Dealer Specialist Tires & Wheels 6221 Yarrow Drive, Carlsbad, CA 92011

"These guys are good. They have cheap tires if you don't want to spend a lot of money. Or they can give you good quality tires and you pay a little more. They seem to be competitive with other dealers. Maybe a little less. I've been here twice and felt like I was treated well and they seemed to do a good job with my tires. Though it took a bit longer than they told me it would take to mount and balance the tires and do an alignment. They said about 2 hours and it actually took more like 3. They don't really have a "waiting room." I mean they have a place where you can sit, but not much in the way of entertainment. They have a few magazines and that's about it. So, unless you plan to sit and be on your phone or computer for the hour or two, you should plan to go and come back."

"Drove up with the doughnut spare on the right rear after a blow out. Blown out tire was too damaged to repair/patch so had to get two new rear tires. Paul, the owner, listened as I told him I wanted to change brands and what I was looking for. He did some research and came up with great, cost effective, replacements that were less $$ than my original tires, yet were also more highly rated in ALL specs. Great prices. Great service. Will go back."

"I went in to get a leak in my tire fixed and walked out an hour and a half later with a broken TPMS. They claimed it was broken when I brought it in and blamed it on Chrysler (my car at the time was no more than 2 years old with less than 40,000 miles). When said and done, it took 2 days and $108 to get my tire fixed. The people at Special Services were nice and professional, and installed the new TPMS for free (which I had to go and buy without reimbursement), but I am unsatisfied with the inconvenience I received by coming here. I will leave it up to your judgement. Maybe it was truly not their fault, or maybe they were pointing fingers to cover their own tracks. Either way, I personally will probably not go back."

"Best place for tires! They are careful with your vehicle and do the job right. Knowledgeable and informative. Great with hi-end autos and trucks too. I won't go anywhere else because I take care of my vehicles and so do they."

"It's always a pain to have an unexpected tire problem on the way to work. I was in and out in about an hour with two new rear tires at a reasonable price. Friendly, prompt, courteous. Saved me time and handled my problem as painlessly as possible. Highly recommended!"
