Excellent service. Lisa was SUPER NICE and they are really efficient. All the other tire repair places closed and it was really urgent. They really saved us. Great price great service everything went well here. They are 24/7 open so 100% recommend.

Dude, this place is a scam. I stopped by, and I asked the guy to swap out my back tires with the new ones I had. He checked the front ones, which were good, and then suddenly, he claimed there was a nail in one. Turns out, he always has a nail in his pocket and uses that story to get more money. Plus, they have a wall of tires in front of the shop so you can't see what's happening. And get this, they tried to charge me 120 bucks just to put on the two new ones I already bought from a different place.

Went here today to see if my tire could be patched due to having a nail in it. Looks at my tire and tells me no problem, we can patch it. Takes my tire off then tells me it “can’t be patched” followed by “there are TWO nails in it”. I say okay I will bring my car to BJ’s where I got the tires. Then I’m told “we will replace the tire for 60 dollars”. I say no thank you. They say “we’re going to charge you 30 dollars for taking the tire off and putting it back on.” I then go straight to BJ’s to make an appt for tire repair. Tire Center at BJ’s points out that my DIRECTIONAL TIRE was put back on the rim BACKWARDS! BJs can’t repair it til Wednesday, so I go straight to Los V Tires in Lynn on my way home to pay them just to put the tire on correctly so that I don’t have to go back to Rafelito’s. Los V patches my tire, tells me there was only ONE nail in it, and charges me 20 dollars. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND DO NOT GO TO RAFELITO’S WITH YOUR CAR.

Over charged for tire patch. Got charged $180 for 2 patches. They took advantage of me because I didn't speak Spanish and knew I needed my tire fixed. I've been to other places where it cost less than $20 for a tire patch. They took full advantage of someone in need, I will definitely never go back and hated that I had no choice in the first place

No matter how urgent your problem is, please don't go here. I was with my sister 3 minutes away from the workshop by car and we got there walking, they were very kind to help us but whenever I asked how much would it cost me? They just told me that they should look first. When we got to where we had to leave the car, they told me that to take two tires off, take them to the workshop, change them (because I had the tires) and return them and mount them would be 200 dollars. I would like someone to correct me if it is the price they normally charge for that, although I think not because the man in the end lowered it to 80 dollars (which I still think is very expensive for an address 3 minutes away from his workshop and for Just change them, I repeat; I had the spare parts for the tires. The lack of moral ethics and values of people makes me very sad, because if it had been my mother who was there, probably if she was told that she costs 200 dollars, she would have paid 200 dollars without knowing. Do not abuse people, in my case, I will never go back there.

Bought my bmw m4 here for tire balancing , I told him not to over torque my lug nugs , and that’s exactly what he did , said that the gun knew the torque specs for each car . Clearly the gun knew . Update he did reach out to refund me 50% of the tire balancing I paid. That’s not enough to change my review. I paid $150 to extract every bolt . A for effort I guess. Will try and half make it right .

The owner is very passionate. We got a flat tire at night and they were the only one open. But by the time tow truck arrives they will be def closed. The owner offered to let her brother waited for us late (for only $30 repair quoted). They used old fashioned rubber plug to fix the car, and only charged $20. They asked for $20 tip but I was def worth it (for waiting late in such a chilling weather!) Otherwise we would have to wait till the morning to get the car fixed! For those people who think they charge unreasonable, this is an example of they charging reasonable, they charged less than they quote. I wouldn’t surprise even if they actually charged higher because no one can judge how much effort needed to fix a car just on a call, and they were nice enough to offer a quote (The owner said many times that quote does not mean the actual charge which will depends on the car condition when they actually see it, I guess they are scared of people blame them for charging differently😂) Anyways! Great service! Thank you! (Sorry for being late for a month haha, I promised to give great review honestly but I just forgot to do so in a timely manner)

THIS PLACE IS A SCAM!!! My car tire has a sidewall bubble and I went there in the purpose to change it. After waiting for about 20min, they put the tire back to my car, told me they fixed it instead of changing it and charge me $60. They didn’t discuss with me about fixing it at all, which I did not appreciate. They demanded me to pay cash which I didn’t have any cash with me at the time, so I ended up paying with credit card with a fee. I came home, checked the tire, and saw all they did was flip the tire facing inside to make it invisible from the outside! (As in the picture) They claimed it is “safe to drive”. I drove on highway a lot and this could cost me and other people’s lives. PLEASE BE AWARE OF THIS SCAMMER!

We came on a Sunday and the guy didn’t even make us get out of the car due it to being cold and took the tire off and patched it for us right away. They work fast and are professional.

If you find this guy,just look in somewhere else, and tell him to don’t takeoff your tire until he finds the good tire or you will get charged anyway even if he didn’t find a tire.

So disappointed by doing what I thought would be a good thing and supporting a local business. They are more than happy to take advantage of someone in a time of need for not knowing what things should cost. After seeing that the owner replied to someone using the word "blessings"- I must say that if he considers himself a religious man- that by taking advantage of vulnerable people you are acting against the teachings of the Lord- and for that you should be ashamed of yourself!

These 3 brothers are the best. Honest, clear and go above and beyond. One drove me to my car to put the new tire on. Even the owner's wife is hands on. This a true family owned business and they do great work. Now if Lynn would only remove those stupid unnecessary bike lane medians, less residents would be ripping up their tires. Truly Full service

This place was so rad! I pulled up in my semi truck without an appointment needing tire mounting. They got me right in and to my luck they discovered that my inner rim was cracked. They replaced my tires and sold me a new rim then and there. Usually this type of service takes hours but I was in an out within an 60 minutes. I’m definitely coming back
