They are so slow. I was told 30 min. wait time it has been 2 hours. The waiting area is so dirty it should scare normal people. I have disabilities and can't wait for this long of a time period. It's so sad. read more

O...M...G.... These guys are amazing!!! Not only have they been around for a few decades working and building in our community but gave us an amazing deal on our transmission. We barely made it to their shop. They got us a quote and rented us a car until ours is finished. I can't say enough about Tony and Terry. Good guys excellent reputation... read more

They match the group on price, when you buy on that they get $0.00 so go in and ask for the group on deal and you will get the best service with a good deal SAVE $$$$$$ Now the service was awesome had no issues and the oil change that is a 45 min wait else where was on and out here with a 25 min wait!! Love the service and the deal I got!! Tyler was the the one that helped me out ask for him but honestly the whole staff was amazing, the honest people!! read more

I have a 2004 Ford F-150 that needed some attention. I always shop around but when I spoke to Terry on the phone I knew I found the right spot to take my truck. He was friendly, honest, and super helpful. I brought my truck in right away. I live in Ceres so it was a drive, but worth it. The overall experience turned into multiple days, but everything I was concerned with was taken care of. Control arms replaced, oil change, alignment, tire rotation, and they did a 21 point inspection. In total everything was reasonably priced and they didn't try to upsale me. read more

I took my class C RV there for an oil change, brakes and tires. They gave me a few estimate options as well as recommendations. The service was great. They were very informative and got the job done on time. I have nothing but good things to say about the customer service. Also, an important thing of note is I am a women and have had other shops try to price gouge me or recommend things I did not need. Nothing like that with this shop. I will continue to return. read more

Purchased 4 Michelin Ps4s tires and a synthetic oil change for my GTI today, the tires are a lil hard to find in stock locally in my size. Tony ordered the tires from Sacramento and had them installed the same day that I called Big O Tires. The Big O employees were friendly and courteous and helpful. I appreciated the auto tech showing me exactly what was wrong with my one slightly bent wheel on the wheel balance machine and going over a visual inspection of the wheels condition on the car before the repair was started, the wheels were even wiped after the tires were installed. Very happy with my service today at Big O Tires on McHenry in Modesto,Ca. I'll deff be back in the future for other repairs. Thanks Tony and crew! read more

Love that they have always been able to help in my hour of need! A low tire is never convenient but Big O Tires has always been able to accommodate me that day. They have replaced tires, plugged tires and filled my tire. I appreciate the friendly service and honest advice. Thank you and your staff for the great service rendered to my household of vehicles. read more

Came in on a Saturday morning. There were quite a few people already in the waiting area so I thought they'd be busy. But I walked in, was assisted right away, told them I had a flat and they fixed it right away. Quick & painless. Also, staff was friendly. read more

I recently went in for a new set of tires. They were amazing! Customer service was great and I was in and out in almost no time at all! They were so accommodating!! Thank you again guys!!! read more

Took my car in due to a whining noise from the left front wheel, sounding like a wheel bearing going bad. the tech looked at the car and said the wheel bearing was fine. However, he did say I needed new brakes and other front end repairs that may be the cause of the noise. Twelve hundred dollars later I took the car home with the same noise. Took it to another mechanic who replaced the wheel bearing and the noise was gone. Never again will Big-O touch one of my vehicles. read more

The actual car work is OKAY overall, but the staff and location practices are ANNOYING. I've been here a few times over the years and each time I remember why I avoid this particular location. It's a headache trying to get anything done here! First off they don't make appointments, it's first come first serve. Don't fool yourself into thinking you'll get a spot when they first open. After waiting a ridiculous amount if time they'll take hours to get a simple service done. A oil change and tire rotation shouldn't take 2+ hours after I've already waited 2 hours. If you can't perform work in a timely manner tell me so I can take my business elsewhere. The long wait times must be why the majority of the clients are old retirees who have all day. Modesto isn't a town that lacks car care centers so I suggest going somewhere else, anywhere else if you don't want to waste an entire day getting simple car maintenance taken care of. read more

We last minute needed a full set of tires, and Big O helped us out! We called ahead of time, and they were so kind to make room for us. We arrived only 30 minutes before closing, and Terry was nothing but kind to us. They had us in and out in 30 minutes, and we so appreciated their help with our last minute tire emergency! Thank you! read more

