Honest crew who is knowledgeable and super fast!!! We were on our way home to SF from San Simeon when the car started sounding funny. Then the tire pressure warning came on. We pulled over to a gas station in the edge of King City to try and put air back in the tire. As the tire filled back up, we could hear air hissing out. The 7-11 lady was nice enough to call these guys for us. We drove the 2 miles over. When they took the tire out to inspect, we could see that it was slashed on two spots. We must've driven over a piece of scrap metal or something! Within 15 mins, they had replaced and rebalanced all 4 tires. And we were back on the road again! Considering we were in a pinch, I was wholly expected to get fleeced. These guys were honest and charged us what Costco would've charged us for new tires and installations. Highly recommend these guys if you are in the area!! read more

Never coming here again. Took our Lexus in for tires and all the sensors weren't working when we got it back. I went to tell him about it and he said he didn't know and that I should take it in to Lexus to get fixed on my dime. read more

Just put new tires on my wife's car. before we were out the car and into our other vehicle these guys were on it already changing the tires and getting it done I'm very impressed at how quick the install balance and alignment process went thank you very much I will be sure to be back. read more

Just after this past Thanksgiving I was returning home to Santa Cruz from Santa Barbara on 101. Some highway road debris completely cut through my rear tire. Fortunately it was a run flat so we were able to continue driving at a reduced speed. I was 20 miles south of King City. I called Tire King who said they would try to get me going again. They had the same size tire which they mounted in less that half an hour. And they charged a very reasonable price for the new tire and the mount/dismount and balance. I also found out they have trucks for on site road service had I not been able to drive in. Thank you Tire King for getting us back on the road again so quickly. And for the very professional work and very fair prices. read more

We ran over what appeared to be one of the tacks from a tack strip (chasing a bad guy). It quickly took all of the air out of our tire and we didn't see a gas station so I pulled over at the exit when two SUPER nice CHP officers stopped and guided us to Tire King (they will get the next review...can you review CHP officers?). Jose, the owner was trying to do everything he possibly could to help (we have a $500 tire who no one carries in stock) He had to leave quickly but he left us in the capable hands of one of the workers (wish I could remember his name because he was also nice and helpful). We ended up having our space holder tire put on but not before we have a pleasant conversation with Jose, who had come back. What an ethical, trustworthy guy...and friendly to boot. They all made an unpleasant situation unforgettable. Did I mention the CHP office called us at Tire King and asked us if their tack strip caused our flat. They are now reimbursing us for the tire. I hope they got the bad guy! CHP and Tire King rocks! P.S. The office person who took the CHP's call was awesome as well! read more

We realized we had a tire leaking on the 101 just south of King City. We were directed to this shop for a quick tire change. They were incredibly helpful, communicative, and quick. Done and out of there in 30 minutes. We were far from home and trying to squeeze in a quick vacation, so their help in this unexpected emergency was incredible! read more

Let me just start off by saying I'm black, so when I pulled in and got out the car, everybody just looked at me and act like I don't exist. 10 mins later I attempted to change the tire my self and my car fell. I asked all the employees do anybody work here and how do I get help, one of them point to a office with no signage. I walked in the office only to see the own on the phone staring at me through a tinted window, then he shut it.I looked in disbelief and walked out, not even a minute later a Caucasian couple walked in and was greeted with friendly service. I walked back up to the owner and asked him do you not want me here I need help, he then stated that they were too busy to help. Pictures reflect how busy the shop is with about 5 workers.I'll never come here again. Oh yea and as I fixed the problem they continued to stare with slight snickers on there faces. read more

My tire light sensor came on and went to 3 different tire places to have my tires checked just so they can say they had no time! Came here and they were on it. Friendly sir told me not to worry and he would get it fixed for me. Will definitely be giving him business read more

We had a blown tire due to a large pothole, and found Tire King in King City. They were absolutely professional and efficient. They explained our issues (we had a slightly bent wheel), and sold us a new tire at a very reasonable cost. They balanced and rotated the tires, and told us we were safe to continue our travels, but to get the wheel checked at the dealer when we got home. They moved the damaged wheel to the back to prevent vibrations. We were so pleased we found them and would recommend them to anyone needing auto and tire service. Thanks, Jose and Tire King! read more

