These guys are DISHONEST! I went in to have my tires changed. I had my own very good quality used tires to be put onto my car. They switched one of their tires with one of mine. After I left, I was feeling like I should check my tires. A very distinct tire I had was not on my vehicle. I called them stating the problem then gave them a heads up I was coming back to the shop. I get there and the guy I spoke to acted like he didnt know me, and I was there 20 minutes before. Tells me the tires I provided were on the vehicle. I told him to show me where the distinct tire was on the vehicle. He starts telling me that I dont understand the laws of friction in that the tire chalk wore off after I drove it off the lot. Also went into his rant of not appreciating that I was accusing him of stealing. I told him that I deal with used tire, and dont appreciate that they switched my very good tire with one of theirs, perhaps so they could sell a matching set... as I know they sell used tires. He ended up walking away. Little arrogant punk. They are crooks! Dont go to them. Kal Tire is cheaper than them...go there. I would not have gone to them had I not needed my tires changed within a 2 hour time limit.

Dream transaction: 1) Needed some tires quickly.Checked online and saw Poorboy. 2) Called. Guy on the phone (Chris) was nice and gave me some options- price installed. Said could be done today. 3) Checked around- found that prices were very competitive. 4) Made the appointment. Dropped off at designated time. 5) Tires done within 30 minutes. My rims looked cleaner than when they went in. 6) Price was what I was quoted. Im not sure about you but buying tires isnt supposed to be an ordeal... buy them, pay fair money, get them done on time. A++ for these guys.

These guys are some of the hardests working guys I know. They are efficient, Alum. alloy wheels are buffed clean, there is no foul language. You can see they work as a team. They get you in and back out in record time. The manager there doesnt hesitate in getting his hands dirty and pitching in to get the customer service an extra boost. These guys have no hoists they do things the old school way. They are top drawer and no I have no connection to this place. I just think when you see good service you should tell folks as well.

Honest. Good work. Best prices Ive found. Ive had tires done there twice now and I have been impressed each time. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable and very helpful. They have always gone above and beyond for me. I highly recommend them. I searched everywhere for a hard-to-find tire size, and Poorboy gave me the best deal by far. The total was literally half what the highest price quote I got from another place was, and two to three hundred less than some of the others. I trust them there and will definitely go back.

These guys are awesome. On a Sat morning after 1 phone call they found the tire I needed, picked it up and then had it mounted and balanced on my wheel within 15 min of my arrival. They were also $50.00 less expensive than a company my employer deals with daily. I will recommend this company to anyone and will use them for all my tire needs. Top rate service. Keep up the good work. +++++.

I showed up on the spot first thing Monday morning. They were able to perform a tire balance and rotation immediately for me while I waited. Awesome service and a great job. They didnt even charge me for the rotation since they were taking all the tires off to balance them anyway. Totally awesome and highly recommended. I will be back for all my tire needs from now on!

Went to Poor Boy for tires on my van in Jan/2017 was treated great by Jen., I needed a rear oil seal on my van and other brake parts in Feb/2017 and Brenda helped me out. GREAT Service by both Girls... Now I am taking my Van in for shocks and I know I will get the great service once again. Keep up the GREAT JOB !!!!!!!

Worst experience. I ordered all seasons but they put on summers then tell me theyre all seasons. Then refuse to correct the situation by saying theyre all seasons. When the manufacturer site says the model are summers. We tried for a year for them to fix it and got brushed off every time. Buyers beware.

Ive had several flat tires over the last few years and ever since having Poorboy Tire suggested to me I havent gone anywhere else. Their service is fast, friendly and affordable. Be sure to go to Poorboy Tire before you go anywhere else as they will save you a lot of time and money.

Good prices, great service. I had an issue with balancing after these guys changed my tires but after short chatting with them I was asked to come and everything was fixed for free. I like if somebody can admit a mistake and fix it. Thanks, I can definitely recommend!

Great service! Got the work done in a timely manner. I only suggest being able to take payments over the phone as I was just dropping off a car for my aunt and it was a gift from her boyfriend. Other than that great experience.

Excellent services each time I have used them for used tires....which is 3 times in a row and I am picky about where I spend my money and why. I prefer supporting a shop like this because they are small businessowners.

I went to Poorboy Tire to buy an used tire for my SUV. I was helped by Jennifer. She was really friendly, knowledgeable and went above and beyond for me. I would highly recommend this place.

I messed up my appointment time(it was the next week... Oops) and they still got me in and did the work very quickly. Not to mention it was the best price I could find.

A good and compassionate group of people to do business with. If there is any way they can cut your cost for you, thats what they will do.
