Last weekend I was traveling to Pismo Beach on hwy 1 for the 4th of July. As I was passing by Monterey I got a flat tire. I called just about every tire shop there. The only tire shop that went out of their way to help me and were able to get me the performance tire I needed for my car, that everyone else told me they couldn't get me until the following week, was Calderon Tires. If you are ever in the Monterey area and need tires urgently, I highly recommend you go to Calderon Tires. They are the best in the area! read more

Phil was not only kind he was compassionate and respectful. My friend recommended them to me. I got new tires and out under an hour. Can't express my gratitude for them read more

Calderon Tires - They worked fast and hard. Thank you guys! - Tires Near Me - Monterey, California

I called on a Friday morning to see if they had tires for my truck and I was told they could have them by Monday. It was $280 for two tires including service. Monday I called around noon to see if they had the tires and I was told they ordered the wrong tires by accident and it would be another day. I called Tuesday and was told it would be another day before tires arrived. Wednesday I called and was told they had the tires but were really busy and could I come in Thursday. I dropped it off Thursday and was told to check back late afternoon. So I called around 4 pm and was told they were still waiting on one of the tires and would Friday be ok. I finally got it back Friday afternoon, a week after calling. I didn't need my truck that week so we managed but if someone relied on their vehicle and really needed the work, what would they do? Plus I wax asked for my credit card information during the first call so I was sort of trapped. read more

Fast service with a happy attitude. Something that leaves one feeling that you live in a good community. They even matched the prices of a previous purchase 4 tears ago. Made me feel that Monterey has a home town vib. Personally face to face I did check on Costco for a comparison, but left with big companied do not believe in customer service. Viva small business. read more

I stopped by because one of my tires kept leaking air. The gentleman that helped me was very kind and professional. He was able to put the spare tire and help me get on my way. I am very grateful for their fast service. read more

These guys seriously rock. I was on a camping trip in the Monterey area and got a flat. I rolled in at opening time and they replaced the tire at a VERY reasonable price. I can't recommend Calderon Tires highly enough! read more

Excellent service and great prices! Thank you for getting me in right away and patching my two tires.

Super nice people and great value for the service. I needed a new tire and I was in and out in 20 minutes! First come first serve so no appointments, but they're super attentive and are willing to help out quick. read more

Always quick service. They recommend what you need and will assist in getting the best price. Everyone is very helpful.

Spoke with Phil@Calderon Tires, made me a killer deal for 4 new tires mounted & installed if I could get there by 4:30. Phil was at the desk, had me pull right into the spot where they'd do the work. Team of 4 guys went to work, less than 30 minutes they were done AND put my best old tire on my spare and put it back under the bed for me. Quality, FAST, trustworthy, local, no appt needed, less than I was expecting to pay. FIVE STARS ALL THE WAY read more

Calderon Tires - Tires Near Me - Monterey, California

On Monday after I arrived to work I quickly found out that I had gotten a nail in my tire, so after calling around I decided to go to Calderon tires to get a patch. I didn't make an appointment and they were able to get me in right away. I was in and out within 15 minutes and it only cost me $30 dollars for them to patch my tire. I am so grateful for how painless and easy they made this for me, and on top of that they even guided my car on the way out. 10/10 I can't recommend them enough! Thank you!!!! read more

Always great service and skilled technicians. Twice I have just pulled up to their garage and had tires replaced easily. Highly recommended. read more

Always have the tires I need in a pinch! Quick, good prices. Have gone here multiple times.

Calderon Tires is THE place to go if you need tire service in the Monterey area. Four of us were driving up the Big Sur coast on Sunday and blew out BOTH right side tires when I hit a recently fallen rock on the roadway. AAA came and towed me north to Monterey. I didn't know where to have it towed, except I needed a tire store. Once we had cell service, I searched Yelp for options. My AAA driver saw Calderon and told me he had had good service from their Salinas store before and recommended it. His story plus the good Yelp reviews made my decision a no brainer. We left the car parked in front of Calderon late Sunday night. When I called the next morning, Jose was already on it. By the time I got the keys over to him, he had pulled the wheels off and had discovered a cracked rim in addition to blown tires. As we were just passing through and had custom rims that couldn't be easily gotten that same day (Jose had already searched the web and called the Jag dealer looking for the right one), they did a quick but sound fix to the rim and had new tires on the vehicle by the end of the day. This could have been a real pain in the wallet, but Calderon was exceptionally reasonable, for the tire and the fix. We all were amazed at the low cost and the efficiency of the guys at Calderon. Thank you, Jose! Your service saved our otherwise bad day. BTW, they are open 7 DAYS A WEEK. Who else can claim that!! read more

