REVIEWS OF Direct Tire & Auto Service IN Massachusetts

Mordechai Rynderman

These guys are great. They're professional, friendly, do good work, and have good prices. I really appreciate seeing the video walkthroughs they make showing you exactly what needs to be done on your car, and it's great being able to schedule a loaner car for the day ahead of time for lengthier repairs.

Cameron Sawzin

They are really like a family there- impeccable work and truly kind and friendly staff! Jonathan (JT) went all out to replace my two flat snow tires, deal with the tire insurance company AND get the bent wheels straightened IN 2 HOURS! He is a virtuoso, and such a lovely guy!

Deborah Robinson

This store provides outstanding service at a reasonable price. Barry Steinberg, the founder, and the Service Manager, personally inspected my car, to determine if some service was needed. I always receive this detailed attention, to keep my car running smoothly.

Pamela Swearingen

Winter tires swapped for summer tires. Took about 1 3/4 hours which is what I was told. Great service that tires bought at direct tires get a free service to rotate or change winter to summer tires. I’ll always use direct tires to buy my tires rather than the dealer that gives no breaks in costs.

Bett erBussB

Direct Tire's selection of tires is fair, prices are above national average, and their tire maintenance service is dreadful. Whenever I need to go to get the free tire rotation I’ve had to wait for over an hour for them to even bring the vehicle in. When I made an appointment for a specific time, my car wasn’t brought in until I brought it up after waiting 45min in the lobby only to walk out and see my car parked where I left it. They apologized for that wait, that one time. They don't care about you once you bought your tires from them because they make no money offering free service. Finally, they never honored the road hazard warranty to a nail I got in the sidewall, they said it was either vandalism or neglectful driving, therefore not covered. How is a nail in the tire either of those? Been going to Costco ever since…fantastic!

Elijah Lapson

Loaner cars available they always do good work.

Keith McNeil

Fast, friendly, thorough service.

Martin Grater

Stellar service. I like the thing they do where they text you a link to a video walk-around of your car and what was done and recommendations if any.

Tobi Goldberg

My collector car was treated very carefully. They took off their belts, put a paper floor mat down, covered the fenders and wore gloves. Very impressive.

Andrea Urbano

Love these guys! Always polite and timely. They explain the work needed on my car and do a great job!

Lindsey Gaudet

Direct Tire is great. They got me in and out very quickly during a rush for winter tires. I made my appointment and was only there no longer than 45 minutes. The tires I purchased were pricy, but I got to store my summer tires there for the season for a small fee. They even offered me their loaner car for the short time I was there. They have excellent customer service and keep you informed about your vehicle's progress the entire time. I am very impressed with their level of service. I wish every car maintenance experience was this easy. Thanks Direct Tire!

Steve Chase

My second visit with Direct Tire. I'm in awe of their customer service. The owner has built a company he can be proud of. I will gladly go to them again.

Have been here several times. Staff is courteous and honest

Unlucky Ducky

Thanks for coming in Rick

J DeBesse

Called last minute knowing that I would never get an appt. I was in by 1:00 and out by 4:00...1 tire replaced, leak fixed, tires rotated, TPMS reset, and alignment all done. AWESOME!

Billy Weinstein

Michy O

Great customer service. Jonathan was AWSOME

Renato P.

Had to wait a week to get my tires shipped from California but this was the only place that had them in a decent amount of time. Very good price on the set and the bundle price(mounting, disposal, balancing, alignment) could not be beat. A little far from me but would go back again.

Albert Barsoumian

Direct Tire has really been great these last two winters. It's hard to find people who are honest and care about the customer these days but that's exactly the experience I have had with them. I've had flat tires and bent rims two winters in a row due to the potholes and Barry was exception to deal with. He explained my options, communicated with me constantly and got the work done for a fair price. They're my go to shop now - although I hope I don't get any more flat tires.

Cris py

Great place!

E Taldon

Great A+++ Service and customer service

Mike Krongel

Dropped in this morning to have a tire repaired. Place was very busy. Jesus Robles took care of getting me in and out in more than reasonable time. Thanks. Overall, for the past 30 odd years Direct Tire has been awesome. I highly recommend Direct Tire and Auto, Watertown.

Lincoln Pasquina

Very professional, I never feel like they are trying to con me out of anything, and they do a great job of the work I ask them to. They're great about switching my snow and summer tires. Thanks!

