Friday at an adjacent business establishment I experience a dead battery and thus my car would not start. I walked over to Z Tire and Auto Service where the young man behind the desk was extremely helpful in trying to get my car to start. Even offered to give me a ride home. I was not a customer just some guy who walked over in need of a little help. The character of this young man is an indication of the people who work at this business and clearly the skill of the individuals who own/operate/run this business and their ability to recognize & hire high caliber employees. I hope this message gets to the young man who was so helpful.
I put new (to me) rims and tires (brand new) on my car I found on FB. They had been balanced when the tires were mounted (not at Z), but still had a vibration. After 2 tries by the dealer I went to Z Tire. They re-balanced the wheels, found minor bends in a couple of rims, and then rotated the tires to minimize any effects of the bent wheels.It was night and day difference as to how well the car drove! I still have a vibration, but only at around 55mph and it is very minor.Awesome service and really great explanations!
I was I my way up North and made it past Vanwagner Road it was raining hard out. I ended up with a flat tire. While waiting for road service I call Z tire. She was so nice and understanding. I drive to Z tire and they looked at my tire within a few minutes. I needed a new tire. They ordered tires to be delivered that afternoon. I was back on the road by around 4 - 4:30. Great service, you could tell they care about their customers. Very friendly and caring. Thank you Z Tire.
Took a few days to get an appointment but very professional and offered shuttle when job was completed. I should have asked to have wheels aligned but my fault for not doing it. Had it done elsewhere (up north) as my truck would drift a little while towing. All good though. Will definitely use them more! Price was 30% lower than Belle tire and much more personal. Thanks Gary!
I had a tire pop 15 minutes before Z tire closed on Friday and had to leave town for business on Monday. Despite being fully booked they were able to squeeze me in and have both my back tires replaced and rotated by noon on Monday. Ill be taking my vehicles to them for all my needs in the future. Thanks Z-Tire!
Im so impressed and appreciative of the folks at Z tire. I had my car towed there after my tire blew up and I was certain it was beyond repair. Not only did they perform some kind of tire miracle, they managed to get me in and done before the end of the day so I could get home to Grand Rapids. If Im ever in the area and need work on my car theyll be my first choice.
The team at Z Tire is top-notch. I have used them several times in the past year for tire repair, tire mounting, and auto repair. Every time they have gone above and beyond my expectations. Being an automotive enthusiast, I am often asked where I recommend someone take their car for repairs and Z Tire is top of the list for the lakeshore area. They will be honest, forthright, and will explain things in a way that is easy to understand no matter what your automotive knowledge is.
It was very unsatisfactory and extremely disappointing. Had my appointment schedule for Thursday September 23, so I dropped my car off before end of work day the 22nd. Called at 5pm on the 23rd to check progress, none had been made and said they would preform the alignment the morning of the 24th, I said ok, but very inconvenient as I was supposed to be heading out of town that morning. I call to check progress at 4pm on the 24th on still nothing had been done and no communication attempts made to let me know it wouldnt be done. So I was out a car multiple days and alignment was ever completed. I lost a day of work and a day of vacation because you couldnt follow a schedule and still dont have a truck thats aligned.Since posting they have reached out to rectify the situation
We took my husbands vehicle in for annual maintenance and asked Z Tire to look for anything at all that is wrong or going bad on the vehicle. They called us after their diagnostic tests and told us absolutely nothing needed work on the vehicle. A couple weeks later, my husband noticed that the squeal of his breaks that had been there for months already was getting worse and there was a new rattle in the back. We took the vehicle back in and they told us that his breaks, rotors, and muffler all needed to be replaced because they were rotted out. How did they not find this two weeks beforehand?? Im so glad the breaks did not completely go out before we could get the vehicle back in. We dont have time to take our vehicles into the shop all the time. We expect them to be able to diagnose problems and fix them the first time. They apparently fixed all of that but the breaks still squeal. :( I also took my vehicle in around the same time because of an abnormal sound coming from my engine. They apparently diagnosed the problem and fixed it and we paid for the new parts, but the sound is still there. They dont know how to find or fix vehicles well at all.
Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Took very good care of me and my car. I highly recommend Z Tire.
Got an appointment pretty quickly, showed up and they got me in right away and were very quick. Tech was knowledgeable and very accommodating.
Courteous, quick service! I will definitely use Z Tire and Auto Service again!
7 hours late in delivering service! 10 am appointment and not done until minutes before closing 5:30 Friday evening. Will not use again!
