Belle Tire in other cities:
I would never recommend this place to anyone. I had a tire issue towards the end of the day and they could care less. Refused to help leaving me helpless and stranded. I went down to Discount Tire and even though closing, they were happy to help. They fixed my issue and had me on the road safely! No thanks to Belle. The funny thing is they lost a sale and a customer. I own my own business and have spent thousands and thousands of dollars at Belle Tire in the past. I will never return and will make sure to relay this to others as well! I would recommend Discount Tire!
I couldnt give them zero starts so I will put one. I took my car in for an alignment and asked them to look at bad tire sensor that was bad. After getting my car back the alignment was not fixed and would not track straight to save its life. It kept pulling to the left. I called them and they said they would fix it if I brought the car back. I was too busy with work and so I asked my wife to drop it off. While she was picking it up I spoke with the sales guy on the phone and he said the alignment was fixed and they had fixed my sensors. This was a flat lie. I got home and decided to take it out for a test drive. Immediately after starting the car the tire sensors light came on. None of my sensors were reading. On driving it still pulled to the left . I called the store again and the sales guy was rude and insulting. He tried telling me that when one sensor goes bad all sensors goes bad and when I tried to explain that is not the case he started barking at me. I ended up having to take my car to discount tire and pay for my sensors to be fixed. I am definitely never going back and will tell everyone I know to avoid them at all costs. Im also recommending that our work fleet find a different shop. They are never getting my business again.
They were very attentive and quick i went in to get a tire changed and.turns.out i needed over 900 dollars in parts! Who knew! Well i left to get.tire on and they called me back on my celly to tell me the.news about half hour.later. they seen me walking up and ran the keys to me and explained in more.detail. unfortunately i could not proceed with the process but they were nice and.fast.and knowledgeable
Funny story ... I went there to get my windscreen replaced, the guy at the store checked the size & details, ordered it and asked to come back in few days for installation .. I went back and they realised the windscreen which arrived was a wrong type - sorry about it, well order a new one - come back again in few days .. Went again in few days, left my car there - went for a walk, got a call, the windscreen which arrived was broken ... But no worries, for all my troubles they would give me a new windscreen for FREE and call me as soon as it arrives. Ha yeah right, few weeks later ... Total scammers.
I have a major leak in the cooling system in my daughters car & I took it to Bell Tire. Even though it wasn’t a tire issue, they can do full auto mechanic work on your automobile.I went there because they are usually so quick. But this time it took an extra day to order the parts from California.They did everything they could to be as quick as possible. But when they put in the new parts and were bleeding the cooling system, the car was being difficult due to the weird layout of Stuff under the hood of my Mercury Milan.When I had my wife drop me off at the end of the day Wednesday, because I thought the car was going to be done... both the Manager & the mechanic both came out to apologize to me for not getting done sooner L, this was an hour after they already had closed. In fact they asked if they could keep the car for one more night, so they could make sure everything was going to be done correctly the next morning. They said the coolant bleeding would be better if the car could completely cool down.Either way, I said I appreciate them making sure the car was going to be working better before I took it off of they lit hands.The Manager also drove me home from Belle Tire after her long work day had ended, because of the confusion.The Belle Tire team went over the top, got the problem fixed & even gave me a price discount for my Troubles- without my asking for any of that.I will always be back. They take amazing care of their customers.I am a Huge Fan of Belle Tire and their Benton Harbor store.
Despite coming in fairly late on a Monday and being told they werent sure they could make the fix before they closed, Belle Tire went above and beyond to clean out the rodents nest and get me topped up in plenty of time. Thank you so, so much for getting me turned around quickly!
I scheduled an online appointment for what I thought would be for a wheel alignment service for a time when the store was closed. Shaunna at the BH location called me ASAP to inform me of the discrepancy with the scheduling and accommodated me the same day. She was very professional, courteous and went the extra mile to inform me of the diagnosis with my tires. She was also gracious enough to provide a ride for me to get to and from work the following day while my vehicle was being serviced. I couldnt have asked for better treatment, in which she totally exceeded my expectations! Excellent customer service... she is awesome :) A+
Great work but, Didnt like the fact that I needed a simple tire patch at 3 pm, a few hours before closing and I still had to leave the tire there and come back the next day. It only takes about 5 to 10 min to fix the flat. I was also told to put a mask on, no problem, it was an accident that I didnt have it on but there were litterally employees not wearing them in the same room. Belle tire is a usually a good place to go, i must have been ugly looking or something lol.
I was getting an oil change before I was to hit the highway and visit family. I was advised that I needed repairs immediately. I called Belle and Shawna was wonderful! She got me in right away and I was back on the road in no time! Thank you so much!!! You are amazing!
Belle Tire of Benton Harbor, MI went above and beyond to help me with my tire issue. I am a small business that transports people to and from airports, so down time is not an option. When I arrived at the store with my damaged tire, they were able to replace the tire the same day. Thank you! Kudos to the assistant manager on duty the evening of March 4th. I do not recall her name. She understood my concern and was able to get me a new tire on my vehicle that evening. She may not know this, but what she did meant a lot to me and my small business.
Even after they admitted to giving my daughters car a bad alignment, which in turn chewed up her tires, and the tires are still under warranty, they decided not to have her tires replaced or stand behind their work. So after going there for many many years we will not be back.
