Cross Island Tire & Wheel

Great experience at Cross Island Tire and Wheel. The service and prices were truly unbeatable! I found this location through Unilocal and went by with 1 flat tire and a nail in another. The gentlemen working were extremely kind and helped me understand the correct steps to take to fix my damages. I got the nail patched and the flat tire replaced with an affordable great used tire. I will most definitely be back again when having tire and wheel issues.

I can honestly say that this place is quite accomadating and welcoming to their customers. Offer great customer service and knowlegable in their craft. I highly recommend their services.

Purchased a used tire from this location for $ 50, it was convenient, quick and easy; however, the tire was truly garbage worn down to the threads in some spots, and a wheel allignment was needed due to their poor and careless method of its reassembly.
Do yourself a favor and either check the used tire they provide you with including your wheel allignment after they apply the new tire to the wheel or go elsewhere.
Perfect example of you get what you paid for, learned my lesson.

Wow this guys were great! They were polite, accommodating and fast. I will highly
recommend them.
They change 4 tires which I had purchased on line. The installation price was very good and
they took care of me right away. You cant go wrong with them. I would go back to them again.

Caught a flat on the way home. Called about ten places that would help me out. This was the only location that was able to order my tire and have it the next day, whereas the others said it take two to three days. I was in and out of the place after 30 minutes. They even removed the corroded caps on my tires with ease after I managed to damage one. Thank you to Steve and his crew.

My son got a flat tire, and was able to change it and put the spare on. I looked up a tire place and found Cross Island Tire& Wheel based on the Unilocal… On the way to the repair shop his spare got a flat!~!!! So he was really vey stressed out when he got to the tire shop and he is only 21! They were so nice to him and completely helped him out and he walked out with both tires fixed for $ 40…The spare had a problem with the rim.
These is a stand up business that doesn’t take advantage. He was out of there in under an hour…

So thanks to never ending amount of potholes in our beloved highways, special thanks goes to BQE, i needed to change my 2 front tires. Immediately, i went to the web to tire
i purchased original equipment tires for my car and i had them shipped to my favorite tire repair shop. I bought them on Sat and they were installed tuesday. Pretty fast and done very efficiently. When i received the call at home, i was notified that my new tires had arrived, took my car in and within 25 minutes, i had my tires removed, rims inspected and my tires installed. The tech, recognized me as just last week i had been ther due to a flat tire and they pointed out that the tire could only be plugged because the nail was at the edge of the wall of the tire, potentially causing a blow out under normal use. While installing my new tires, they also pointed out that my right front rim was slightly bent. This was due to hitting a large pot hole on the BQE after the snow clean up about 2 weeks ago. I remember that day, i thought i had lost my tire completely, so this guy was very good at making sure he inspected my rims before installing the new tires. I was very amazed at the level of technical service and advised provided by the repair person. To the point he even took me to the machine that balances the tire, so that i could witness the damage on the rim under rotation at fast speed. Will definitely recomend this shop for their high level of expertise and the fast service. Just as a note, been going to these guys for about the last 7 years. Installation for both tires was $ 35, cost of my tires $ 288 Shipped to the shop from tire

They know their stuff. I came in needing new tires but didnt know what to buy since I buy Michelins but they were too costly for me. I just needes a decent tire with good performance. They recommended a great value tire for my Mercedes that rated for excellent performance and does well for an all season. Price was reasonable and service was snappy. I was in and out in 30 minutes for 2 tire replacements. They know what the good value tires are and even pointed out the wheel was warped from potholes. While this is a bit of an upsell … it still is good practice because wheels should be inspected for safety issues and I am glad they did!

Because of the troublesome tire and rim I had, I decided to buy new ones. I been to 4 other tire shop in queens but none of them able to fix my tire problem, so I ended up going on to
to order a new tires.
Cross island tire and shop is 10miles away from my location but since they are authorized dealer of tirerack with high rating on Unilocal,and they can get me the rim that tirerack was in back order, so I visit their shop to get my tires fix.
My first impression was shock because those guys sounded like yelling at me when I try to park my car at their lot, but when I got out the car those guys are actually nice and with greetings. The guy helped me to fix my tire actually gave me his opinion to save cost but since I already ordered the parts i just stick with my plan.
Overall experience is that they are more professional than many other tire shop out there, i am not sure about their honesty but I think they charge reasonable price, (bought a rim $ 90+ $ 60 mount and balance)

In and out of here in 30 minutes with a replacement tire. The guy started working on my car the second I arrived. Great family business — highly recommend for any tire or wheel needs if you’re in the area.

This place recommend that I change my transmission fluid along with my oil change, upon leaving the shop after about a mile my car completely blew up, dragging my crippled car back to the shop I was informed that the guy doing my oil change should have never touched my tyranny fluid but since I signed my receipt it was my responsibility. I now need a new transmission THIS PLACE SUCKS

Great customer service and very helpful team.

The best place to get your tires mounted and balanced. Steve the owner is very honorable man, he stood by the quote he gave me a few days ago. Jay the employee who mounted and balanced my tires is the best, I was in and out in under an hour. Jay also gave me advice on how to maintain my tires in the winter. Look no further than Cross Island Tire & Wheel.

As a broke college student that’s in debt trying to save money. I found the prices are very low compared to other places. It’s only $ 40 for one used tire plus they change it for you. It’s an excellent deal because the used tires are in great condition! Plus the service was quick and fantastic. This place will be my go to spot from now on.

As many reviewers have stated, I too as well found Cross Island on google when I noticed I had bubble in one of my tires. After getting there, I quickly told them I want the same tire new. In less then 15 minutes I was on my way out of there with a new tire installed on my vehicle. Their prices were average but the service was top notch. I don’t see any reason to give them less than 5 stars.

5÷28÷2014: I found this place on google and drove all the way because of their positive ratings. Found them to be honest. Work was done quickly. Owner is a nice guy.
Update: 6÷12÷2015 — went there again. Met owners son this time. He is very helpful. Again they are honest. They charged me a reasonable cost for repair of my rim. I recommend this place and will maintain 5 stars from last year.

Just had my rims painted for my Audi S4 at Cross Island. The guys did a fantastic job and the price was fair ($ 125/​wheel). They take pride in their work and paid attention to very small details. Staff was very friendly. I’m a happy customer.

Not sure how I found out about them originally but it was 2004. I put aftermarket wheels and tires on my ’04 Tahoe. I’ve been back for tires when needed and now new wheels/​tires on my ’15 Yukon. They have the knowledge! They have access to all the products! They have a staff that works like a well oiled machine. They have the best prices! These guys are making money because they do it right the first time. This converts to your savings because they don’t have to overprice. The reviewers have done the work for you. Its a no-​brainer! Cross Island Tire & Wheel is the place to go!

Always great service. Cheapest mount & balance costs around. The guys here are all really hard workers. Will always continue to be a customer!

I’ve been going to Cross Island Tire and Wheels to mount and balance new tires on my cars for a few years.
Their mounting/​balance prices are very competitive (actually cheaper) and the service is quick. They also sell new/​used tires as well as new/​used rims.
I would recommend this shop to friends if they bought new tires online and need them mounted/​balanced. BUT would advise them to check that the weights are installed securely on the rims.
If you have alloy or chrome rims, insist that they use the adhesive weights that stick on the rim.
On my last visit, they used the clipped-​on weights that fell off the rims. I had to return and request they use the adhesive weights. I showed them the clipped-​on weights that came off the rims.
A tell-​tale sign that the weights came off the rims is the steering wheel shaking when driving at highway speeds.
This is the reason why they only get three stars.