Went here Monday morning before they opened to get tires balanced on rental vehicle I had. First car there and was told they need authorization before they can do the work. I call enterprise to let them know and the rep tells me he will call them to get it rushed thru, rep calls me back and says can't get thru just voicemail so I see the guy I talked to and tell him the rep couldn't get anyone on the phone he just blows me off and says well I'm the only one at the counter and we are a little busy and I have a line backed up now, I'm sorry but I was here before anyone and balancing 4 tires would not take that long and I am sure that enterprise is in good standing with your company. The guys energy completely changed from our first encounter to the last for whatever reason. So I just got my keys and took it to another shop. People don't care about customer service anymore. read more

I highly recommend these guys, I took my car there after searching for other places. This was the most convenient, fast, and professional shops that I talked to. Everybody knew what they were talking about and you could definitely tell that they were there for the customers and that's what I appreciate. I will be taking my car there from now on. Great job guys keep up the good work! read more

Poor Data Policy - I don't know if this is prevalent throw-out of Big O facilities. Service employees stated that they lost their data a year ago -- that means data was gone. That means that that they have poor policy of availability. That means, they have poor service. As an Analyst myself, we call this company not exercising due care and careless as hell. All companies I worked for had triple backups of all their data. Note: I've been going to Big since 1994. After 2014, their services have been degrading. read more

Best tire store in Modesto! They have an awesome new alignment machine that gets your vehicle "dialed in", and they align front and back. When installing new tires, the balancing is excellent, too. And they have really good prices. The guys at the front counter are very knowledgeable and try to provide the best advice for each customers needs. read more

Found them on Groupon paid for an alignment and then Made an online appointment for the alignment for Friday 3pm showed up 15 minutes early and was told that they were too busy and that they are not approving my appointment and that I would have to come back another day , asked them when would be a good day to come back they said Saturday, I asked about Monday , they said no problem lots of appointments open for Monday, I asked about noon on Monday , he said no problem you are scheduled for Monday at noon, I show up today at 11:45 am I'm early for the appointment they set, i let them know that I'm here for my noon appointment, they said there all booked up and it would be 3 pm at the earliest and probably even later than that , I ask what happened to my noon appointment , they say that it's been busy and some people showed up late and that I should just leave them the car and they will hopefully get to it later, I let them know that I can't just leave the car how would I get home and I'm not going to be standing in the sun in the parking lot for 3 4 or 5 hours waiting, I could understand that there running a little behind but 3 hours! they need to start calling there scheduled customers to arrive later and not waste our time read more

I am very unhappy with my experience at this location. I made a 3:45 appointment to bring my car in for an alignment (purchased through Groupon). I arrived early & was told the tech was at lunch, to return no later than 4:15. I returned at 4:07 and was told that they were 'backed up' and would not be able to work on my car!!! What is this unprofessional mess?????? The guy COULD have told me when I arrived early that they were having problems, OR he could have taken my phone when I set the appointment and called me before I drove all the way to find out they don't have their act together. His best offer was to tell me to return tomorrow!!! Seriously???? I took the time off work TODAY!!! My advice - go someplace else. This store has no concept of customer service. I'm asking Groupon for a refund. read more

Alex your the man! Came in with my 2018 Subaru WRX after changing suspension parts and he got the specs I wanted. Did an awesome job and the car feels great. Thanks Big O tires! read more

I gave it one star because it's the only way I could continue this review.This is a place that we went to for years......until the last time. When Senior ran the place? Excellent service. Now that it's been passed down to Tony? They need lessons in customer service and knowledge of tires! Tony doesn't care about customer satisfaction. We bought new tires all around. When I took it on the freeway I could hardly keep it straight. Vibration was terrible. Unfortunately I was on my way to the airport to catch a flight. Long story short, the car went back two times, with no success in solving the balance problem. On our third visit, they decided to tell us the problem was our car. Brakes, etc Really??! Took it to McCoy Tires the next day. The problem was fixed in 20 minutes. Big "O" gets a big ZERO in my book. read more

I ordered online to receive a $100 discount. They confirmed my order and my appointment including the discounted rate, however refused the discount in person. The only reason I got tires here was because of the discount, which they refused. The customer service rep, Kevin, is clearly new to customer service. He would not even look at the invoice I was sent by Big-O. He claimed that he couldnt honor the discount because the website us a nation-wide website that doesnt represent their store. If that's the case, then dont book appointments through it. read more

I had to come here to get the oil changed for a vehicle I rented from enterprise (long story...). This and Pep Boys were the only places they would let me go. They were done quickly, I just couldn't stand the way the manager was openly condescending to his employees. read more