Calderon Tires - Tires Near Me - Monterey, California

We were on a family road trip down the CA coast and popped a tire on our minivan near Monterey. We were in a fix and desperate to get back on the road without losing much time...would have been an easy time to tack on a few extra "service fees" and we would have had to pay. We swung by Calderon Tires with no appointment, prepared to spend a few hours waiting around for them to squeeze us in. Instead, we were in and out with a new tire in 20 minutes and back on the road. The service was fast and friendly and prices were competitive with big chain stores. Why wait in long lines at Costco or Discount Tire? I highly recommend! read more

So my husband and I were victims to our tires being slashed in our parking lot at work. We rode our bikes down to ask them for help. They didn't hesitate. They knew times were tough and they did their best to help us. Hands down I will always refer anyone to them. There are still good people business to business in America. Hard to find but these guys are one of them. Thank you! read more

Great experience with this tire shop. Day one was fact finding. I was greeted quickly and felt like I was being handled properly. 5 to 10 minutes went by and I started getting anxious and was wondering if they had forgot about me. Well lo and behold the gentleman actually came out of the back with the two tires I was asking for. So all this time I was thinking they forgot about me he was actually digging around in his tire stock looking for the exact tires I was looking for. They offered me a fair price however I was not in a position to purchase at that time because I didn't have enough money. I tried to haggle with them but they wouldn't budge on the price. Now you might think that's a bad thing but actually see that is a good thing that means they're reputable that they're not artificially inflating the prices just so they could lower them. And I actually knew that what they were offering me was a great deal. Day two. One week later. I came back just shy of the amount they're asking for. Hoping that they may be able to help me. To my surprise they remembered who I was and I just told him straight up look up been hit hard by the pandemic and if you could give it to me for this price I would be greatly appreciated. It was only $10 less than what they're asking for. He happily agreed to help me out. Before long I was on my way with two used tires in brand new condition that I felt like I got a really good deal on. Day three: But what really made me want to write this review was a fact that I came back (different day a week later) on a Sunday. a day that they're closed although I didn't know they were closed. I was driving around looking for a shop to help me loosen a bolt on a side project that I've been working on. I pulled up and I saw that they're closed but there was one man working on his own car I think he worked there and he was actually just doing something for his own car on that day. He was nice enough to stop what he was doing and help me loosen the bolt. And I thought that was really nice he could've just said hey we're close come back or I can't do it. This shows the kind of people that they are. they're very nice. they're very accommodating. read more

Great place to patch a tire. Always quick and Jose is so friendly!! I recommend this place to all my friends.

I was truly impressed by the service and care provided by Calderon Tires. I had a flat tire, and didn't intend on driving 3 hours back home on a spare tire. Needless to say, I was desperate and at the mercy of the local tire shops. I called around several shops and the wait time was at least 2 hours. I called Calderon Tires and was told it will take 20 mins. Prior to going there, I stopped by another shop to get a quote but felt it was on the higher end. Upon arriving at Calderon Tires, we were pleasantly greeted by Jose. He helped us right away, provided a quote that happened to be half the cost of the other shop's quote, and told us it will take 10-15 mins! After replacing the tire, he made sure to check on the spare and the other 3 times to see if it needed more air. All with smiles and genuine precaution/concern! I truly recommend this place. Jose was a breath of fresh air, especially after dealing with crazy wait times and rude customer service from the surrounding local tire shops. read more

Great prices awesome service and very fast. Very reliable and friendly Go around here all the time for vehicles

Was referred by Mike's Auto to come to Calderon Tires to get my tires fixed. Walked in and was immediately helped by a gentleman who quickly assessed my tires and had thorough knowledge of tire makeup. I'll definitely be back and would recommend people come here for all their tire needs. read more

I've been here multiple times. Pricing is up front, very reasonable. They work quickly and efficiently to get everyone in and out. Need a used tire? They might have one for you. If not, they have a pretty good selection of new tires. Everyone is nice, works quick, and while you wait you can walk around Dodi's car lot and see some classics. read more

Three reasons to bring your tire business here: 1) Honesty. They are trustworthy folks who won't rip you off. 2) They won't try to "up-sell" you. 3) They won't recommend work you don't need. It may be hard to get them on the phone to make an appointment because there is no receptionist. They keep a low overhead, and it is reflected in their prices. read more

Been living in Monterey for over 10 years, never go anywhere else for tire issues or replacements. Extremely affordable and great service. Only downside is the location, it can be hard to get to or find unless you know it's there. read more

Best place to get your tires done .I wouldnt go anywere else..fast efficient and cheap.