I have had great service from Belle Tire across the state, but today in Benton Harbor I got the worse service ever. They had my car on the rack tire off and told me it couldnt be repaired. I said ok and purchased a new tire and it took them 1 hour and 30 minutes to put it on eventhought for most of the time I was the only customer in the place.
I bought new tires for my truck a few months ago. One is defective and they wont replace it. I took it on for them took at it and asked they could look over all of the tires as it is snowing and some were low on air. Not only did they not offer to replace my defective tire, they sent me home with all 4 tires low on air! I had to stop and fill them myself. Manager was rude too.
I scheduled a appointment to get new tires the gentleman I spoke with(Jim) gave me several options and quoted me exact prices . when I arrived I called and a Technician came right out ( I had my dog with me so I was able to stay in my car )he guided into a service. bay , and immediately started on my car but checked several times to make sure my dog was keeping cool and even took the time to go get ice for my dogs water. While my car was being serviced I called and paid for my tires , no hidden fees, extra cost , it was exactly the price that I had been quoted to the penny. I would highly recommend Belle Tire to everyone!
Belle tire did an outstanding job on my jeep with great tires! The staff were very courteous and helpful. The following day I was on my way to take my fiances mini van to get tires and on the way there the van started spitting and sputtering. I didnt know what to do, so I managed to get it to belle tire. I didnt think they worked on engines but worth it to ask and Im glad i did! Not only did they fix the problem, they went above and beyond! I couldnt believe how fast they got it taken care of and for the price! 100% honesty on their part. I got new tires on that also. I was discounted. Very happy customer here. They gained my fiance as a customer today also. I recommend belle tire and their professionalism is A+! No more discount tire for her or I. Nothing but problems.
I’m so glad I made the switch from Discount Tire to Belle Tire. Jim and the crew there are fantastic and I can’t recommend this store enough. They’re honest, friendly, hard working, and don’t talk to me in a demeaning way (like women get a lot in auto places, unfortunately). The store is always clean and comfortable for waiting on your vehicle. If you need any tire work done, I promise you won’t regret going to Belle Tire.
I booked an appointment to have 2 blown out tires changed for Thursday and I messaged them on Monday asking if they could possibly get one of the tires done sooner than my appointment so I could still drove to work. They said yes they could so I dropped off one of the tires on Tuesday, picked it up today and asked if they had availability to change the other one today. They again said yes and were able to get my tires done a day before my appointment. Ive had my tires done here before and the customer service and attention to detail is amazing. I highly recommend them over a lot of the other competitors.
UPDATE: Three days after my original post below, I received a phone call from the general manager (or assistant) who was very apologetic and sympathetic to my situation. He generously offered a service to make amends for my experience, which I greatly appreciated. I thought the response was very professional, prompt, and fair. I felt heard and valued. Still lost time at the original time of service, but commend these folks for quickly remedying the problem. Changed from a 1-Star rating.ORIGINAL: I made an 8:00 a.m. appointment last week to switch off my winter tires and check alignment. I was told it would be an hour tops. It has now taken 90 minutes and still not finished. On top of that, I got to stand in line and listen to an assistant manager talk about his weekend in Vegas while I clearly was waiting in annoyance for an update. He stayed on the phone for 5 minutes. Wanted to give these guys a chance but probably will be going back to Discount Tire. Whats the point of even scheduling an appointment. Nice new facility, but same poor customer service.
Jim and the crew were amazing. They had some hiccups getting my tires delivered, but made up for it and were upfront with everything that went on. Im very glad I stuck to Belle Tire and they even did a complimentary alignment as an appreciation gift.Once they had my Jeep, they put on all 4 tires and did an alignment in just under 2 hours. Hard to beat that!100% would recommend to everyone and anyone to go to this Belle Tire.
I have spent a great deal of money in this location over the last 2 months and Levi was absolutely awesome. The problem in this location is Jim the manager. He is very unprofessional and he does not know how to speak with people. He is very rude and childish. He is more worried about quantity over quality work. It is because of his attitude that I will no longer do any type of business with this place. I have already spoken with the district manager about what happened, but I have the feeling that absolutely nothing will be done about what happened.
Made an appointment to get my tires rotated, balanced and aligned. The manager Jim was awesome and made sure everything was taken care of. When I came back to pick up my truck, my wifes car tire was losing air and while I had to leave it over the weekend, they got me in and repaired the tire first thing in the morning. Things look like theyre turning around at the Benton Harbor location.
A big THANK YOU to Jim the assistant manager for helping us out when we got a flat on our camper tow vehicle as we were driving thru town. We showed up without an appointment and even though they were very busy, within an hour the nail hole was patched and the tire remounted so we could be on our way. Thanks for turning what could have derailed our vacation travels into a pleasant experience.
Very thankful!Me and my wife were set on a road-trip with our 8 month old daughter. We noticed low tire pressure blinking all of a sudden. I stopped the car and filled air in a gas station, but also noticed a nail in front left tire. The time was around 7 pm and almost all tire shops were closed. I searched for the nearest, open tire shop and thankfully found this one within 2 miles. They were super busy on that day and after hearing me out they assured this is something they can fix and accepted to do the fix. Within 15 minutes our car was ready and we were back in road. On top of all, they did not charge us and invited us to be in the air conditioned waiting room.Sure these guys know how to keep their customers happy!
