Belle Tire

"I’m only giving them a two star rating because they were courteous, BUT THEIR LOWEST PRICE MOTTO IS UTTER NONSENSE AND RATHER INSULTING. I was in the market for a new set of tires for my truck and being a savvy consumer I did some price comparison. The first price I got was from Discount Tire and Taylor it was $1,560.63. Next Bell-tire quotes me $1,518.13, about 2.6% cheaper than Discount Tire. I head back to Discount Tire and they quote me $1,401.63, about 7.5% cheaper than Bell-tire. At that point I email the Discount Tire quote to Bell-tire — Bell-tire calls me and says they’ll do it for $1,398 and some change. That equates to about 3/10 of a percent cheaper. Three dollars and some change less than Discount Tire. I FIND THE BELL-TIRE QUOTE EXTREMELY INSULTING ON MANY LEVELS. For example, I would’ve had more personal respect for Bell-tire if they would’ve just called me and said, they couldn’t beat the Discount Tire price in any significant way. In my opinion, that’s what a mature person would have done; rather than, calling to insult me with a savings of less than $4.00 on a $1,400.00 purchase. As a consumer, it’s my responsibility to get the most value for my hard earned dollar. Perhaps Bell Tire should change their lowest price period MOTTO to lowest price period, BUT DON’T EXPECT ANY SUFFICIENT SAVINGS. In the past three years or so, I’ve spent between $2500 & $3000 with Bell-tire on new tires, this insulting experience has swayed me away from purchasing anything from BELL-tire in the future."

"First of all very horrible customer service off the rip. I bought 4 brand new uniroyal tires from Belle tire. Six months later I took it in because my car was swaying very badly and they said it’s because the tires are new. Fast forward 4 months and my tire blew and I had to pay 50$ for the warranty of the tire that blew up and could’ve cost me or someone my life. Never again shopping here."

"If you value your car don't take it here. I've taken my car to this establishment twice and both appointments have had everlasting damage on my car. The first time I took it in for a flat tire, thought everything was okay until I realized my hub cap was missing. They either didn't put it on at all or put it on incorrectly and it fell off within 2 hours of driving. They claimed they didn't have it and couldn't do anything about it. A week later a "Tire Pressure Monitor System Failure" alert popped up on my car. This has been coming on and off for months now. Fast forward a few months driving on the highway feels like I'm bouncing on a gravel road, so I bring my car in a month ago. First they charged me $400 for a "broken tire rod" that I couldn't even tell you if it was replaced or had anything to do my car troubles because nothing changed. They then told me my back two wheels are bent and "they don't fix that" which the cashier later questioned why the worker would say that on the phone. The cashier then told me he can't find any match wheels to mine and needs me to find replacements at a junkyard. They never did anything about my tire pressure monitor system when I clearly wrote that when I dropped of my car. Two days after I finally got my car back, one of my new hub caps came flying off on the highway. I don't know how it's so complicated to put on hub caps, but the workers at this store can't seem to figure it out. I finally got the chance to do grab some wheels week, and when I went to change mine I found that I have a bunch of the wrong size lug nuts on my car, and most of them have been striped. So much has gone wrong in two appointments that I can't even put it all into words. I'll never trust this place again after hiring and allowing a neanderthal to work on my car."

"Dropped my vehicle off at 9 am to have them fix and or replace any suspension work. Told them to just call me with a price, and any heavy duty suspension options, I was going to have them do it regardless. He said "No problem if anything we would have to order the parts." Called at 6pm that night and said no one had called me with a price or talk about upgrading the suspension that I had asked for. The answer I got was "OH, we haven't brought it in the shop yet." At 9 am they could get it in, at 6 pm I was told that they could possibly get me a quote in the morning. So basically they would have tied my vehicle up for 3 to 4 days 2 days to just quote me a price, a day to get the parts then another day to install said parts. No communication from them whatsoever. Would definitely not recommend going to Lincoln Park Belle Tire for vehicle service. Definitely look at a different Belle Tire if your dead set on Belle Tire."
