These guys are top notch and their not out to Bang your wallet like most places if ya know what I mean I drive an 08 Nissan Quest I got a set of 4 brand new kumho tires with 1 year road hazard protection installed balance for only $560.00 they also throw in a free wheel alignment with the purchase of new tires this place does make other minor repairs but I have had the need for any thank God if I do Ill be sure to check in with them first before anywhere else this place take credit debt if you pay cash they hook you up a bit 😉
*****BE WARNED DO NOT GO HERE, QUALITY OF WORK HAS DECLINED*****I have been going to this tire shop back when I couldnt even drive. I have never had an issue and they have always been great. That being said this past year (June-2016 to June-2017) has been by far the worst experience dealing with the shop. For instance, them ordering the wrong parts costing me needless hours at the shop to extra noises on the car AFTER it has been serviced. They were not only rude but did not allow my Fiancé to view the old parts even after she requested it (this is illegal). The representative that I spoke to did not know that my Fiancé was in the shop when he started his condescending words of me. But the straw that broke the camel’s back was the fact that now after having to constantly call and speak as to why they are trying to pressure my fiancé in to unnecessary repairs, the noises from the parts that NEEDED to be replaced and wasnt replaced have just magically stopped. They have touched my vehicles for the last time. This last visit is what has ended my relationship with this mechanic.*****UPDATED*****Tried several times before posting this to try and resolve this with the manager. The gentleman that called me a PELOTUDO is constantly telling me that he is not there. I really don’t want to post this but enough is enough.
106 st Tire&Wheel isThe best shop to make your alignment done right. Mine was messed up several times by so call pros who thought owning computer alignment rig is a statement of excellence but lack of experience caused alignment to be messed up in clients cars. Kris was the technician to work on my van and after leaving the shop I can experience job done right for the first time in years of try and miss by other shops. Im coming back with my other car for shure
The worst dressing service.Buy 4 tires at this place. the alignment is included, they warned me to come make the line very early I made the line in front of the store when I want to enter I was surprised that I should go to the store to give me some alignment papers. Then it was no longer the 1 to become the sixth. FurtherIf they want to come, they must come at least 3 hours before what they are going to do later because, first, the alignment people work at a rheumatic snails pace and secondly, they are only one person for all the cars.

2022-04-26Very rude staff very dirty place took them 3 1/2 hours to fix my tire and it’s still no good. I highly advise you guys to go somewhere else one of the worst experiences of my life. I am not so sure how can every single staff member be so upset I was talking to them and they was looking the other way talking very low so it was hard to understand them I was being nice asking questions about the issue with my tire and The guy was just unbelievably mad terrible place terrible work done My review says one star because they did not allow me to put zero stars

2019-09-24First, I called to ask if they had a tire I needed. They answered quickly and gave me options.I arrived in the middle of the night so it wasn’t busy. The thin man quickly changed my tired and told me exactly what he was going to do.I was in and out of the place in less than 15 minutes tops. I could have not been happier. It was something simple but the man knew what he was doing and I’m happy with that. I’ll come back when I need something else.

2020-10-23I went to 106th street wheels and tires for a wheel balance and an alignment. First turn off was the wait, obviously it is not their fault, they are popular and work efficient. Second turn off, you go to one place to get the balance of the wheels done, grab your ticket, then you have to drive across the street to get an alignment done. First part, cool, guys were great, second part, not at all. Only reason Im giving it two stars, is because the person that balanced my tires was great. Across the street in 106th street, he was super friendly, and above all did a phenomenal job. I went across the street to get my alignment with all my paperwork in hand and alignment paid for. Apparently there is a list they work off of, ok cool. I waited about 30 min just to get my car inside the place. After I was inside I realized, what list? Customer service was extremely rude and even before my car was on a lift, 3 other cars were all attended before I asked what was going on. All they kept saying was next. 3 whole cars got aligned before mine was even touched, not to mention I was here at least 1hr... possibly 1.5 hr ahead of them. Not a fan of this place (on 105th street, not 106th street). Youd assume they treat all paying customers the same, WRONG!!! Want to get by the line, just pull up to a spot and thats it, seems that what everyone else did. That list, doesnt exist, but if you want my opinion, go elsewhere.*Update*They DIDNT fix my alignment issue. Car was still pulling to the right. I went somewhere else, they not only fixed the issue but informed me I got ripped off for paying at 106st tire. They literally didnt do anything to the vehicle.