I was very pleased with the service I received at big o tires. I was greeted and waited on in a timely manner. The guy working on my car (bald guy don't remember his name) was friendly and helpful. I will be back for all my car needs. read more

They got me in the same day and took care of the work but took a little longer then expected. Alignment was off and had to take it back to get fixed. They took care of it no problem. Nice people. read more

A plastic part was broken during my oil change so I placed a call and explained what I found and spoke to Tony who took immediate action and asked me to come in. I went in and explained and showed him and with no pushback he said he would order the part and take care of it. He checked if Nissan had the part in stock first so I wouldn't have to wait and he got it for me within 10 mins and installed it. Tyler was also very helpful and educated me on how to read my tires and what to look for. As well as providing knowledge on batteries! Although something was broken it wasn't detrimental to the car and was completely made up for with excellent service! Thanks Tony and Tyler at mchenry big o tires! read more

If you are in the Motown and you get a SOS the great folks at Big O got you covered. Been a long term customer of Firestone big mistake. Got a nail in tires bought from them with road hazard warranty. They flat refused to help me. Do not be fooled by amateurs. Trust your auto needs to Big O Tires #BigOTiresCares These folks understand. As a emergency first responder I need to get fast accurate service at a good price. When people call 911 they expect me to be right on the spot and fix them. Big O Tires gives you the same care and treatment. Thanks Chris and the Big O Team! read more

I was in and out quickly and they addressed all my needs at an affordable price, EXCELLENT service. To avoid long waits I would recommend a weekday morning. read more

My first visit and it was good not the second. It was horrible. I was told I had leaky radiator. I didn't. I was told I had and oil leak. I didn't. read more

Bought a new set of bigfoot tires from here.. Had the tires on hand and for a great deal read more

Big O Tires - Tires Near Me - Modesto, California

See all

We were driving back home from vacation when we hit a pot hole on Highway 5. We just bought our new tires from Big O in Healdsburg so we decided to go to the nearest Big O store for help. We arrived and found out that our tire was not in stock and we would have to wait until the next day. I explained that we needed to get home that day and we only had a donut type spare tire to get home on. The manager was so great. He gave us a used tire in our size and mounted and balanced it for us so we could make it home. I asked how much I owed for the service and he said how about a hand shake. What a great guy and service. I can't thank him and Big O enough for bailing us out if a bad situation. I will continue to be one of their customers. I have read some of the other reviews on this store and can't understand how the experiences with them can differ so much. I give them a 10. read more

2 hr wait for an oil change.. The whole time im waiting they just try to upsell every customer. EVERYONE needed new tires, an alignment, ect. Funny as I just had my car inspected at the dealership day prior.. The thing that angered me the most is when i got my car back the glove box was messed with and my bag in the back was opened. STAY AWAY! read more

I came in to change my tires. Told me it was going to be an hour to an hour 45 min to be done. I was there for 3 hour total. They got the job done it just took them a while. But they were busy. read more

DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE. Beware of Tyler, Terry, Tony. The three stooges will fool you, they put on a "nice guy front." Only in it for greed and the good old up-sale, they will take advantage of every person they come in contact with. They will make everything seem like a breeze over the phone just to get you in the door to be at their mercy !!! DO NOT FALL FOR THE FAKE PHONE PERSONA. THEY LIE TO GET YOU IN THE DOOR AND WILL MESS UP TO KEEP YOU COMING BACK! Tony is a daddy's boy, being the son of the owner. He will never leave or be replaced for that reason only. I asked him for upper managements number and he refused to give it to me. That's fine, I got it from corporate. BIG O' MISTAKE hombre!! He has been a manager for over 20 years and blames customers for not asking for services. But in the same breath will sell you things your vehicle DOESN'T NEED!!! He offered me an oil change 1/2 off !!!! After I waited over 3 hours for an alignment! Imagine a world were they have the guts to offer you half off a oil change BUT NOT ONCE OFFER a free balancing for the trouble of waiting over 3 hours. Well thats the world we live in. With unbalanced tires they let me drive down the road and my steering wheel was shaking uncontrollably on the highway!! Complete disregard for customer safety, they couldn't make the situation right from start to finish. On top of that they rush you out thinking you're ignorant enough to pay and leave without even getting the service you paid for !!! Complete failure of a manager trickling down to every other kiss a#% that works there. Scheduled appointments get you a wait time of over 3 HOURS. Good luck for the ppl who expect walk-ins to be less than 3 hours. Go to your local tire shop save the trip, support small independent tire shops. The O in big O is Overrated, Overpriced and Obnoxious. I got customers to walk out with me that day they couldn't believe how I was treated with a wait time of over 3 HOURS. I won't stop exposing this place till it turns into a museum. Unprofessional mechanics that drive your vehicle like they stole it, they call it a "test drive." They make the customers with luxury vehicles a priority, while disingenuously offering help to average customers while still prioritizing luxury vehicles as their hidden priority. STAY AWAY, they are all crooks and deserve what they get coming to them in life. I'll let karma take care of the rest of these clowns. ZERO stars. read more