Matthew Curtis

highly recommended and still exceeded expectations

Ellen Burns

Eric Schaeffer

Went in to change my winter tires to summers over the weekend. Took a little under two hours, which wasn't so bad, and so far the new tires seem to be working just fine.

Joseph Coelho

Win

Staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and timely. My services were limited to rotating, balancing tires, and purchase of two new tires.

Brian Ferguson

Great service as always.

Ed

Chastity Odell

Dude told me he wasn't sure if they could diagnose my check engine light, when I made an appointment previously for that and my tire monitor system. I was like "you serious?"

Lawrence Berman

As a long time customer, it is great to see that Barry Steinberg & his team are keep up their standards of excellent customer service. Larry Berman

very good service

Gary Cormier

I never write reviews good or bad but felt I needed to write this. Went in for an oil change, Direct Tire of Watertown. Front desk manager told me I needed 10 new lug nuts. I said I’m not buying new lug nuts from you. He raised his voice at me in front of customers in the waiting room, telling me I’m making more work for them if I don’t buy new lug nuts, because he had to hammer the socket on to remove them. I asked him to bring me a lug nut and socket. I was able to slip it on with my hand. I said I’m not buying them, he then told me he’s going to charge me for labor to put the old ones back on. He shook his head as we began arguing, he said “everyone just buys the new lug nuts!” He didn’t need to remove my tires for an oil change and if he was struggling to remove the lug nuts, I wish he would have stopped and asked me if they should continue because it would cost me labor to remove all 10. Ive been getting my oil changed and new tires from direct tire for 25 years and this was the single most rude customer service I’ve ever experienced anywhere. I finally spoke to the general manager Bob, he apologized for the unacceptable behavior of his floor manager Andy. Turned out that they didn’t even have the 9/16” lug nuts I needed in stock. Bob said he will order and pay for the lug nuts with no charge to install them.

Juan Pablo Perez

Fast and professional. Wifi while waiting

Emilia Diamant

These are some of the only honest, kind guys in the mechanic business. I've always found their prices to be on pair with others/fair, but what keeps me coming back is the service. They never talk down to me because I am young or a woman. They explain everything fully to me, and ALWAYS give me options. I feel taken care of and like they have my best interests at heart.

susan berger

Ken Reyes

Thanks again for great service. Appreciate that I could drop off car and leave it there all weekend for pickup Monday morning. You make it way less stressful to get your car serviced.

Tom Palmeri

Tim Delaney

I wanted to give them my business... Because they are local and convenient for me. I called them first. I need four tires for my toyota. It's a huge expense though, and price matters. The shop is clean and well run. Very conveniently located on Galen Street. Parking is convenient enough. The fellow who answered the phone was nice and curtious. He called me back promptly with a price. But I found the same tires cheaper elsewhere. I will certainly give them another try, next time though.

Jason Gilbert

Polite and prompt with quality work. If you have special notes in their computer they don't always notice them when your car is serviced.

Bill Campbell

There are plenty of auto shops who can "get the job done" from a technical perspective, but I know of none that can match Direct Tire in Watertown (Newton Crossing) for customer service. Not only is the staff consistently congenial and courteous, it's clear they are genuinely looking out for the best interests of the customer.

Debora Rottenberg

Excellent Service.

Alyssa Goodman

Simply the best. Always perfect service, cordial, and correct.

Heidi Lewis

Fabulous, friendly, and fast! I'm totally impressed with the service and professionalism of Direct Tire & Auto after my first visit. They took the time to completely check out my car after I came in for a flat tire and answered all my questions before and after the service. Why didn't I bring my car here years ago?!

Mark Stern

Nathan Connors

Great service, friendly staff. 5 stars.

Zixiang Zhou

Great experience!! they are professional! They take good care of my jaguar and shot a video to let u know what work they gonna do.

Direct Tire Watertown is fantastic. I've had the misfortune to have had several flat tires over the past several months, due to living near a construction area and getting nails in the tires. Each time the staff at DT greeted me with a smile, made sure I was comfortable while I waited and fixed the tire at no charge, since I'd bought the set from them. These folks know how to stand behind their work and I fully appreciate that! I am a customer for life.