For the most part they have great service but I have to say that my last several visits have made me question the mechanics ability and knowledge. I took my car for a tuneup and had the spark plugs replaced, so I thought. After taking it back 5 times and my check engine light kept coming on, I decided to take it elsewhere and found that only 1 plug was changed. I’m so disappointed because I trusted that they had knowledge in cars and feel like they kept just turning off the light and telling me they replaced the spark plug. That’s my bad experience or disappointment.
This is the best place to take your car for total care! When I was in store a customer had their car towed in after having an axel go out. They were quoted as having repairs to be around $1,000 and Greg and his team were able to get that quote down to make repairs more affordable for the customer! They look out for the customer like they are their own family!
Beware they are shady. All I needed was an oil change and to have my brakes checked. They refused to do my oil because the stripped oil plug was so bad they suggested replacing the entire oil pan for $900!! Theyre quote for the brakes was $1200 (what a joke) insisting rotors also needed to be replaced. Bought brake pads ($83) and had someone change them out for $75. New mechanic had no issues with my oil change, and belle tire was likely scamming me because Im a woman.
We are out of towners and had our boat trailer tire blow bending the rim like crazy. Every place we went to didnt have any rims but tire tech Levi and his men took on the challenge and popped out all the dents! Not only did they do that but while the men were working on the rim the sales guys up front were calling around everywhere helping us look for a rim in case they couldnt save ours! Best customer service Ive seen in a long time! Thank you guys so much for going above and beyond for us!
These are my guys 100%. My family has several cars (I refuse to buy new vechicles) and we always take our cars to Belle first. Not many people seem to know that Belle Tire doesnt just do tires: Shocks, belts, brakes, axle work, oxygen sensors, etc. Probably almost anything except for transmission / specaility work! Many of their employees were once mechanics for dealerships so their knowledge is extensive.I have never been taken advantage of here....and that should speak volumes coming from a woman. I know more than once the guys have told me that I need something done on my car soon, but it is not needed right now. And they always give written estimates so I have time to plan for the work. I am very thankful for their transparency.Do they get busy? Yes, but that should also be an indication of their work. Ask yourself: if they were not good at what they do, would they be busy?I recommend this company to everyone I know. And when I travel for work and need something for my car - guess what company I always search for? Belle Tire every time.Keep up the excellent work guys and we will see you soon!
My wife and I were on the interstate and felt a big rumble in the front end. We pulled off and found the first place that was open. Jimmy (service manager) and Brad (mechanic) were SUPER helpful. They were very busy but saw our desperation and took their time to help us. Thank you for your great service!
My family was traveling through Benton Harbor when our tire was punctured by a lag screw. We looked online for a shop that was open late as it was already 7:15 pm. Belle Tire had us patched and back on the road in just a few minutes. They do patches for free! I highly recommend these guys, they took great care of my family.
They had the ability to get me right in on a leaky tire. Ended up having a roofing nail in it. Couldnt save the tire, but I had a brand new tire in my trunk, aside from the spare. The guys checked it out, it looked good, they swapped the tires out and I was good to go. Didnt even charge me!!! Greatest experience at a tire shop in my life! =)
Awesome very friendly people but their sense of time is horrible. Waited 2 hours for them to put 4 tires on our car. Tires were on the car with in an hour. The next hour we just sat I. The waiting room having no idea where the car was. Communication is very poor. Don’t plan to have anything to do the rest of the day.
These guys are slimy. Got my tires changed with them, and one of their reps kept badgering me about a plethora of fixes on the vehicle. While I sat and waited, he came approached me no less than 3 separate occasions to recommend a different fix he would highly recommend be done today or soon on the vehicle.They got upset with me for asking other local mechanics for a second opinion / quotes. It was an incredibly baffling how unapologetic they are about trying to get not just your business, but also as much money as possible from you.If they tell you additional work needs to be done, take a breath and ask them to print out a quote. Take a day to call around local shops and compare prices. Youll find that 9/10 itll be cheaper for you to buy the parts yourself and have it installed by another shop (of course there are warranty implications for the work done, but thats up to you).Changing tires was cheap and quick though. That was nice, at least.
My husbands 17 Honda needed a tire rotation and balancing. I shopped around and decided to try the new Belle Tire that opened just 2 miles away from my home. When I spoke with Todd, their salesman over the phone, he explained all the extra stuff the clean and do when you get this particular service. Their price was competitive and I thought I would give them a try. The shop is spotlessly clean and modern. The salespeople including Todd, were nice and very informative. My car was taken care of in the time they told me, at the price they quoted and Im very happy with the service provided. I will be bringing them both cars from now on.
Jim the manager really helped me out. These guys understand customer service. I needed lug locks removed and after some trouble with their competition, they not only got my car done fast, they got it done FREE OF CHARGE. Ill be buying my next set of tires at Belle in Benton Harbor.
I have an appointment, and still it takes 2 hours?Dont underatand how changing tires should take 2 hours, take the tires off the car, take the wheels off the rims, change the the tires to new rims, put them back on. NOT rocket science, DO NOT recommend this place! Seen multiple techs sanding around walking by cars or just not doing anything so they can charge Labor costs!!! Go to Discount Tire instead.
Worst experience ever! NEVER go here unless you have NO WHERE ELSE to be for the rest of your life! I am SO furious! Walked in today because my tire was slowly leaking at 2:49pm. I was told 1 - 1&1/2 hrs. OK fine, Ill wait, no problem... At the TWO hour mark they hadnt even touched my car. The final straw was that they took some guys car that had come in WAY AFTER me before mine! Thats when I asked for my key and left.... NEVER TO RETURN!