I like how people were honest with us and told us things upfront
I brought 2 vehicles in for their “50 point inspection”. The first vehicle they said was completely fine and running perfect. 2 weeks later I had to bring it back in because my breaks were grinding. I ended up spending 1000 bucks on breaks, rotors, and for them to weld my muffler back onto my car. Somehow they missed all these things. However, it doesn’t end there. We also brought my wife’s car in for the same “50 point inspection” because we kept hearing a belt or a chain that needed to be replaced. They called me and proceeded to tell me they thought it might be the timing chain. A couple days later they told me it was the serpentine belt so I had them fix it. 1 day later the car was making the same noise, and a week after that the car stalls out every time we start it. Turns out it WAS the timing chain all along. So not only did they not find and correctly diagnose the issues with BOTH our vehicles, they made us pay for things that didn’t actually need to be replaced. We also are without one of our vehicles AGAIN. I work 30 minutes from home and my wife 45. This makes just living our lives a huge pain in the butt. Ever since the previous owners sold Z tire has gone down the toilet. They don’t pay attention to the vehicles and the 50 point check is completely bogus. Do yourself a favor and go ANYWHERE else.
First time used their service. The staff were great, friendly and kept me updated. Finished before the time that was initially told and I appreciated the review of the work when I picked up the vehicle. Will be using again for sure...
I highly recommend them! They got me taken care of quickly and they did a great job.
I have taken my wifes car in a few times, and they have done a great job! Good customer service and great communication as well!
Z Tire provides an excellent service. The guys are well informed and able to provide quality selection recommendations.Gary and Ethan were quite helpful during my visit regarding my Chevy Truck. I have been here twice in the last two years, in which they hooked me up with a new spring/summer/fall wheel package I love, as well as got me set up with a great set of winter performance tires on my old rims for winter. They offer quality work, in a more than reasonable time frame, and make themselves available to help in anyway possible.The Z Tire crew hasn’t let me down, and they won’t let you down either. 6/5 stars
Very disappointed. Made an appointment more than a week in advance for an oil change. Needed done by noon on the designated day. Called at 11:45, was not done, excuses made, no viable solution offered. I pushed politely and was hung up on by Carrie.
I recently had a bad tire that needed to be repaired. I arrived at the shop at 7:45am before they were open. There was a technician there (Abe) who let me and gave me prompt service. They had my tire repaired a few hours later!Their customer service exceeded my expectations and I was extremely pleased. They have earned my future business.Don
Great recommendation on tires. I waited for tires to be put on my vehicle and the wait was not bad at all.
Been to a tire a few times now and never had a problem. Great people working down there that want to help and even followed up a week later to make sure there were no problems with my vehicle. Highly recommended.
Wonderful staff, quick service, great price.Wont go anywhere else!
GREAT SERVICE! I’m newer to GH and needed to find a new place to have repairs done on our vehicles and couldn’t be happier we found Z Tire. Have worked with a couple different people now on different repairs, and everyone is extremely knowledgeable, honest, and informative. I was actually shocked at how low their pricing is. Very economical and all around great experience.
Have serviced multiple vehicles at Z-Tire over several years. These guys are great and standby their work. Even on the hard stuff.
Always polite and honest. They do excellent work.
Had tires rotated. Went above and beyond with the service. Very timely and professional.
Great deals and Service, highly recommend this business if your looking for new tires.
Great customer service and very high quality workmanship at a reasonable price. Highly recommended.
Z tire has been Truly The best place to have my vehicle serviced for years! many of our family members goes to z tire as well. Their an honest, true and caring staff! Abe and Gary are very awesome to work with! They were so thoughtful to even send flowers to my family during my husband’s passing that is an awesome company! thank you so much Gary, Abe And staff! The best place to have my vehicle serviced! Abe and Gary are very awesome to work with!
Belle tire on Alpine could really learn from these guys.Honest. And have integrity. Thank you for your help. 😊
Z-Tire continues to provide great service along with their personal approach to making sure you’re receiving great service
I have been coming here for years because these guys are truly delightful to work with. I have never had a bad interaction with them, and they have always been nothing short of timely, polite, and fair. Even though I live in Grand Rapids, I refuse to take my car to any other place.
Fast service at a fair price with good follow through and communication.
I didnt realize how bad my vehicle had gotten until you fixed it. It drives smooth and quiet now. I should have brought it to you sooner. I will be using you again whenever necessary.
Great tires and Great service as always
Very knowledgeable staff. I Definitely would recommend this shop if you are new to the area.
We always have a great experience with you guys and your team. Thanks so much.Z Tire is the best.l am always very pleased with the professional job they do.Thanks guys. You are amazing. My wife is thrilled with her car after all you have done to it.
As always, very timely and quality work. Highly recommended!
Quick, reliable service. Great to work with!
Nice and friendly service.Work was completed in a timely manner.
Super friendly and helpful and went above and beyond to get our car back to us as quickly as possible. We brought it in on a Monday to get four replacement tires. Our appointment was set for the following Monday but they said if they had extra time, they would try to get it done early. It was done the following day!!
