I bought some wheels from an online reseller, figuring I'd buy the tires in-person and help out a local business. HOD was my second establishment; initially I'd gone to NTB and ordered tires through them but when I got there, they told me that they couldn't get the tires onto the wheels because the lip wasn't smooth. The wheels I bought had extensions of the arms that ended just past the wheel lip and it gave their tire install machine a problem. The receptionist suggested I go to House of Dubs since, as she put it, they deal almost entirely with aftermarket wheels and if anyone could do it, they could. I called HOD while waiting for NTB to get my car off the lift so I could leave. Trey picked up on the second ring; when I explained the situation to him he assured me they could handle whatever the issue was, quoted me a price on the tires and size I wanted so I ordered the tires through him and put a deposit on them over the phone, with an appointment for the following day to do the install. HOD is nestled in a small business park dedicated to auto service businesses - there's a body repair shop, an Enterprise Rental and HOD. I showed up a few minutes before my 10am appointment and did a quick walkaround just to see what was here. I was surprised - I used to live in Laurel in the early 2000s but I'd never been in this area; situated in a niche just below the Contee Rd bridge that spans the Rt 197 and Rt 1 interchanges. It's one of those spots that you only know about if you're familiar with the area. I've been driving past them for years and only noticed them a couple years ago, though they have been in the area for the last 20 years or so. Anyway, I walked in right at 10am and Trey came out of the garage; he remembered my name even though we'd only spoken the one time and assured me again that they'd take care of me. I had a walk around the sales floor - they've got rims in all sizes and price ranges, from cast to hybrid to forged wheels. The prices are a bit higher (in some cases a lot higher) than what you may find online but its one thing to look at pictures on the internet and seeing the products up close. Some that I'd seen online looked better in person, some looked worse - but that's the internet for you, right? They also do window tinting, stereo systems and whole car (or partial) wraps. I actually got to see one of their wrap jobs up close, it was a 4-dr Wrangler w/a copper or bronze wrap and matching wheels, it was real slick looking, but I could see areas where the wrap was starting to crack and loosen. I'd flirted with the idea of getting my car done but decided I'm fine with the color of the car and opted for black accents to make it pop. I might come back and get a sub and amp installed for a little more boom in the bass. They had all the big names. One thing at a time, though. As I waited, Trey came back in to verify the tire size I wanted (a lot of their clientele go for the super low profile appearance and I'd ordered tires that were a bit taller); after a bit, he came back and informed me that I might want to include hub centric rings - when you buy aftermarket wheels, a lot of them are not drilled for hub-specific sizes. The folks I bought the wheels from did not mention that, but without those rings installed, I would likely experience at least some vibrations because the hubs and the wheels wouldn't be a perfect match, so the rings were necessary. I was just glad they had them! They also had a set of locking lugs - it would be terrible to have gotten these pricey wheels only to have them stolen because I didn't have locking lugs on them, so they saved me a headache! All in all, my experience was highly positive. Yes, the tires were more expensive than what I could've gotten from an online retailer, but having a person that I could ask questions of and get answers to in person was a bonus and at no point did I feel uncomfortable or taken advantage of. When my wife's ready for a wheel upgrade on her SUV, I'll be taking it here. It turns out they forgot to give back the original wheel locks; Trey called and told me to come get them at my leisure, he'd have them up front for me. I know there are a number of negative reviews but my experience was a positive one and the customer service provided by Trey was both knowledgeable and professional. The guys in the back know what they're doing because I tested the car for anything that I wasn't experiencing when I brought it in, but it rolled smooth and true. I'm quite satisfied. I should mention, the experience itself was relatively quick - I was out the door at 11:52am, less than two hours after I walked in!

