This is the BEST tire dealer/installer that I've ever dealt with in the US and especially in…read moreWestern North Carolina. I've gotten about 40 sets of tires over the past 37 (I'm 55) years on 9 different cars. Ryan, the manager is a straight shooter. He will give you the best price, even competing with Tires.com, tire rack etc. My last 3 sets of tires have been with Marion Tire on Railroad Avenue and the rest of my tires from now on out will be done here. While Asheville and Hendersonville are closer to where I live, driving an extra 15 minutes to Marion is well worth for the service that I get from this business. I recommend them without hesitation to anyone who wants to get a great deal and Excellent service on tires. Matt B, Lake Lure NC

All there is to go on is a little sign by the road that says "Free A/C check"... I thought I'd check them out after my new landlord and a new neighbor recommended them highly, since they are 10 minutes from me and my 2005 Prius had an electrical issue that needed to be addressed. They are professional, knowledgable, car hobbiysts (that's always good in my book), they gave me a ride back home from the shop, then came and got me when it was ready!

Dolphin has done some extensive work on my older car over the years, some that was quite expensive…read moreand I've wondered about the quality of their work as the results seem less than spectacular. I don't know much about cars in general and tend to accept what a mechanic tels me. That said, I had some necessary work done by a mechanic at Dolphin automotive the week after hurricane Helene came through. All the other local auto mechanic shops were destroyed or out of service due to lack of electric and water service. I was charged $95 for diagnosis (? I already knew what was wrong with the car) plus $95 for a switch (??) and $95 for labor. My car ran just fine when I drove it into Dolphin's station that day. After the work was done, which by the way, did not involve the engine, the car started missing badly as soon as I drove out. Back at the mechanic, told me a part had been broken and I needed to replace the entire assembly. Denied having broken the part, which I find hard to believe. Why would my car run fine before they worked on it, to not run afterwards? As I stated before, Dolphin mechanics have worked on my car several times and have done an ok job, nothing outstanding. I now suspect they pad their invoices but can't prove anything, just like I can't prove the worker broke my part. However, after this last incident I will no longer patronize the shop and will not recommend them to anyone I know.

The price is very reasonable and after it being recommended by several mechanics as the place to go for an affordable quality alignment, I looked up the address and phone number. When I called around 12:30 pm I was ask if I could be there by 1:00 pm. After arriving, the work and test drives were completed before I even realized it. My steering was so true after leaving, that even if the steering wheel was released the vehicle would still continue in a perfect straight line. I would recommend this business just the same as several mechanics recommended it to me as the place to go for your alignment needs.

They put one on and only a couple hours later the tire blew( more like crumbled ) because it was dry rotted, while he was driving it. Luckily nobody was hurt , but check the comments for the picture, this could have went really really bad on the highway and with an inexperienced child driver. We called and they said they would absolutely not refund us or even give us half back but if they had the right size tire in stock they would give us a replacement but of course turned around and said they don't have that size tire. So basically we are out of luck.