Omar is the absolute best! So nice and polite, got everything I needed done quickly and did a quality job! Thanks so much Omar, I'll be coming back for my tire rotation and anything else I need here while in Monterey! read more

Jose was helpful over the phone and quoted me for a battery change right away. When I went in both Jose and Miguel helped me. Miguel replaced my battery at a super reasonable price and shared some more knowledge of what else Calderon's had to offer. Super helpful and knowledgeable staff. Definitely coming back for future car issues they are able to help with. A thousand times yes I would recommend this place. read more

I bought a set of tires for my car 2 years ago. This morning, when I took off the hubcaps to inflate the tires, I noticed a balancing weight had come loose. I took the car to Calderon, and even though it was the middle of the day and they were extremely busy, they balanced the tire and I was back on the road in 15 minutes. They were very pleasant and cheerful. No charge. I will never buy tires anywhere else. On top of the great service, they have very competitive prices. It's a no-brainer. read more

excellent service- speedy and economical this is my new goto tire shop. Jose for me in for a basic tire breakdown asj waited despite being busy. read more

Fair price, great service and fast. What also can you ask for?

What a great tire place !!! Very nice and checked all my tires for me !! Removed a nail and made sure all my tires were good . I will definitely be back here when I need any new tires !! Thank you for making sure my car was safe to drive ! read more

This place is great! I was planning on going here because I didn't get off work until 5pm and they were the only shop that I called who stayed open until 6pm. My tire had blown that morning. The roadside assistance guys who put my spare on even recommend going here to get a new tire. My old tire was unrepairable because the hole was completely shredded. Anyway, I pulled right up into the front of their office and one man immediately helped me out. He took a look at the flat tire and showed me the hole. I was terrified I was going to have to pay a couple hundred for a new tire so I asked him about a used one. He gave me a great solid tire for $45... and that was it! He changed my tire out and put my spare back under my car. All of this took about 10 minutes (if that). I didn't have to wait. It was so simple and easy. The service was great. The man was super friendly and helpful. (I'm sorry I never caught your name!) I will recommend this place to anyone! read more

I was recommended to Calderon Tires from another tire company because they didn't have the tire size I needed. I love my tire place so I trusted thier recommendation. I called Calderon Tires and that afternoon they replaced my worn down tire for $50 (which I didn't think was bad at all)... The service was fast, I was in and out in 15/ 20 mins. Well.. After noticing the tire looking a little flat a few times I pumped air into it and no more than TWO WEEKS later I was running late for work and I get out to my car and BAM I had a completely flat tire. I called Calderon Tires and the person I had spoke to remembered me from when I had my tire replaced and told me I could bring the tire in and if its a faulty tire they would replace it for NO CHARGE (which made me happy) but if it was a nail or anything else I would I have to pay for a new one (which I totally understand). So the next day I had my car towed to Calderon Tires which cost $70. They replaced my tire and when I went to pick it up the person who checked me out (whom I did not recognize from my pervious visit) told me THE TIRE WAS BAD so I assumed I didn't have to pay for the replacment well... I was charged another $65!!!!!!!!!!! so all in all $50 tire, cab to school for my daughter and work for me $22, tow $70 and replacement tire $65 = TOTAL $207 I could have bought a new tire and saved myself all the hassle. I just think with situations like this Calderon Tires should have replaced my tire at no charge because of the hassle that could have been prevented if they examined the tire before they placed it on my car.. What if I was on the highway and the tire popped? read more

It cost me $20 bucks to patch up my tire, which honestly wasn't expensive and it saved me from replacing my tire. I was greeted immediately when I arrived and within 15 mins my car was being repaired. They were very friendly and I would def recommend them to anyone who needed their tire patched up! read more

Amazing staff!! I went by yesterday after work and traffic was really bad in Monterey as per usual. And, I probably had about a half an hour until they closed, and they were still so nice and so accommodating! And they made sure I had two brand new front tires that I needed very badly! Thanks Calderon Tires! read more

Had a flat Chuck at Del Monte Auto suggest next door was towed in and out less than 1/2 hour. Great service. read more

I am from Orange County and in need of new tires to go back home. The tire shop was busy, but Jose attended my partner and I very well. Questions were answered and he was also very helpful. Definitely recommend. read more

Went to one with a friend in Salinas, was incredibly impressed with quality of service and price. Just fixed car at Del Monte outpost and they basically saved my car. Would 10/10 recommend. read more

Be careful when you buy tires at these place they don't balance all four tires only the ones on the front and when you do the rotation somewhere else you have to pay to get them balance and not even the two tires they did are done right. Service is very fast but at a cost in the near future. read more

I got tires here before. Nice people, nice service. They were able to get my tire I need the next day. That was great. They explained everything n the price was great way cheaper then the dealership read more