NEVER NEVER NEVER take your vehicle to House Of Dubs in Laurel, MD! They try to charge top dollar for subpar work. There is NO quality control whatsoever! They had my Fiancé's Jeep in their shop for 2 and a half months (and mind you it is still not fully complete) the job was only supposed to take one month and he was quoted one price and given an invoice for double, when it was time to pick it up. My fiancé had a DS18 speaker system installed and now there is really bad buzzing and feedback in the speakers that wasn't there before (clearly a grounding issue, that should have been caught by the installer). The back door subwoofer has NO SOUND, only lights up.  He also had air horns installed that work, but now the steering wheel horn doesn't work, the Jeep key fob is not recognizing the doors to unlock (all you are supposed to do is stand next to the door with the fob and the doors are supposed to unlock), they never gave instructions on how to change the colors on the lights of the DS18 soundbar and the other speakers installed (but since I also have a DS18 soundbar, I sent him the app to download), they "claim" that one of the lights were defective, so one of the speaker lights in the soundbar doesn't come on(photo attached), when in fact, we stopped by randomly one day to check on it, the installer showed us that the lights in the soundbar were only lighting up in one color because he may have crossed a wire to another location but he "supposedly" redid ALL of the wires(also, when we stopped by ALL of the speaker lights were lit). if it was defective, why not say that when you found out? And protocol is for the installer or the owner of the shop, to call the company and let them know that they are installing a system that seems to be defective, so that they can troubleshoot with the company and perhaps have a replacement part sent out. the installer may have been the best in the business, but he had NO familiarity with DS18, and instead of just saying that, they did horrible work, acted like they knew what they were doing and overcharged to make matters worse. They didn't take caution when doing the work, they scratched up parts of his jeep and used electric tape and zip ties to hold together wires instead of the plastic that professionals use to wrap wires and such (photo attached). Why give a vehicle back charging crazy prices and the work is half done or not done correctly? The installers didn't put things back where they were when the vehicle was dropped off. The kicker in this whole scenario is: my fiancé and the owner have known each other for over 15 years!!! He used to bring ALL of his vehicles there to get work done and never had an issue and always referred people to this establishment, you would think he would take care of his longtime friend (of course nothing is free and there is no issue paying for top-of-the-line work when top of the line work is being done and this was just not the case. I was JUST about to take MY jeep to get work done there until I saw how they handled his Jeep. The owner kept saying that all of the guys working on the jeep were frustrated and had to keep taking it apart and putting it back together... ISN'T THAT YOUR JOB? Take it apart and put it together until the job is done correctly for your customer and for the prices you are charging? The owner also stated that working on his Jeep was a bunch of bs, and that he is NEVER doing this system again in a Jeep(when all he had to say was that he had no experience with DS18)...  $16,000 for a speaker system install, air horns, front and back bumper kit, two subwoofers, a winch, rigid pod lights (2), and double band wheel lights is absurd especially when my fiancé ordered all the parts and bought them to the shop and all they had to do was install, with the exception of the rigid pods, winch and wheel lights which in total may have come to an extra $2500 MAX!

I brought in my Acura 2019 MDX for some custom work. They did a great job! Dipped the rims black, wrapped the crome on the windows, the Grill and the bumper in black and also tinted the windows. My suv is definitely a head turner now! Thanks House of Dubs!

Afterwards, I contacted Hot Tint in May 2022. They responded to me that day and told me to stop by the shop. I made an appointment for later that week. When I arrived, I asked them to install the unit and a backup camera. I can't recall how much time it took but it was done in a reasonable amount of time and I'm happy with their service. I called a few other shops around this time. A couple had other projects and couldn't get to me for a few months. A couple of others didn't want to touch the van because of its age, manufactured in 1989. Hot Tint was straight-forward. They said let them see what I have and they'll let me know if they could use what I had or needed something else. I appreciate that approach. I did have a couple of problems but they were responsive. While driving home, my radio rebooted twice. The cable came loose so they told me to return to the shop so that they could fix it. The second is my clock resets to 12:00 every time the vehicle is restarted. They told me to bring it by so that they can fix it but I haven't. I'm rarely on the screen to see the time and just had other priorities. I mention these items to show that they were responsive and willing to troubleshoot the problem. I rate them high also because there are many mechanics and technicians who can work on a classic vehicle but refuse to do so. There are a handful like Hot Tint that jumps right in and do the job. I'm finally ready to add an amp and subwoofer so I will be contacting them again soon.

When I asked them to justify the labor, the salesperson and owner became hostile and asked me to leave the store. A confident shop welcomes questions about its pricing. I took my business elsewhere and saved hundreds. Get every line in writing before you commit here. Aaron and Adam are not to be trusted Edit in response to the owner: My review reflects my own experience: I asked for the labor to be itemized in writing before committing, and the conversation ended there. I'll let it stand and let readers judge for themselves. But look at other low reviews. They all talk about getting ripped off for labor. I've never been asked to leave a store before and rarely have ever reviewed anything Lastly, I was willing to spend $3k yesterday and terrible attitudes mixed with 150% labor costs turned me off. Enough said
