Discount Tire Store – San Diego, CA

I got two flat tires, and I got them replaced under warranty. What great service!

They replaced one of the bolts on my tire with a larger one that doesn’t match with any of the other ones on my car… I went into the car dealership to fix my car and they were unable to get my tire off because the wrong nut was used to replace my tire. It seems very sketchy and i do not recommend coming here. I’ve also noticed that others have had that problem so I would say spend your money elsewhere

i wanted to keep this short and on point.
i got a flat tire and i came here because alot of my friends tells me about this place. i went to 2 other places before and told me my tire wasnt fixable and i was upset cause that tire is new and i just got it done like 2 weeks ago. i went here and i just told them if they cant fix it. just put a new one. and to my surprised they were able to fix my tire and i did not have to pay anything! this is my to go store now for any car repairs! you guys won my trust! thankyou

Service has been good for many years, until recently my tire caps started missing after I take my car in for rotations. The first time they went missing, my original chrome caps couldn’t be found and ended up being replaced with different ones.
Since then, I’m always checking my caps before I take it in, just to make sure they’re not missing before I get a rotation. This recent service I had, I noticed 2 of the 4 went missing, and all they could say was that it was missing before I came in.
I had to drive out of town that morning, so I didn’t have time to deal with their b.s. Needless to say, my business with them will end when it’s time to change tires.

Came in today for the first time to get my tires replaced since they were worn down and one had a nail in it. The dealership said they didn’t have a patch small enough for it ;(
Plenty of parking and there were a lot of seats in the waiting area. Staff is very friendly too. The person that helped me today was Cody. He’s super nice, professional, and friendly. They replaced my tires in 45 minutes so that was great! I’d highly recommend this location to anyone and I will definitely come back if I have any issues with my tires (:

Friendly, fast, courteous!
I might be tempted to do this more than once every 6 years!

I came in today at the very last minute just before closing. These guys are awesome. They did not turn me away, nor hesitate to work on my truck. Thank you Tommy (assistant manager), Joe (manager) and Peng for the great work and awesome customer service.

A pesky nail found its way into my tire…
The bad news: It was in the sidewall so it wasn’t repairable :‘(
The good news: Discount replaced it at a reasonable cost :-)
The story: I wanted the same model as my existing tires as they have a lot of tread left on them. After calling a number of places I found that Discount was the only store that had one available for delivery. Sean ordered it but we just missed the deadline to get it on that days truck (mainly due to me taking the time to call all the other places). He offered to put my spare on until the new tire arrived, even though the store was quite busy they were able to put it on in a relatively short period of time. They called the next morning letting me know the tire had arrived and scheduled an appointment for installation.
In conclusion: Even though the store is very busy all of the employees are very helpful and pleasant. I totally appreciate the time that Sean initially took helping me figure out what my options were and all of the hard work his coworkers performed in such an efficient manner, especially considering the sale was only for one tire!

Ive been coming here since I moved here in 2008. The service is helpful and polite. What they offer is honest and there is no pressure to purchase what you’re not interested in. They can get pretty busy, but I’ve never had to wait a ridiculously long time for any service. I’d highly recommend this place to anyone :)

I went here friday and had a great experience. That morning I had gone online to make an appointment to come in at 9am. When I got there I was helped immediately and my tires were evaluated. The salesman didn’t try to push anything on me and gave me several choices. Luckily they had the tires I wanted in stock. (you can always call or look online for their inventory.) I bought a whole new set of tires with a price that was comparable to other places. The process of walking in all the way to leaving only took an hour and a half, which is pretty fast in my book.
I think it helps to make an appointment and to come at a non-​peak hour. A couple minutes after I arrived it started to get really busy! So mind what time you try to make it in.
They also have free air checks fyi!

I have to say, I’ve received nothing but great customer service from this Discount Tire location. My tire pressure light kept coming on so I took my car to the Dealership since it’s still under warranty. Dealership tells me I have a nail in the tire… Ok… And… «Unfortunately Ma’am, where the nail is located, we are unable to repair it, however, we can sell you a tire for $ 267 for the same brand. or $ 167 for a cheaper brand». So of course I say «Shiiiittt, for 1 tire.» Needless to say, I had them put some air in it and I was on my merry way. I went over to Discount Tire and showed him a picture of where the nail was located. They fixed it in less than 30 min for FREE 99! They saved me some $$$. I’ve been riding on that tire for a minute now, with zero issues! Thanks Discount Tires!
Note: I drive an Altima. $ 267 for 1 tire. 1 more time. «Shiiiitt»!!!