Robert Solomon

Loss of mobility caused me to give up driving 13 years ago. As a consumer retention consultant with clients across the U.S., Europe, and Japan, I depended on the driving experts at Direct Tire for peace of mind on the road, whether I was driving to regional clients or just heading to the airport. Direct Tire's staff exactly fit the customer service profile I promoted to my clients. Now, thirteen years later, begun with the kindness of private donors to my GoFundMe campaign, then supplemented by an incredibly generous grant of $34,000 from Doris Buffett through her Letters Foundation, and through the equally generous support of MassRehab, I was able to purchase a new Honda Odyssey, converted to an adaptive assistive vehicle by BraunAbility. With the mobility independence I needed to return to work, and now teaching at a community college nearly 6o miles from home - commuting on a highway notoriousy dangerous in bad weather - there was no question in my mind where to turn for advice on all weather tires: Direct Tire. This professional staff exudes the principles of consumer retention. They understand it's not about the quick sale, it's about a long term relationship.

Justin Conway

Knowledgeable staff, high quality service (including a video of what needs to be repaired) and unsurpassed integrity - in the off chance that they didn't fix something completely or a recent repair fails, they will make it right for free. The only place I trust to bring my vehicle - and this comes from a guy who changes his own oil, swaps control arms, installs custom lighting, upgrades brakes, repairs broken parking brakes and hood-release mechanisms, etc, all on my own. Wouldn't go anywhere else for bigger jobs that I don't want to tackle on my own.

Emily Seaver

Great customer service, fast repair and free loaner car upon request

Steve Hodges

Best Tire Prices for Your Car Direct Tire & Auto Service was the only company to come close to my price point of $575 in the Watertown area. Included in the $575 for a Ford Focus, were 4 tires, alignment, road hazzard & warranty, and labor & taxes. The other six places I checked estimated at least $100 over this. Direct Tire can also give you a loaner Honda Civic, (if you schedule your service and request it ahead of time) and all you pay for is the gas you use or $9 whichever is less which is a huge plus. The service staff were very friendly, so friendly in fact they refused to talk negatively about their competitors. They also got my car in for the tire change earlier than scheduled (by my request) to beat an incoming snow storm. Overall, I would recommend this company based on great service and great prices.

Sandra Borjas

Muy buenos precios y buenas promociónes...

Jean Smith

David Langseth

I brought my car in for an alignment and tire rotate/balance this week. I was told to expect that the wait would be 2-2.5 hours total, but they knew I was waiting in the lobby for the car and managed to get both done in an hour - a nice surprise.

Eric Ohanian

Love this business. Bought a set of snow tires for our son's car ahead of last week's storm after buying a set for my truck last winter. Service is top notch, videos of your vehicle with recommendations of service needed, but with no pressure. Prices are competitive, but they change out tires and provide other perks at no charge. No nickel and diming here, just quality and professional service. Highly recommend considering these folks.

D Martin

Always friendly, well done service. Competitive prices. Just wish they didn't have to close Natick location because this one is a pain to get to.

Gerry Dawson

Newish to the area I didn't have a "tire guy" so came to this place by recommendation of a friend. Walked in expecting the professional yet still a bit "cookie cutter" we have become accustomed to. What I received was a professional yet personalized service that was once more common with mom and pop locations. They could have easily sold me a new tire north of $150 but instead assured me they could repair what I had and it would be just fine. $25 dollars later they have secured themselves a loyal customer for the foreseeable future. Thank you JR you and the rest of the team are fantastic.

Dana Rowan

Kate Carleton

Great customer service; Jonathon and JR were both polite, thoughtful and efficient and made sure all that was needed on my car, was taken care of. Thank you!

Joaquim Branco

Professional, courteous, trustworthy! Been with Direct Tire for 15 years and they have never disappointed me. Their people are first rate!

Brent Richter

They go out of their way to find what you are looking for and work with you on any specialized needs.

Mary Sherman

vikram sodhi

JR was awesome. He advised me that I may not need to purchase a new tire and he’ll investigate if the flat can be fixed. The flat was fixed expeditiously and the cost was reasonable. Will get all my car repairs from here!

Brian Segarra

Excellent service

Chi osax

These guys are great. They know what to do, and they make no fuss about it. I recall dropping off my car on two separate occasions for an alignment; and when I went back to pick it up, I was told there was no need for an alignment and I wasn't charged. You hardly see this elsewhere. Great guys.