So grateful for Jose and the team at Tire King! We are on a family road trip and discovered three nails in our tires. Luckily, we discovered Tire King was only 3 minutes up the road. Jose was kind and attentive and quickly assessed the damage. We were out in less than 45 minutes and for less than the initial estimate too! Jose and his team are honest and quick and do great work. We highly recommend them! read more

Took care of my trailer tires in record time. I asked for tires and they made sure to have them in stock the very next day. They saved me! Took only 15 minutes total! Thanks guys! read more

Cane in for a tire rotation/balance/alignment, they jumped right on it had it in and out in about an hour.

I wish I could play the voice message he left me. It is truly unbelievable. read more

Jose always does a great job. This is a small community business with great customer service.

Please make this your first call for any tire needs in King City! I was stopping to meet somebody in King City when I pulled into a driveway apron to close and tore both passenger tires on the sidewalls. My tires are not a common size and I needed two of them and to get back home two hours away asap, so I was starting to panic quick. Based on reviews, I called Tire King auto express first, and boy was I glad I did!! The owner of the company was on it instantly. He dispatched a wonderful guy (Jose L) who is at my car in a matter of minutes. He actually moved like he was in a hurry! He whipped those tires off and was to the shop and back with new tires aired up and ready to go in 10 minutes and I was on my way! Fortunately, my flat(s) happened next to a burrito shop and an ice cream truck went by, so I can honestly say this was the best flat tire(s) experience I have ever had in my life by far! Inconvenience was never an issue, and even though the tires and service was extremely reasonably priced (less than expected and I didn't even quote them up front) it was worth the money just to restore my faith in American business! In short, the whole experience made me feel like I was an Indy car driver pulling into a pit-stop! Way to go to Tire King and Auto Express, you guys rock! Thank You!! read more

Check engine light turned on driving on the freeway, stopped and checked yelp for a nearby mechanic. Jose picked up the phone on the second ring and was able to fit me in very quickly. His excellent staff checked the code, cleaned the throttle body, and got me back on the road within one hour. The price was fair and there is a nice waiting area with clean restrooms. read more

Amazing service! Multiple visits over a few years from Tires, routine service and today a dead battery. Jose and staff are amazing. They always go out of their way to assist. read more

Had a blow out far from home. My friend lost the key to his wheel locks and this place was still able to replace the tire at a very fair price. AAA premier towing is also highly recommended for getting our vehicle here. read more

In King City for fair and I am writing this on behalf of my mom. Her Chevy Tahoe decided to take a dump on her on her way back to Atascadero, smoke coming from under tire area, brakes acting funny. This was a Friday 05/19/17 and we called around since she could not drive the 60 miles home, told to drop off and they would look at in am. We didn't get it towed there till 6 pm and someone from shop was there and they were able to fix our problem Sat and let up pick it up on Sunday. Don't know who we spoke to on Sunday but he got the job done and happy with it! The problem ended up being the AC compressor which of AC was supposedly just recharged about 6-8 weeks ago at West Coast Towing in Atascadero but obviously they did a faulty job! So grateful they got her truck repaired and we didn't have to tow home or come back Monday! Highly recommend! Thank you so much!!!!! read more

We're a contractor working at San Lorenzo park doing some ADA improvements. One of the yZoung kids rolled the tire off the bead and bent the rim slightly. Wasn't able to re seat the bead, and went with the tube option. Knocked it out fast, before I was done on a work related phone call. read more

Gotta say that Jose and his team went the extra mile for us. We blew a tire on our Rv and Jose sent a truck, replaced two rear tires then stayed open after hours to take care of the other tires with his driver following us back to the shop from the 101. Great service. read more

Jose owns this auto repair and car wash location - I was driving north on a Sunday when my clutch took the "no work on Sunday's" literally and gave out about a mile south of King City. I was towed here and Jose came in and opened the shop to take my car in so it could be looked at first thing Monday morning. The repair went very smooth and was quick to be done considering the hassle to get Scion parts out this way. I definitely appreciated the thorough service and would recommend Jose's shop and crew to anyone in the area who needs any work done. read more

Excellent service at this little King City spot. Jose was friendly, super helpful, honest, and careful with my car. I definitely recommend.