2020-11-08Worst wheel alignment ever. I been this place three time with three different cars and the alignment guy always say same thing. (you have a issue with tie rod but I’ll try to fix) and in the end he did mass you car and said I told you have bad tie rod. And this time I gave them last try but still bad. Just stay away!!!!

2018-06-07Waited 3 hours for an alignment ended up asking for a refund. First I dont mind the wait if the work is exceptional but there was no communication about how extensive the work on the vehicle prior therfor the wait became longer because there were issues with this car which is understandable. Yet the mechanic did not come over and speak to any other customers or offer an alternative to come back or give an estimated wait time. Also when I arrived to the shop the mechanic was working on an oil change for a cab and when he completed he did not even speak to the owner who waited right in front of him an extra 30 minutes after the job was done. The excuse of the mechanic was oh i finished a long time ago didnt know that was you car.There were 6 cars waiting a girl waited 5 hours and her car still wasnt seen. She actually left her car and came back and the mechanic skipped her and was working on other cars first. This is my first time coming to this location and last time. As seen there are many reviews with negative feedback about the wait. Mechanics should learn how to prioritize their work. This shop needs better management and staff. An apology from the manager is not sufficient enough for me to be a returning customer. Clearly the staff inside the office were great but the mechanics have no experience in customer service nor professionalism.

2021-04-19I think the owner really want to business to do well in the community. Owning a car in new york is expensive call in for appointment sometimes they are too busy and ask you to come another say.

2019-04-01Ive done some really dumb things in my life, like the time I lost thousands on bitcoin because some internet geek told me it was a good idea to buy bitcoin at its highest price. But honestly going to 106 st Tire & wheel tops my dumb things ive done, bar none! I got there at 6pm and got alignment at 930pm. I waited 3.5 hours thinking oh man they must be great thats why everyone comes to them. Boy was I wrong, only part they even touched was my front wheels, so I went up and asked why my rear wheels wear unevenly, the dude tells me i have to rotate them every couple of months by, get this, by flipping them since theyre staggered. I should have known to just run to my car and fly it out from the location, but since Im not the typical man, I just let him finish the work and drove off. get on the road and then realize that the alignment is wayyyy off, i go back and tell him that its much worse now then it was before since now my steering wheel is point to the passengers side while driving straight. makes me wait until 10:30 pm and get finished to now still being way off again.I have no idea its your job to do wheel alignments everyday but yet still dont know how to do them correctly. It just baffles me to no end!!I dont care about losing $75 but I will never go back to this scummy place ever again. SAVE YOURSELF THE TIME AND PAY MORE ELSE WHERE TO GET IT DONE CORRECTLY. READ THE OTHER REVIEWS TO SEE THE WAIT TIME.IN SHORT, DO NOT GO THERE!!Also seems like they get family to write good reviews.

2018-10-18Reason Im giving it 4 stars is because I had to come back twice to get my car realigned, and the wheel still wasnt 100% straight. Felix worked on my car and explained to me that it wasnt going to be perfect because my car is lowered on aftermarket suspension, and that the height that I was lowered on wasnt even. He adjusted as much as he could to close to factory specs which was perfect. I came back a week later after adjusting the height and another worker worked on my car. He didnt seem like he did much, but for $45, I guess u cant complain. Wait time is long, so make sure to give yourself enough time.

2018-01-29Mr. Christopher Alons was so professional when working with me. He let me know what was going on and how long it would take. He made sure I was happy with what he was doing. I will definitely come back for his help again.