Nikita Filippov

Called and asked how much will it be to change tires, balance them and do aligment. Was aksed what vehicle, tire size and if I already DO have tires. I answered those questions and specified that tires are MINE. Price was given a $15 per wheel for tire change and balance. When came in, it happened that price no is different. Now price was $35. So? while I was driving to DT, price went $20 up or customer service is just really bad, that they cannot give the price right and clear.

Elise Veneziano

Excellent experience, you came highly recommended and lived up to it. I can see why you're busy!

Stephen Kenion

Bill Bozaglu

I haven't been back to Direct Tire since I purchased my BMW in late 2013 as their warranty covered everything. Now that it's expired, I've rekindled the relationship. I've always had exemplary service here going all the back to the 1990's. Nothing has changed in any negative way since. I'm very happy and satisfied with their professionalism, courtesy and friendliness. I had my front and rear brake rotors and pads replaced. It wasn't cheap but it was approximately $300 less than what the dealer quoted. I will be purchasing a new set of tires come the fall and that will most certainly be at Direct Tire of Watertown.

Wendy Medeiros

Megan is the most professional and amazing young lady. Work and service is outstanding!!

Dena Deligianidis

Honestly I have NEVER had such amazing service before. Jonathan went out of his way to make me happy! I got a great deal on 4 new tires with alignment AND I was out of there in 2 hours!! Awesome!! I'll be back!

Mark Jacobson

J. B.

Quality work at a decent price

Peter Mclaughlin

Called twice and spoke to a service person, no one returned my call. Went in personally and spoke to someone who assured me I would receive a call the next day. Well no call. I just don’t know how they stay in business

Vinny D'Agostino

First experience with Direct Tire was amazing. Andrew and the crew a the Watertown location were awesome to deal with. They got my Jeep Wrangler in first thing to balance all 5 of my 35in tires and had me all set by lunch. I received a video from the tech while he was working on my Jeep and was floored by the level of detail they provide the customer, this is an amazing feature! Still working with the team to iron out some drive-line issues I am having with my jeep but so far I am very impressed by the level of customer and technical service they have provided.

Michael Donnellan

Probably the best car service in the country, never mind locally. I recently stopped in to look for new tires. I was quickly greated by Rick who was very through reviewing the plusses snd minuses of a variety of options. Today I returned to have them installed. Shortly after leaving the car. I recieved a text message with a video attached. I was a video from the tech who did a video check of the brakes, suspension, fluid levels and condition and air filter conditions. About an hour later, I go both a call and text message that the car was ready and that the brakes and alignment were both fine. When I picked up the car I had shinny new tires, washed wheels and even the car was vacuumed out. Excellent service at fair and reasonsble prices. I highly recommend Direct Tire!

Emilia Carlota

Great Service and friendly and efficient staff! Definitely a place to to for your car service needs in Newton/Watertown area. Easy to book app over the phone.

Jonathan Slater

Best tire and auto service in greater Boston.

Maggie Schmidt

Great mechanic. Full service. Highly recommended.

Alexandra Aldrich

I gave these 5 stars a couple years ago... I've been a DT&A customer for a long time. I just wanted to post an update - During the '17 Xmas holidays' snowstorm and then the "cyclone bomb" panic of winter 2018, I was thinking lovingly of these guys (the Watertown shop) where I'd recently gotten new tires on both my cars, alignments, and had the brakes checked and spiffed up. I had to do a lot of driving all over NY, CT & NE during that period, and as many people tottered anxiously along, I felt absolutely secure. THANK YOU BARRY and ALL THE HARDWORKING FOLKS AT DIRECT TIRE! Have a GREAT 2018!

Mingteh Tsou

This the auto service I have used for 25 years. I have invited my family members and friends to choose it as their auto service. All of them have been so happy to have it. What I want to tell my friends is that the Direct Tire and Auto Service is royal to its customers, so do we.

Maggie Mink

I was able to make a next-day appointment to have my snow tires put on, and was pleasantly reminded that the change-over is free (I think because I bought my tires there)! They also fixed a leaking tire valve. Thank you!

Ari W.

I went to Direct Tire after getting a flat in my Toyo tire. They were professional and fast. Would definitely recommend these guys!

Lisa Galen

Best prices, best service!