Gary and his team are outstanding. My issue was very small measured against the work these guys do daily, yet the level of personal care and attention made me feel like I was the most important thing they were working on in the moment. Highly recommend!
Great experience. The Z tires team was helpful and accommodating. Highly recommend
I brought my truck into z tire to get my muffler and some piping replaced. They were capable of doing the work but referred me elsewhere to get the job done at a fraction of the price. At the end of the day Z tire was very honest and did not try to take advantage of the situation.
I have been a customer of Z-Tire for 30 years and have always found them to be professional in their workmanship. I would highly recommend them for auto repair. And their advice can be fully trusted.
Weve gone here for years. Never had a bad experience. The important thing for you to know is this isnt Tom but his wife. It was my car they worked on. If you are a women with little car knowledge, go to Z-Tire. They never make you feel silly when trying to explain your issue and BEST yet you can always trust what they do to be safe and only what they feel needs to be done.
Very happy with the service
Gary and his team are the best! They are knowledgeable, dependable and honest. Customer service is excellent as is their workmanship. Dont hesitate to take your vehicle to them for tires and mechanical work!
I was treated with respect and on time. I recommend z tire to my family and friends. Abe took care of me the first time and Gary the second time I usually ask for Gary as Ive known him for years and he always explains things to me. Abe was helpful too and took good care of me.
You and your business employees have always provided professional, thorough service. Especially in our current situation, the additional concern for safety for every one is even more appropriate and appreciated. Our best wishes and thanks to you. See you this Fall. John and Connie
Friendly, prompt and professional service. Z Tire is a keeper!
Fantastic customer service and quality work they stand behind! The only tire place I have used for all of my cars! Highly recommended!
Very polite and very helpful. I really appreciate the hands in service.
We had a flat tire, they were able to get a new one with a competitive price right away and worked us in same day! Friendly and most helpful!
Great service. Timely repairs and awesome people!
Gary, Abe and Nick were all extremely helpful when we needed it the most. They are a great group at Z Tire and cant thank them enough.
We had the need for a special tire that was not in stock, Gary McCaleb did the research and was able to bring in the right tire for us and in a timely manner. Z-Tire always does a good job for me and has excellent customer service.
Gary and team have been great to work with. Very nice group that stand behind their work.
Like to give a shout out to Z Tire and Gary who I talked with, they got my vehicle in and out on the same day they worked on it. They called me and gave me options to decide on and provided a fantastic service!
Abe, Gary, The Techs and everyone else in between are great and honest people to work on your vehicles. This is a community staple by far and Thank you for always giving me a straight and honest answer, they will always be my #1 go to local repair shop!
Great service! Final bill was less than estimate and was updated regularly on progress of repair. I always go to Z tire because I trust them with all aspects of car repairs.
Always impressed with their expertise and service! I’ll never take my car anywhere else.
Quick, respectful, done right.... Impressed with these guys as a first time customer. Will be back again!
Ztire is reasonably priced, EXTREMELY friendly, & they ALWAYS do a GREAT job! Highly recommend!
As always you folks are great to work with. Excellent work for excellent prices, and always done with smiles and a great attitude.
Great service, great customer care from people you can trust.
A great place for tires and all of your automotive repairs. I have always been taken care of in a reasonable amount of time and they have affordable pricing.
Thank you for working me into your schedule for new snow tires just in time for the winter storm,
Best tire shop anywhere!! They also do some light mechanical work. John and staff are always willing to help, and always know just what tire a customer needs, based on driving patterns and just a few simple questions. I wouldnt go anywhere else!!
Great customer service! Takes great care of their customers!
I am not a car person, this is where I go for pretty much anything. Gary is extremely knowledgeable and spends time to explain to me whats going on, what theyre going to do, and how to save $$$ on fixes in the future without talking down to me or my wife. My wife went here before believing that she needed a new set of tires due to how the car was driving, most places that Ive taken my car before would have just sold her the tires and made some money on that. Ended up that she needed an alignment and a patch and we saved some serious money which we turned around and bought new tires with later down the road. They have a Shape Corp discount program, do great work, and will rotate tires if you buy them here. Use them as much as you can, as long as I can get in!
I have been a customer for over 19 years, John and his team always given outstanding service. Tire prices are competitive, but the great service puts them over the top. I give them 5 stars for their honesty, generosity & good work
Ztire has done a great job taking care of my cars for more than 30 years.
Fixed a jacked up alighnment myauto attempted on my 90s 300zx. Rides like butter now.
Fantastic quality service at reasonable prices.
Great people good service would highly recommend them if you are in the Grand Haven area!
Friendly, polite, knowledgeable staff. Chris, John and Gary are awesome!The did a great repair job reasonably priced on my serpentine belt, tie rods, alignment, oil change and replaced two front tires. Very helpful and will return.
They are awesome people. They helped me with my issues right away and got me back on the road. They are #1 tire people in my book.
