You are better off working on your car alone and would probably do a 10x better job fixing it than they would. I took my car in because it was overheating i didnt have the time or resources to work on it myself. so after being charged a ridiculous price and was told that they had to remove the whole front end to replace the part i was a little suspicious because i knew the part could be fixed easily it would just take some time. I picked my car up and on the drive home i had a hose brake on me while i was driving on the interstate and i didnt even know it happen until people were flagging me to pull over because my car was smoking. As i pulled over and popped the hood there was coolant all over the engine and it happened because a very small hose was not connected properly. So i asked myself “ if this part was so easily accessible and its right in your face when you pop the hood how did it get overlooked? And if that small piece of hose came off then how do i know they did a good job replacing everything else that takes hours to dismantle? It kinda sickening to think about and i would definitely not trust anyone else with my car from total car care. Dont even get me started on the brake job they did at another shop by simply adding brake fluid and costed me over $200 something i couldve paid someone on the street to do for $20. And yes i did reach out just to get called a troll and a scammer like how am i gonna scam when i already paid for the stuff and simply want it looked at again? Very poor job and i dont trust them. *edit* after reading more reviews from others i also agree with the fact they do a terrible job at communicating. I was told the car would be done at a certain time just to call them 4 more times throughout the day and finally go pick it up.

Excellent care again. Bob and his staff take care of my service needs professionally and communicate well the current status of my vehicles. I trust the work they do.

Brought my car in trying to figure out why it wouldn't start every once and a while. Got a couple things replaced and it kept happening. Got my battery replaced and it still happened, they sent me to a different shop and they replaced the battery saying it was bad. Brought the bad battery back to SWT and they said they would get me my money back through the manufacturer. I had to call them weekly for around 4 months. Every call was yup it'll be done soon we'll give you a call. Finally they told me they could only give me store credit. I waited 4 months and spent way more money than I should have had to to be offered a portion of the repair costs in store credit, for a bad battery that they gave me. No thanks.

We've brought our vehicles here for the last few years. We have been nothing but happy with the service and prices. June of 2019 and February of 2020 they got us rolling before we took long trips, getting the work done quickly and thoroughly. They always call after diagnostics and quote us prices and see what we want to fix before proceeding. No surprises. Love this place!

Amazing service! Was looking to get my car in quickly due to some issues. Aaron worked with me and was so kind. They figured out the problem and had my car fixed and back to me the next day. I couldn’t recommend them more!

Very sad to share this review as we’ve been referring people to Specialty Wheel and Tire for YEARS. Now my opinion has changed to “do not go here at all cost”. We started having a tick in the engine and took it in to have it checked. They assured us they found the problem, it cost us $2,000. So we said to fix it. Pick it up, the tick is louder, the Jeep has no power when accelerating, and it’s just overall in worse shape then when we took it in. Mike drove it 4 blocks away, turned it around, and took it back. The next day they called and said they were wrong, we supposedly need a whole new engine. When asked what about the money we just dumped into it, they said there was nothing they could do about it. I personally attempted to call the man who I’ve dealt with for years, he refused to call me back, instead would only call Mike back. Again told him we were out of luck. This was all following them telling us our truck needed new tire rods. We checked and got a second opinion at a different shop. We found out the tire rods were fine. They have turned into a money hungry business that does nothing more than try to scam people out of money. If I referee you here, I apologize and suggest avoiding them going forward. I wouldn’t trust them with an oil change at this point.

I was able to get a new battery installed the same day. They also noticed an oil change was due soon and asked if I wanted to do that too. Great service.

SWT is by far the best service provider in town! Got my AC fixed so I won’t melt and they prevented a serious accident due to a bad axel. Literal lifesavers. Thank you guys at your West 12th location!

I am extremely disappointed with the service I received from your shop. I brought in my German car for repairs and it is clear that your team does not have the expertise or knowledge to work on such vehicles. Not only did you fail to properly address the issues with my car, but you also put it back together in a way that it was not supposed to be. This lack of attention to detail and carelessness is unacceptable, especially when working on high-performance vehicles. I am deeply dissatisfied with the service I received and will not be returning to your shop in the future. I will also be leaving a negative review to warn others about the incompetence and lack of professionalism displayed by your team. I urge you to improve your knowledge and skills when it comes to working on German cars to avoid similar incidents in the future. And to add to this i believe i was charge about $200 just to bleed one of the brakes, they called it “pocket change”

Our experience was great. Aaron Zwak has a nice personality and deals with his customers very well! He was honest and kept me posted one what our vehicle needed and took care of them in a quick way. I would recommend your company to my best friends.

Had a great experience! We had car issues at the airport. We were trying to get home to Wilmot, SD. SWT got us in right away. Diagnosed the problem and replaced the faulty sensor. We got home and we're extremely happy with their service

Was in Sioux Falls for hospital visit and vehicle had a couple issues. They were able to fit me in that day and repair couple of major issues and notify me of other less pressing problems that I could fix when back to my home town. And give me ride to and from hospital, also driver was very nice, and so was the staff!

Highly recommended!!! Aaron and his SWT team on 12th street is the best in town. At the lowest of lows in my life in April of 2024! My son had wrecked my truck to non drivable. Aaron and his team worked hard to give me a reasonable price and fixed my truck. Aaron and his team are patient and caring Auto team. They say there are not of Good people in the world anymore. I can honestly say that there ARE STILL SOME GOOD PEOPLE IN. THIS WORLD! I would never forget Aaron or SWT for what they have done for me! Without them I would have been S.O.L!! The compassion and care they put into their customers is unbelievable. That why the name is Speciality W.T. TOTAL CARE CAR! They put a special Kind of Care for a customer like myself. Thank you all!!