Leverett Flint

The service, as I have experienced over the past 30 years or so, was as exceptional as ever. My problem, early failure of front rotors on my F150, was solved with the installation of high performance rotors and pads. I have learned to trust the advice I receive and be confident that any parts or service will be of the highest quality.

Wilfred Pelletier

I was greeted promptly, the work was done properly and a full explanation was provided. I have been a customer for more than 30 years, even after moving some distance away.

elise person

went in on Fri to have oil change and get new wiper blades. everyone else had the same idea. had to postpone oil change but needed blades due to storm coming. they popped them on right away.

Dan Dill

Expert tire advice, reasonable prices, excellent service.

glen gaebe

Extremely professional. High quality work. They kept me updated with the work every step of the way. Top notch experience.

Daniel Padien

I have been going to Direct Tire since at least 1994. You can drive a lot of miles in all those years. The only tires I have purchased since, NOT from Direct Tire were factory installed on a new vehicle. Another shop would have to just about give me the tires for free to switch from these guys. From Barry Steinberg (owner) to the guy changing the tires they are courteous, professional and knowledgeable. They always point out safety or maintenance items without a hard sell and honor a warranty without question. I know Barry may tire of this story but it's a customer service win... For many years I drove a Subaru with the newest (lousy) way to attach hub caps.... one time they replaced it... not quite right... lost. Barry replaced it the next day. When another went flying on my way off the lot on a subsequent visit, Barry opened the "hubcap book" and said "pick a new set" on me. No more flying hubcaps. Customer for life. Thanks Barry and Crew.

彭嘉成

Excellent service!! Those guy are professional and very helpful..the crazy sound all gone. Appreciate!!!!!!!!

Nick D

My first visit. Went in for a front end alignment on an unusual car before a racetrack day. Shop was frantically busy, but appeared very well organized. Alignment was the most accurate I’ve had and the printout of the before & after numbers was appreciated. Keep up the good work!

Shannon Ryann

Needed New tires. Got waited on right away by JR. He was professional and very friendly. They took care of it while I waited. Only there a little more than an hour.

C Gustin

I've been a customer for over 20 years. Last week I was reminded why. Barry and his team made the switch of both my wife's and my Audi's so easy and pleasant. Direct Tire is an example of what exceptional customer care is all about and represents the way customers should feel after every experience. Thank you, Direct Tire!

Paul Paresky

Ms. Howe

I recently experienced a flat tire and called around to get quotes from several auto repair and house hold name and national tire store providers. When I called Direct Tire I spoke with Geno, who was personable, knowledgeable and thorough in explaining my options from possibly being able to salvage my tire with a sealant/patch to possibly needing to buy a new tire. Upon arrival at Direct Tire's Watertown, MA location I received a warm greeting by Geno who came out and examined my car's tire. He took my tire and showed me to the service area where he showed me how they tested the tires for repairability and explained how long it would take. Direct Tire finished the tire repair and in less time than was quoted which was impressive. Needless to say I would recommend Direct Tire without hesitation to anyone seeking superb customer service!

Bobby Gerjarusak

Nicest guys there. They fix everything

Howard Bornstein

Have been going to Direct Tire Watertown for 5+ years now. Friendly, reliable, on-time, good service, knowledgeable and reasonable prices. I highly recommend.

Aaron Shenette

Very impressed with the professionalism of this company -- the pricing is also fair and clearly explained. I will certainly refer friends to visit Direct Tire for their car needs. When picking up my car, they credited my pre-paid order because there was a better sale going on at the time of installation. Thanks!

Juan-Carlos Ferrufino

Great service!!. Sales Advisor, Mr. Jesus Robles was knowledgeable and welcoming. Presented me with a variety of good options with no pressure.

Alan Levine

First class place. Been customer since 1983. Great people. Outstanding ownership. When it comes to wheels and tires and undercarriage work...,.they are the best

Fred Hollister

As is almost always the case, Direct Tire tries their very best to accommodate its customers' schedules and provide great service. This most recent visit was no exception. A satisfied customer since the early 1980"s!

Karen J

Owen Tucker

Friendly staff, loaners available, and a great location. They work on all makes from Ford to Ferrari. Very busy, call ahead earlier the better.

