Back in September my car broke down 1500 miles away from home. We took a chance on a random towing company and got incredibly lucky. These guys were so great and made a stressful situation a better experience. They were fast, helpful, and gave good conversation while waiting for my car to be fixed. We would not have made it back home without United Tire. Would recommend again and again. Thanks Dave & team!

Fast shipping, and decent customer service but they go against what the manufacturer says about fixing run-flat tires, don't do it. They should let you know if the tire is repaired before buying it. They do have a "blanket" statement about the possibility of a tire being repaired but it doesn't say they go against the manufacturer's recommendation. THE PRICE IS NOT WORTH THE RISK.

United Tire has excellent reviews on Google, surprised to see only one review here.Anyway, I had just bought a new(er) car from a place I didn't quite trust but I was in a tight pinch. Two weeks after buying my car, the alternator went. I had just enough battery life to get me home from work. The car was seconds from dying as I backed it into my parking spot at home.I called a place nearby, they quoted me $479 for the repair, which did not include a tow. He said they don't do towing. So I called a few places and found a business nearby, the guy told me the tow would be $100-120. Making the total for tow and repair $579-599. He asked me where to tow it and I told him. He said his father owned a repair shop nearby and could probably do the repair that day. I was initially hesitant, but ultimately agreed, as small, family owned shops tend to be cheaper than the big boys.The drawback was they can be slower. In this case, that was true. They towed my new(er) car at about 8am on a Friday morning and I was told it would be fixed that day. It wasn't. I called shortly after they opened Saturday morning and they hadn't begun the repair...but he assured me the car would be ready before the end of the day. I called back right around noon and he said it was ready, to come pick it up anytime.Great news!I got a ride to the shop and they were pretty busy with what seemed to be happy customers. I had to wait like 20 minutes, no big deal.They finally gave me my total for the repair AND the tow. $420 out the door.Wow! Okay!One thing auto repair guys are used to is people grunting, grumbling, and groaning over the cost of repairs. When a customer smiles with glee and gladly forks over $420, it makes them happy. I told them they saved my neck and I could now get to work on Monday. They also saved me about $160-180.To top it off, I told them my car was still under 30 day warranty from the place where I bought it. I could have gotten the repair done FOR FREE but I opted to pay $420 (or a possible $599) instead. Why? Trust. You can't put a price on trust.The car has been running great ever since. Next time I need a repair, these guys will be at the top of my list.