Excellent and prompt! Blew a tire and found this place via Yelp. Was in and out in less than an hour!

We had a blown tire on our 5th wheel and We called Jose after calling 5 different tire places, including AAA. It was last Sunday and he was out of town otherwise he would have came to help. He went out of his way to have someone come out to help us! Even though we didn't use him for his services, we would highly recommend him just by the concern and care that he took to make sure we were safe. Thank you Jose!!! read more

I can't say enough about the customer service & owners Jose & Rosie~ EXCEPTIONAL SERVICE!! Fast, Friendly service. AWESOME JOB- will always have our business :) read more

A great group of guys! Jose is a blessing. They helped us out in an emergency with faulty wiring (on trailer hitch installed by dealership in MO on 2014 Jeep! -Jeep dealer service shop closed) quickly as we had a tight deadline to pick up our u haul trailer. The price was reasonable, the service great, AND Jose even called to let me know I had left a set of keys on his counter! I fully recommend to all! read more

My daughter's car broke down as she was driving back to school. Lucky for her and me that it died 10 minutes from Tire King. Jose took very good care of all of us through a process that ended up taking a few days. Jose was very professional and personable. He was honest, the work his team did was outstanding. We literally went to Tire King because it was so close. If I ever need service and I'm within 100 miles of King City...I'm going to Tire King! read more

Awesome service!!!! The best in town! Came in to get an oil change and he was packed but still made the time to help me right away.

I wish these guys had a shop in San Fran. They are so nice and helpful and have 24 hour service. They'll open the shop for you for 90$!

Hit a pothole during a road trip after sundown and was afraid we'd have to splurge on an expensive hotel. Thankfully, Luis was able to replace our tire within 15 minutes after hours at a reasonable price. Thanks to tire king, we were back on the road and drinking beer at our campsite in no time! read more

We had a tire blow out on our motorhome about 12 miles south of King City. We called and talked to Jose (owner) who immediately jumped to our rescue. In less than an hour he had one of his workers (Jose also) dispatched to our rescue with a new tire. Jose quickly attacked our problem, removed the blown tire (inside dual) and had the new one on in about 40 minutes. We were back on the road in less than three hours. (Took us about an hour to locate Tire King after our emergency service provider couldn't) Throughout the whole process Jose and his team were very professional. We highly recommend Tire King. read more

Driving home from Fresno to Lockwood on 198 and one of the tire on the trailer I was towing blew. Left the trailer on the side of the road, pulled the tire out and drove home. Once I had signal, I searched for a tire repair for tomorrow. At 9:15pm Jose answered. Told him what happened, He gave me two choices, get it fix tonight or tomorrow. Awesome customer Service. Got home with the trailer safe tonight without any missing load. read more

Being stranded 250 miles from home with an issue that might change the entire course of your vacation is a SCARY deal. Luckily, we found Jose and his crew that was kind, generous and attentive to our needs. I now understand why his business is called the Tire King as he and his staff are truly KINGS and gentleman. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!!! I wish he was located in our home town. read more

Awesome!!! We picked up a nail in our tire on our way North on 101. They took us right away, and we were back on the road in 15 minutes!!

Yes!! Expensive and sloppy!! I went in for front brakes, and my vehicle wasn't left the same. I called the next day and the owner or manager of the place blamed me! I saw absolutely no professionalism on the site. That manager or owner cared more about pleasing "the boys" that worked for him than running the place like it ought to..It was a huge disappointment! to be charged SO much and end up with slop! Ladies, don't go there!!! If there are more of you out there with same experience, please post before someone else loses their hard earned dollars there!! read more