Emily Tuohey

Walter was very clear in his video as he explained and showed me what additional work the car needed as well as what was in good condition. I also want to give him a HUGE thank you for vacuuming the car as my family and I have taken several long road trips this summer and the little ones made quite a mess in the back. He removed all of the sand, dirt, leaves, and numerous snack remains.

Robert Smyth

Work was done quickly and on time!

Sandra Fisher

I bring my car here for all service. Staff are friendly and helpful and the option of a loaner car is extremely important to me. Prices seem much more reasonable than the Volvo dealer. And now, they text you a video of the work done on your car - not sure it's helpful but it's a fun addition to their business model.

Alex K

They provide loaner cars. They have nice coffee machine. Their tires are good and they provide good warranty on them but cannot recommend the shop for any mechanical work. Significantly more expensive and not sure they have most ethical practices, or most experienced techs, regarding performing and charging for unnecessary work.

Matthew Bauer

carl woolf

Direct tire is best for service. Just replaced 4 pirelli P-0's for 4 Pirelli P-0's. Next replacement will NOT be Pirelli!

Julia Doucett

Just got an oil change but received great service. Would recommend anyone local to come here

Charlyn Bethell

You responded to my last-minute request. My car drives much smoother now!

Mitch Benoff

As always, professional, fast, simple and straightforward.

Matt Scarborough

I go to Direct Tire because they are the only one's around who store snow tires. It is very convenient (worth the $95 fee for storage for the season). Their tires are a little pricey, but the convenience of having them swap and store your tires is a big plus. Andrew and Johnathan were super helpful. I highly recommend this place for your tire shopping. Thanks guys.

Cathryn Armstrong

I find this place to be very efficient and trustworthy. They take care of all my car issues.

Joan Mikula

My son got a flat tire while using my car. We needed a quick turnaround and Direct Tire provided just that. I used to use them prior to getting my current vehicle which has not needed service. They're as terrific as I remember!

Ridgely Duvall

Not cheap but experts work here.

Pongthep Saenboonsri

Chris Wren

Convinced me that what I was trying to do wasn't going to make me happy, when he could have just helped me along into a $2k purchase. Maybe I'm too cynical, but that's an unexpected level of integrity in these times.

Ann P

Staff is professional, communicative, responsive & organized. The waiting area is clean & comfortable. I was very impressed.

Jillian Gelson

My car window's switch/motor broke one night and rain was due on and off for the next few days. My coworker recommended Direct Auto, as it's down the street from our offices and she's had nothing but good experiences. I called, they told me to drop off my car, and it was repaired within 6hours - well before I needed to go home. They were kind, upfront and professional. Definitely just got me as a regular for any auto needs.

Kevin Donovan

Steve and team are great to work with.

Chris Prone

These guys are very professional. The staff is very helpful and will walk you through your options.

Kevin Rhoads

The team at direct tire performs their work on time and keeps me in the loop. They are good about alerting me about work that may need to be done soon.

Ade Olu

robert ashcroft

Purchased new tires for my range rover before heading to north country. In Boston next day heading north I had a valve stem blowout in the tunnel. Towed to direct tire and they had us back on our way in 20 minutes. Andrew and the service technicians blew me away with how fast and efficient they got me on our way. They even offered a loaner car to complete my journey if they could not fix it. They now have a customer for life and will tell everyone about there proffesionism. You guys rock.

Mark Horner

Very fast and friendly people.

Nino S

Great honest garage, you won't be disappointed.

Sean Eunson

Excellent service - fast and polite

Mark Zurlo

I brought a tire in for inspection because it was losing air. I had not called ahead but they took down my info in less than five minutes and sent me on my way. I received a video from them a few hours later with an update and was able to pick the car up that night. Great service, no hassle, and great technology

J.R. Sebestyen

I've been a long-time customer of Direct Tire in its Natick store. When that closed unexpectedly, I knew that I'd have to brave making new relationships with the staff in Watertown. Silly me for worrying. Aside from the fact that we don't yet know each other's names, the care and attention that I and my car received in every way matched what I was accustomed to receiving in Natick. I look forward to a long and happy relationship with the Watertown facility. (One caveat - the traffic in Watertown is much worse than in Natick, but that's hardly Direct Tire's fault. I'm sure that it wasn't their idea to create a Turnpike entrance/exit just two blocks away.)

Steve Daley

Direct Tire is my go-to service shop. I have been a customer for more than a decade. They have always treated me fairly and have even done some minor work for free. You can even drop your car off after hours and put the key through the slot if you have an emergency. I have used this capability a couple of times.