I have needed a new set of tires for my car for the last few weeks and finally decided to «bite the bullet» and replace them. Since I had also considered doing a «plus one» upgrade to the wheels and tires, the only place that came to mind was Discount Tire. I have been to many of their locations over the years with various cars and they always do a great job. Prior to my visit, I went to the
web site, located the tires and wheels that I wanted, checked to see what store had them in stock, and drove there during my lunch break. I was in and out of there in less than an hour. Special thanks to Sean for his help and great customer service. I look forward to returning!

4 new tires! Lifetime warranty! Costco price match? Sign me up! It was about time to get new tires for my car anyways & I’m not going to risk driving with a bunch of stupid drivers who don’t know how to drive when its sprinkling.
Special thanks to Chris for getting all 4 tires ready. When I called around noon & asked if they had 4 in stock of the one I wanted he said no but he would try his best to have them delivered from another location so kudos to you Chris! High recommend this location

Ouch :-(
Got a flat wheel drive to the near location of discount tire, service was fast.
The crew check the tire and told me there is no need to replace. The surprise was they didn’t charge me. I ask him how is that?
The guy told me: we no charge for that, in the future you refer a friends ;-)
I will. For sure.

I came here with an 8:00 AM appointment on a Thursday, I got there around 7:50 with others outside their cars already waiting for them to open. The appointment was for 2 new tires for my boyfriend’s Civic. He received a discount since a family member works at another location, it was about $ 230 total. I was worried because I did not have much information about the appointment (it was made by my boyfriend’s dad), but the check-​in process was easy and stress-​free. They simply asked for a phone number and last name and got started on the car right away. By 8:25 AM an auto tech pulled up to the front and called out my name with keys in hand. When it came to paying, I was worried because I was afraid they would try to upsell some warranty or extra services to me, especially since I was there by myself, but that was not the case at all. They rang me up for the expected price and I was out of there before 8:30! Nice!
I was always pretty wary of independent service stations but this place has restored some of my faith in them. This location runs very efficiently and smoothly, I would definitely come here again in the future.
Side note: They have a small fridge in the corner of the waiting room with complementary water bottles for customers.

These guys are GREAT! They’re prompt & polite, get u in & out. What else can u ask for? Just the free service of rotations & balancing is worth my loyalty! Ask for Ryan C, he makes every experience memorable.

No one likes going to a tire shop and spending money let’s be real! The time and the wait is just not in my schedule.
Paid $ 50 per new tire for Gradiel which is probably the most cheap and stiffest tires. I only got the front two cause I was late to work. Afterwards fees come out to be another $ 50.
I was told it would take around 45 minutes but I ended up being there for over an hour. So if you are going to come make sure you plan to wait longer.
I usually prefer going to SD tires in clairemont. I don’t like supporting huge franchises and it’s cheaper for better quality.
Adam changed my tires and was very nice and fast with it.

Came in today around 11am (I beat the rush!) to repair a nail in my tire (free of charge). Mike was courteous and professional even when it started getting busy. My estimated wait time was 45 minutes and it was spot on.
Will definitely be back if I need any future tire repairs/​replacements!

I’ve had one bad customer service experience with this branch of Discount Tire, so I am inclined not to use them again.
First, I must say that they provided tires at a good price and mounted them quickly. However, their customer service left me feeling that they were after my money more than my trust.
The first red flag is when they tried to up-​sell me a tire pressure sensor seal kit. They attempted to project a sense of fear that the valve stem was vulnerable and the sensor rubber prone to failure. I know better.
Then, they conducted a brief inspection of the tread separating from a tire and reported that it was caused by a misalignment. When I returned from a shop with documentation showing that it wasn’t out of alignment, they told me that they couldn’t help because they had already disposed of the tire. When I pressed them further, they said they couldn’t help because the mileage on the tire exceeded the warranted amount. They were right, it was; but they didn’t even look until they had exhausted all other ways to get out of a warrantee issue.
Finally, they didn’t clean the sidewalls of my new tires. That’s really no big deal, but the Discount Tire store I’ve used in the past has always done so.
This store provides quality products at a good price and they mount your tires quickly. However, I just don’t trust them.

Have been using Discount Tire for the last 15 years.
Usually, I make an appointment and am in and out in somewhere around an hour.
THIS time, I did not make an appointment… shop did not seem super busy.
The tire is a Michelin LTX P255/​70. Cost for the tire alone is $ 171.00…Online price is higher, so cannot complain about that… the complaint is about the time it took.
I was on a tight schedule, and let the manager know that.
Was told it would be about an hour… turned out to be almost two hours.
\I prefer the Miramar location, but you never know.
This one has restaurants and shops very close by, and the Miramar location is not conveniently located to anything but other auto shops.
Overall, Discount Tire is «ok»…but «just» ok.
