Andy’s Tires

Had a slow leak and thought I needed a new tire and the guys at Andy’s checked it while I had lunch across the street at Wendys. They found that my valve stem needed to be replaced and that saved me around $ 100. They are my go to tire guys from now on. There is no substitute for honesty and fair prices.

Went to get my 4 new rims installed. They were not busy early on a Saturday. Three guys did it quick and fast. They have all the right tools and balanced my low profile tires smoothly. They speak Spanish also. Bought me new sets of lug nuts and special anti theft key for my rims all for a reasonable price. Went to car x on central first but they guy pretty much lied to me said his machine was broken. All lies because they didn’t want to bother with it since I wasn’t buying any of they tires. So I went here passed by it all the time gave it a shot. Excellent service.

I live in Uptown, but I work near Andy’s Tires. They are great for affordable and honest tire service. I’ve gone there expecting to pay more than I ended up spending, a few times, over the years. They are fast and affordable.

Great Service!!!
I live a block away from Andy’s tires. When I received a flat I drove my car to their shop in their back of the store. I was immediately greeted with a smile and great customer service. They gave me a great deal on used tires. I was charged $ 110 for two Used tires that were in excellent shape plus they also fixed another one of my tires because it had a screw in it for only $ 10. $ 110 for all that wonderful service. I left saving money in my pocket and a satisfied customer. Thank you guys! I found my new place for tires! :)

I just had my tires replaced. Going in I thought I was going to need to get them all replaced, and they assured me I only needed two. Very quick and generous service. THey did a great job.

Outstanding value and some nice guys. Did the job quick and paid about ¹⁄₃ what I would at Firestone. Tire was in great shape. Makes me really glad that there are still independent used tire places out there. The only problem is that it took a little looking before I found where to pull my car in. It’s in the back off the side parking lot — or the alley.

I Unilocaled this place when I found myself in the neighborhood with a flat tire. Everyone was so nice and helpful. It was really fast and reasonable. Will make a trip back whenever I need new tires. I was not taken advantage of which is huge in my mind. Customer service was amazing!!!

Quick service! Great place to get a quick tire fix

Pros:
— VERY fast service
— reasonably priced ($ 30 was to install 4 winter wheels)
Cons:
— didn’t like the service and the place
That is a tire shop owned by Polish guys.
I went there as I had to install a set of winter wheels ASAP.
The shop has only one entrance and when your car is done you gonna have to make a U-​turn while pulling back to get out. Not very convenient eh? The guys wasn’t trying to help much with getting out the four wheels out of my car. While I was taking out two, they watched me closely and finally made their mind to help me with the other two. I put in all the four summer wheels back in the car myself, no help was offered. That’s ok, I’m used to that.
The summer wheels that I was going to put in my car were covered in snow and mud
so I had to clean them up. So I asked if they could help me to hose them down.
The girl manager kinda like hanged for a second… I mean when you request something out of ordinary, most people just can’t understand what the f you want…
All right, I had to wipe the wheels with the towels I brought (speaking of foreseeing the situation) and they gave me plastic bags for wheels. Wow, that’s not too bad!
All in all it’s an OK place but I’m not coming back as long as I have a choice.

Good for: cheap tire fixes like fixing tire leaks or swapping in a used tire when you don’t want to pay full price.
Bad for: anyone who needs more than that, like installing new tire sensors. I had a poor experience here where a faulty TPMS sensor was installed on my car by Andy’s and after a well regarded Toyota dealer confirmed this for me, when I returned to Andy’s to return the sensor, they flat out denied they had installed that particular sensor and refused a refund or any fault.
So much for standing behind your work.

Entrance to the garage is behind the parking lot. Went in for a tire patch ($ 15). Service was given promptly despite them servicing a few other cars. In and out in 5 minutes. Staff is friendly.

$ 50 for a used, factory issued tire… ARE YOU FREAKING PULLING MY LEG?!
I checked that tire out for a good two minutes. Abnormal tread… multiple patches… bubbles…
None of the above. I am pleasantly shocked.

Guys are friendly and very fast. In and out in 5 min for a screw in my right drivers side tire.

If I could give a sixth star to anyone on this site its you guys. Andys saved my a## yet again I had 20lbs of pressure in the back left tire and it wasnt taking air. So hands shaking I got down there from skokie just in time for them to cut out my old valve stem and charge me 15 bucks and the balanced my tires… anyone else wouldve tried to push a new tire on me thanks again guys Ill keep handing your # out faithfully

Cheap. Easy. Negotiable. Used tire for $ 30 installed. Rotated for $ 10. Tried to get him to come down further on the tire but he wouldn’t go. Very fast service. I’ll be back.

So, I really would have given them a 5 bc they do work fast BUT one of the patrons or employees there were so rude and needed a quick lesson in etiquette 101. I’m sure, whatever country this guy was from, was taught, «if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all». Stick to the service at hand… change the tire, get paid and keep it moving. Your personal opinion about another persons appearance is NOT what you get paid to do. A lot can be said about you as well Mr. I Wear My Sunglasses Indoors.

Found one of my front tires flat after work one day. Never had to deal with one and found this amazingly well reviewed place for any car-​related business. Was a little skeptical at first, but some things you should know:
They are open from 9 am to 6 pm most days — couldn’t find this information anywhere online so putting it here.
Everything said about this place is spot on. Don’t expect much conversation or explanation, just all business. Rolled in, took out tire and within 5 min the whole was found. They do the patch right there in front of you without another word, fill you up and that was it. Make sure to ask them to fill up all your tires. Cost $ 15 and i tipped a little for the quick service. You’ll walk away feeling a little unsettled if you don’t have a lot of experience with car shops/​maintenance (like me), but its been a couple weeks and the wheel is just fine. After talking with a few folks about what I saw, pretty much confirmed that everything they did was standard and expected, minus the BS talk and trying to sell you extra stuff.

$ 15 and 5 mins to pull and patch a screw.
Simple as that. Nice work.

I’ve used Andy’s Tires services a few times but the last couple visits were terrible.
I got a flat tire and went there to get it either fixed or replaced. Turned out fixing is not an option and I bough an used one. I’ve noticed a little bubble on the tier after they mounted it on the car. I’ve told them that there is something wrong with but because of laziness to do it all over they assured me it’s OK. Couple weeks later that same tire blew out. I went to ask for replacement but they told me I have to pay again. The women in the office very nice on the first look started yelling at me.
Cheap service and terrible customer service. I recommend to stay away from this place!

I’m not exactly sure what just happened to me.
I know earlier today I had a flat tire. After putting on the spare donut, I used Unilocal to find a local, well reviewed business to get it repaired. I’m pretty sure I drove down Belmont just west of Pulaski… from there it’s all a blur.
Here’s what I can piece together.
I know there was some shouting in Polish. I remember a few pleasant questions about my car from a nice woman. I’m certain there was the continuous sound of a pneumatic lug nut wrench. I handed my credit card to someone and then all of the sudden I’m back driving east on Belmont?
Based on the receipt I found on the seat next to me it appears that I got a pretty good deal… a new tire, mounted and balanced, for a hundred bucks out the door. I couldn’t have been in that building for more than five minutes. Frankly now I wish I hadn’t wasted $ 0.75 on a newspaper having expected to be reading sports and doing a crossword puzzle for much of the afternoon.
Unilocal once again has directed me to a great business that I wouldn’t have otherwise found. The time and money I saved this afternoon is exactly why it’s important for all of us to keep reviewing and you lurkers to start.
On a serious note, be careful backing your car out of this awesome but tiny shop. I almost clipped the wall as I left.