Tony Post

Always great! But many of us in metro west really miss the old Natick location. Hope you can find a location further west! BTW, Steve (who I think has been there for almost 30 years now) is the best!

Andrew Markowski

Irene Stuart

I was very pleased with my service at Direct Tire, and I I especially liked the Truvideo I received from the technician advising me of the overall condition of my vehicle!

Saheim Emir

Ventsi Kichikov

I visit it twice for two days since it’s very close to my house. The first time for flat tire and I wanted to get the same tire. They asked for 200 for one tire or to get two for 238 which is ridicules. I went this morning again for my Camry and the customer service is terrible. I was talking to one of the sales man and he couldn’t recommend me anything. I had to decide what kind of tire are available. Next thing I ask to get Continental tires and the salesman push me to get General tires which I didn’t want, but I found out after the purchase. Don’t go there better buy the tires online better price and you don’t have to deal with people that push you to buy tires that you don’t want. Poor poor service Stay away.

Mike Cohen

Gave them a multiple shots but over all communication is lacking as well as accountability with the mechanics. Tires did not come in as said, no big deal but the shop should call the customer to let them know they should reschedule the install. The mechanic that was switching the tires from summer to winter had a family emergency (I completely understand) however it is the job of the floor supervisor or manager of the store to make sure the vehicle is done within a decent amount of time or at least call the customer to let them know what is happening. Don't let the customer know when they come in to pick the vehicle up to leave that they haven't started. Tire pressure is dependent based on tire model, the Psi that a customer leaves the shop with should be the correct Psi. I checked the Psi with the vehicle computer and then doubled checked it with a manual gauge as the ride felt rough. The Psi should of been at 33ish and it was at 55-60 depending now which tire. Torque specs for my vehicle is 100 ft lbs +/- 15 which means I should be able to get it off with a luge wrench but I need a 4 foot breaker bar or a impact gun to change a flat incase it happens. Everyone business has issues sometimes but this is too many for one customer. I will not be going back to this shop or recommending them to anyone.

People there were incredibly helpful and friendly.

I came at 8 AM to replace one tire. I was the second customer to arrive and they told me that it would take about an hour to change just one tire. I have waited patiently. After an hour, I saw that the tire was not even mounted! They kept receiving other clients meanwhile and I was late for work. The roadside service takes about 20 minutes to replace a tire. Why more than an hour and I just don't understand their unkind attitude when I asked when the tire will be replaced.

Excellent experience. The team at Direct Tire was friendly and switched the channel from racing to cartoons for my 6 year old son. The service was quick, on budget and there were no surprises. The added pleasure from this experience came when I received a video from the technician while he was working on my vehicle which provided insight to the condition on major drive and suspension components under the the carriage. Special thanks Gage and the entire team.

I had very bad sidewall damage to one of my tires. Direct Tire got me a comparable tire at a very reasonable price. I was in and out in less than an hour. Jonathan and the team at Direct Tire were stellar! Jonathan was particularly helpful, kind, and courteous.

winter changeover. called on my way in to check tire size compatibility with new car. was told my stored tires wouldn't fit. drove home. DT called back, said they would fit. rescheduled appointment. arrived, waited 2hrs before my car was even put on the lift. they pulled the summer tires off the rims, then came and told me they couldn't find my stored tires. went home in a loaner. they called 1/2hr later to say they found the tires and mounted them. picked up the car, TPS light came on.... not a great experience

Once again, excellent and efficient service at Direct Tire. This is my go-to place for any service need.

Bought a new tire there to replace a bad front left tire. They installed the new one and rotated it to the back which is recommended because the better tread should be in the back to prevent fish tailing. A week later when I finally took it on the highway I noticed I now had a vibration that wasn't there before. I called today to see if they could fix it. I said I needed to wait for it. They were very nice to service it without much of a wait. I drove home on the highway and the vibration was gone. I'm very pleased with their service and quick turn around they gave me.

I really like direct tire. I've been coming for years. The only problem I have is that the oil change appointments seem to be taking longer and longer. they are generally supposed to be an hour and a half, which already seems too long. But the last few times I've gone they've taken two hours to two and a half hours.

Barry and the gang always take great care of their customers. Impeccable service.
