Woke up Friday to a flat. Costco couldn't help due to police activity. Drove down the road to Smith & Son tire. Within 30 minutes they had my spare put on, and ordered 4 new Conti's for my MKZ. Came back at 3 and within another hour had a brand new set of shoes! Looks like I found my new tire shop, even though fleet service is their core business. read more

Highly recommend! Was visiting my daughters and my brake light came on. My daughter called Kody Monday morning, got me right in and my truck was finished before the day ended. My brakes feel soo much better and I feel safer knowing it was done by a reputable company that didn't nickel and dime me! Everyone I talked to was friendly, kept me informed of progress and price. And explained the parts that were put on. It's good to know a place like this is here for a woman of my age when things go wrong. Will definitely come back if I need another service! Thank you Smith & Sons. Sorry I missed saying hi Kody read more

The customer service here is phenomenal. There have been a few times where I was quoted a much higher price, or unnecessary repairs, at other places, and have come here for a second opinion. they're honest and don't take advantage of someone like me who doesn't know a lot about cars. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Highly recommend. read more

These guys were great to work with. We took my son's truck here after he had a front tire blowout and unfortunately sent him over the center divider blowing out the back tire, as well some undercarriage issues. These guys came highly recommended to us from Fruitvale Automotive who is our go to for most things. It was out of their wheelhouse and confidently sent us to Smith &Son Tire. They were quick to get to the truck & down to business. They kept us informed at every step. They knew we were unsure if it was going to be a repair job or if we would be using insurance. In the end, we chose the insurance route and they made it easy for my son to collect everything else that was in the truck and for the appraiser to come out and do her job. She deemed it as a total loss, therefore ending our business with Smith & Son but they definitely have new customers in the future. read more

DO NOT BRING YOUR CAR HERE. ( SMITH & Son) They lie and are not honest. I was told my car would be a 3 hour Job when I dropped off my vehicle . Which should've been $375. They charge $125 per hour for labor. I was charged for 5hrs Which I know for a fact it doesn't take 5 hours to replace 4 motor mounts. I was quoted by another mechanic for $650 With parts included. Coming here ended up costing me $925. I only came here because I trusted they were honest business. I had an appointment to drop off my car Wednesday morning at 9am. They didn't even start working on my car until late Thursday,mechanic called me Thursday before closing and said oh it's going to be around $500-600 . Then asked if I knew the owner, which I replied No! I was charged $625 just for labor. read more

Great people and service. I have used them for all of my tires for off road vehicle, trailers, fifth wheel trailers, trucks and cars.

This a family run business and top notch customer service. Kody the son has stepped up the business and is leading this business into the future. They are more than a tire store but an all around mechanic shop. I found them to be reasonable priced and only provide services that you need. They do not up-sale you for the price of revenue. Give them a shot and support local business. read more

Excellent customer service from Kody Smith. He was very knowledgeable and gave excellent recommendations for tires on my truck. They installed a leveling kit I provided with no push back. My truck looks great and I'll definitely be back next time in need their services. Already have my Father bringing in his motor home for alignment because of the great job they did in my truck. Highly recommend this place. read more

I called all around today for a quote on shocks. I called several businesses several times and could not get a quote or call back. Smith and Sons the other hand was professional and timely. They even stayed open after closing so I could drop off my car. Excellent service. read more

I deleted two reviews to start over, first off, just understand I have been loyal to Randy since he was over there off Calloway back behind the school and the park. Kody was still in high school then, so we go back a long time. I consider Randy and Kody my friends along with Marty and some others who work here. There is much good about this local family owned business. They have always been able to get me a mobile tire service truck within an hour for fixing flats on my forklifts, tractor, my water truck, whatever has tire problems. They also have sold and installed tires for four 1/2 ton domestic trucks I have had, I usually drive these trucks 160,000 to 175,000 miles so that has been a lot of tires. Had a Ford that went through alignments and brakes, they kept it dialed in for about 4 to 5 years. Once when the installation was going somewhat slow, Randy tossed me the keys to his heavily modified personal truck and told me to go take care of my business. You will not get that at Big Brand or Big O. Kody has been very helpful down thru the years as has been Marty. Now for the bad- sometimes the counter service is lacking. Usually this is a communications issue. Every now and again it takes a while to have flat tires fixed. I would think this would be a bit over four stars. I will round up due to such a long term relationship most of which has been five stars. read more

Great customer Great prices Great people. Always enjoy dealing with Kody and the crew at the shop.

Great customer service. Very fair price. We got there30 minuets before they close and they were so nice to us.

Back in March, I had a problem with my rear shocks. As someone who admittedly is not knowledgeable about cars, I went to the tire shop I bought my tires from (which was only 2 years ago) to check what the problem was as apparently my tires are cupping. The quote I got for replacement of my shocks - more than a thousand!! I told them no thank you. My best friend said take my car to Smith & Son - honest and reliable and will not jack someone up for money. I took my car there the next day, quoted me for $250 which is a far cry from the $1K+ I previously got. They replaced my shocks within few hours and I'm a dedicated customer since then. Thank you Smith & Son for your honest and reliable customer service!!!! read more

I went to get an Alignment and they could not fix the alignment on my vehicle. They drove my truck for two(2) hours on the Free way and used my mileage. This Smith & Son Tire company is a Rip Off. read more

This is the second time Smith and Son has come to our rescue, and they are great. We had a tire shred on our horse trailer while towing and they came out to our rescue and did an excellent job, and then last night my granddaughter had a bolt in her front tire while hooked up to the gooseneck. I called after hours and they set me up for first thing in the morning and our tech was prompt very courteous and was very helpful. He repaired the tire and we decided to put on another tire and keep the other for a spare. Chris in the office set everything up for us and our tech was back in no time with the new tire and we were ready to go. Just wanted them to know how much they are appreciated for the promptness and good work and caring for our safety. Definitely my favorite tire shop!!! read more

They called me Monday morning new tire was ready and mounted on my rim. Found a nail in another tire repaired it I was out the door in 30 minutes ! read more

We had a blown out trailer tire while driving over the Grapevine, thankfully we had a spare. We called Smith and Son to find a specific replacement brand (Hercules) as we were headed that direction for a weekend camping trip. They had the tire and in stock and said they could fix it that same day. Once we arrived, they changed the tire quickly and the customer service was great. Thank you! read more
