Phil, and the whole crew are the kind of people you hope to find in the auto world but rarely do. Honest, knowledgeable, zero BS, and they actually treat you like a human instead of a walking invoice.…
Honest. Reliable. What more needs to be said? This is the type of business that you celebrate when you find it because of the integrity of how they run their business and the value they deliver to customers I will never go to a big chain tire store again.
Chris provided comprehensive and friendly service from beginning to end, stating with a reminder call to help me schedule my appointment after I had to cancel, all the way through to service completion. The waiting area was comfortable - with great music - and free wi-fi so I could work while I waited. I observed…
H&J Tire is my go to for everything tires and brakes. Chris and his team are efficient and courteous. The service is great and the prices are fair. I won’t go anywhere else.
I have been going to H&J Tires for over 15 years, and Chris and his team have consistently provided outstanding service. They are always honest, transparent, and incredibly hardworking. They take the time to clearly explain what needs to be done, answer any questions, and make sure you understand your options. What…
H&J Tire has taken care of my trucks, my modern vehicles, and my Classic Mustangs since 1986. I trust them to do the best work for a fair price every single time. Brakes, tires, suspension, and if you ask nicely, even the occasional custom work.
I have been doing business with Dennis, his son Chris and the fantastic team at H&J Tire for over 20 years. I cannot recommend them enough. Highest quality service with the best prices make for an excellent value. I always enjoy seeing them, they live their families values everyday.
I have been an H&J Tire customer for years. Dennis and Cris are both fantastic. Their pricing is very competitive and their customer service is exceptional. I would recommend them and do recommend them to all of my friends and all of my business acquaintances. They are fantastic. You should go check them out!
It is rare to find a shop that combines top-tier technical expertise with old-school integrity. I’m very particular about who touches my cars, and the team at H&J Tire has earned my total trust. Chris and his father Dennis have been managing my fleet for years now, and their level of professionalism is unmatched.…
I’ve been to this locally owned tire shop in San Rafael two or three times now, and every experience has been excellent. It’s hard to find places these days that are honest, efficient, and genuinely customer-focused — but this shop checks all the boxes. Each time I’ve come in, they’ve been straightforward about…
The staff at H&J Tire in San Rafael are wonderful! Especially Chris & Phil! They are super knowledgeable and helpful! I’ve been bringing my cars to them for years. They are always fast & reliable!
I've used H & J tires on several occasions. I would highly recommend. Great, personalized service, always a great explanation of issues. I've dealt with Chris, who is so personable and I always feel confident that I'm getting the best price/service possible.
H & J tires is the only place our family goes to for our families tire needs! All of our experiences with this business have been fantastic! The owner Chris is incredibly personable and friendly. Would highly recommend them!
Been coming to H&J tire for many years, service is straight and easy. There is no pressure in upsell or anything, they give you your options and let you make you decision. They do make recommendations with explanations but no pressure to upsell on anything. Prices are great also.
I've taken my car in for tire replacements. The staff are super friendly, professional and quick. They were also able to advise on tire brands to help me find the best deal. Very happy with the service, and couldn't recommend H & J Tire highly enough.
These guys are friendly, courteous, fast, honest and transparent. I'm very happy with the work they did on my alignment and they caught a bent wheel and replaced it. I'm a little shocked at how much more smoothly my truck is driving- night and day. Competitive pricing too. Highly recommend.