2022-03-16I never have a problem when I come here. Service is always efficient and professional. As with any automotive shop, wait times vary for any number of reasons, but I can say that with Belle Tire, wait times have never been unreasonable. They do their best to get you in & out without sacrificing quality of work.And the prices are extremely reasonable.

2022-04-01It was a walk in appointment. Needed my tires checked, and they worked me in 2 hours before closing. A little over an hour and ten minutes they had me all set. They were able to repair two flats and they didnt charge for flat repairs. This was my first time there and I had no record with them, and I was like no charge. No charge. I thanked the gentleman who helped me, Juan. Great service even when it was a busy day. Glad they could work me in.

2022-05-20Our daughter’s vehicle broke down and was towed here. We were impressed that they took care of the problem promptly and at a very reasonable price. We were ultimately at their mercy, yet they showed their true business character and treated us honestly.

2022-07-05We were stranded on vacation at a KOA and Levi at Belle Tire took such good care of us. He answered all of my panicked calls and did everything in his power to take care of me and my family. Good people here and good service.

2022-01-06Ordered tires on a Tuesday late in the day, the Benton Harbor Belle Tire guys were ready to install the next afternoon but I could not drop off the vehicle till 0900 Thursday morning. The fella’s got the job done by 1300 (1 PM) same day! That was with a alignment so I was very happy with the turnaround time. This shop has always treated my family right over the years we have been customers. I recommend you consider them to serve you and yours for tire needs! PS. I love the gigantic American flag this shop flies “ God Bless American”!

2022-02-17Had new tires put on and in the process they scratched all four rims. Then when I confront the manager he says its just normal wear and tear when I know for a fact they werent like that. Basically calling me a liar and saying there is nothing they can do. Then on top of it corperate fails to return my calls. Highly disappointed. Dont waste your time or money horrible customer service

2021-08-17Great little place to get free air. Usually they are busy and you have to wait for someone to help you. Staff is knowledgeable to some degree. Prices are very expensive compared to other places when I got my rims and mud tires. Obviously I didnt get them from Belle because the salesman talked to me like I didnt know anything about tires or how four wheel drive vehicles operate. They were about $100 more per tire than the place I chose to purchase mine. I also received pressure to buy the brand the salesman was pushing on me when I already had my mind made up of what brand and size I wanted. They had an OK selection of rims available for purchase but they all had to be special order. I can do an order myself online and save the money

2021-11-11Putting on winter tires- Made appointment, told it would be 1-1.5 hours. 2 hours in told it would be 30 mins, 3 in still hadn’t started alignment. Got my car at 3.5 hours, no tires in back. Told me they put the all season tires in “scrap”. Told I had to let them know to get my all season tires back. Fortunately they found them…