Awesome job! Great experience and will return!
The most for you buck and beyond
Fast and honest service. Great to work with!
This place is the definition of First Class service. After calling several places for quotes, the professional warmth received over the phone call had me scheduling with Ztire. When i showed up with my toddler in tow they arranged it so my daughter and I could be comfortable at home while the service was being completed . When I picked up my car later with my husband (now home from work), I saw that not only did I receive excellent over the top service, but my gas tank was full! It was in-between a half and a quarter tank when i originally took it in. Later I realized this was the same tire place that had squeezed me in years before at the end of their day to plug my tire so i could meet the rest of my family on vacation. This company had moved buildings, and Im horrible with names, here i thought it went out of business. Thank goodness its still around and giving amazing hometown hospitality to its customers! Thank you ZTire!
We got a flat on our small luggage trailer driving through Grand Haven. Saw Z tire had good reviews and limped our way there. Super friendly and got us back on the road in no time. Thanks guys!
We service all our work and personal vehicles here a couple years now. They have always been great to work with, great service and fair price. Busy shop, dont expect to just pop in like buying fries at McDonalds-but they will treat you right and they really know their stuff.
Local establishment, always helpful and knowledgeable. Never trying to oversell or suggest non essential fixes or goods. Never a hesitation to take my vehicle to them for service and tires. I couldnt recommend them more.
I absolutely love brining my car here!!! They treat everyone so well and have great customer service, prices and atmosphere!! I moved 45 minutes away, but still come here for my services!
Always great and professional service! We depend them for all our automotive and tire repairs. More than 40 years if fantastic reputation!
First off, I cannot stress enough how good of a job that the folks at Z tire do from customer service to actually doing the work in addition to going the extra mile to assist a customer.I discovered myself that I needed a new tire on my back driver side but was trying to find a used tire until I can afford to get four new tires later on this year. Chris searched high and low and called 5 to 6 other tire shops to find a used tire considering they didnt have my particular size lying around at their shop.Because she did that I ended up just ordering two new tires to get put on and she would definitely work with me to keep me within my budget considering the holidays put a dent on my pocket. I have a father-in-law that takes both his and his wifes car to them and has nothing but great luck with them . Because they are so busy with cars being pulled into their lot I had to schedule my appointment a week and a half out.The reason I bring this up is because they do their very best to get the work done needed in a very reasonable amount of time and many others must trust them considering the work they had lined up . I say that to say this, I also needed a water pump to be replaced on my car that had kicked the bucket after making my appointment to put new tires on my car . With a little flexibility on my part to letting them keep my car an extra day they were able to squeeze in that extra repair and fix my car up right in addition to that not being overcharged.They are very trustworthy people and they have great customer service and they get the work done in a very timely manner and you dont feel like you walk away being robbed. Because of the great and outstanding service provided my wife and I will constantly be bringing our vehicles back to them because its so hard to find a trustworthy mechanic shop that will tell you the truth and what actually is wrong with the car rather than fabricating lies about what isnt wrong just to make an extra buck .Thank you to Chris for going the extra mile and working with me and my wife to keeping our repairs within budget thank you Gary for providing outstanding service for us and squeezing in that extra water pump repair.From tires to major repairs you cannot go wrong was he tired because of the folks who run it. Thanks guys !!!!!!
Z Tire had never failed to come through for me and my family.
Great people, took awesome car of me and my vehicle. They will treat you like family from the moment you walk in. Highly recommend doing business with these guys!
Jon and his crew are the best. They bend over backwards to satisfy the customer.Its no better than this business, anyplace or anywhere this is what small business is all about and needs to be. If you desire a role model, I suggest this business.
Great service. Quick response.
Had my vehicle in for repair and was taken care of fast. Great customer service. Great place to do business locally.
I dont know anyone by name, but these guys have been honest and helpful. Weve had 2 repairs, 2 sets of tires and more. Great customer service!
Don’t take your car anywhere else! Even if they are busy (which they are.... because, unfortunately for me, it’s becoming a well known fact that they are the best around) . If I could rate them six stars, I would! They continue to go above and beyond for me and my beloved old beat up 2006 Honda Pilot. Not only do they fix the problem, they patiently explain to the layman ( with sketches and actual broken parts) what the problem is, and how they fixed it. As a woman with a long history of driving used cars, I can’t tell you how refreshing it is to go to a mechanic that actually helps a person understand why and what they are paying for. I could go on and on, but if you’ve read this far in the review, just know that this lovely group of people will treat your beat up, or brand new car with extreme care, and most importantly, treat you the same way. Thank you again z tire for finally being MY one and only hometown mechanic.
Great place to get tires with great prices. Knowledgeable and friendly staff.
Great service, the guys who work there are very polite.The new building is very nice.
Very satisfied