Writing this a review after waiting to 'cool down'.... Big O used to be the premier place in Modesto to take your vehicle, providing nothing but excellent service. Key words 'used to be.' I took my vehicle in for an oil change using a Groupon purchase. When indicating my preferred oil, I was told they used a different brand and I couldn't use my groupon purchase if I wanted the named oil. I cancelled my Groupon, asked how many quarts I'd need, was told 2, which I questioned but the guy on the phone said, 'Yes, only 2.' I purchased the 2 qts. of oil, went in for my appt, and was told that he meant 2 5-qt bottles. I ended up having to repurchase the Groupon so I could get the work done as my appt was already scheduled around my job. Then they decided to rotate my evidently brand new tires (still had nubs, installed the week prior). I asked why they rotated brand new tires, to which they replied it was a free service. First question, aren't you guys supposed to be tire experts??? I was then told that I had a small oil leak, and they could do a dye test to locate the leak. I paid the extra to have this done, and scheduled a f/u appt to have the leak checked. I went to my f/u appt 5 days later, scheduled at 8:30 am. They didn't even open the doors for work until 9:00, saw 2 people ahead of me who didn't even have appts. Second question, why bother making appts??? After finally getting my car up, they indicated that I didn't have an oil leak, but possibly a power steering fluid leak. I'm a girl, and not a mechanic, but 3rd question, isn't the color of power steering fluid residue different from the color of oil residue??? The answer is yes, one is red and one is black. Last question, aren't you guys smart enough to do a towel wipe check for color of the leak??? Seems so simple to me. Anyway, I sadly suggest you look to someone else for car service, and possibly even for tire service. Oh, last thing, the entire time I waited for both appointments I witnessed that all they do is up sell to people on the telephone, expressing that the up-sell is a better buy in the end. read more

Was there for an hour and saw 3 shady sales techniques . 1. They put a higher price in the invoice than what they quoted me. 2. Told me I needed an alignment just because I got new tires. THis was not true. 3. Whenever anyone walked in with a coupon, the standard response was "I can charge you more than full price for the tires then take off the coupon amount or we can get you in to a tire that is better and cheaper" Seemed like a scam . I used to go there for my tires for many years . Never again . Too bad . read more

go to big o tires if you want to wait forever and be sexually harassed. i was asked for my number more than once, after politely refusing. i'm not gonna say names because everyone there needs to be in a meeting about sexual harassment. everyone stares at you and you can see them making comments to each other. shop seems very unorganized. employees were arguing very loudly where customers could hear them as well. waiting room was dirty and the parking lot. read more

After reading the reviews I was reluctant to go to them, but my boyfriend insisted, because I needed them rotated and he thought 1 was looking worn. When they took my tires off, they had me come look at them because more than 1 was looking worn...in fact there was steel showing on 2 of them. I have nothing but the highest of compliments to give. I was treated with respect - even as a woman, great customer service and more than happy with my new tires. This is a classic example 2 sides to every story! read more

I have always come to Big-O no matter what state I've lived in, and always felt like I've received quality service and product. Tony is very helpful, and presented me with several options for me to decide. I was able to get 2 cars serviced in the same day, and was very happy with the service on both cars. read more

Went in for an oil change and tire rotation but they forgot to rotate my tires. I was told I needed new tires but still had a reasonable amount of tread left. I was told I needed to change my air filter but had just gotten a new one a few weeks ago. They also left the air filter compartment half open (I'm guessing so they could cover up the fact that the air filter wasn't dirty and it could get dirty faster this way). Would absolutely not recommend this place to anyone, all they want is your money. read more

Tony is the worst. He may play-off like he's on your side, but watch your wallet. He'll find something to up-sell you on. On a warranty issue or problem, he'll try to place the blame on something you did. He is usually rude and short. Judge for yourself. Be aware, he is somewhat bi-polar in his behavior. One day he's your best friend, the next day, he doesn't know you. Go to America's Tire, or Costco. Much better branding, treatment, warranty, etc. Never again, Tony. Never again Big-O. read more
