My family and I have been using Goodyear services, in several locations across Iowa, for over 40 years. I have been going to Fast Tire for 3 years and have always been pleased with their work and I trust them to be honest with me and not take advantage of my trust in them nor take advantage of my general ignorance of automobiles. The guys at Fast Tire and professional, effective, and friendly. Jim at the front desk makes the visits easy with his explanations, thoroughness, and friendliness.

There is no finer store than Fast Tires on Merle Hay Road! Great applause go to Jim, the manager. He and his team bend over backwards to make sure that everything is right and the customer is happy. In this day and age, who could ask for more? Thank you

Randy and Jim are always great to work with. I take all my cars there and they have fixed small stuff too like wheel barrow tires and mower tires. The tech cares if my car is ready to roll down the road.

My car broke down on a Sunday. I had it towed to my preferred location on Merle Hey Road. They arrived on Monday and recognized my car. They repaired it and had it ready for me that afternoon. I trust all my car needs to these folks and they have never let me down. My car is 17 years old and still running well because of this team.

Oil change and tire ritario nearly cist me another $125 due to their lack of knowledge about the tire repositioning procedure

Best service, prices and advice in the metro. Best prices doesn’t always mean it’s within your budget, but I haven’t found them to be beat by anyone else. The mechanics do a great job and the manager and service writer have excellent advice that should be heeded by anyone with a desire to not spend more money later. Take my advice.

Been taking my vehicles to Randy and Jim for over a year now. I really appreciate them doing their best to get me in and out as quickly as possible. They also keep me informed on my vehicles progress and let me know if they notice any issues that could arise in the near future. This is a great team.

Jim was really good at explaining everything that needed to be done to my vehicle and even was nice enough to physically show me what needed to be done! Explained my itemized bill to where my money was going and everything. This is my first experience getting tires in Des Moines and I am very happy with Fast Tires customer service! Thank you!

Fast Tire on Merle Hay in Des Moines is awesome. They are trustworthy and you can count on great service. The guys there do great work and I always know that they will take care of any issues I have with my vehicles.I have my wife take her car to fast tire as well. She likes the fact that they don’t try to talk her into doing a bunch of extra stuff. They only provide the service that you need!

This used to be Grahm Tire. New name, same great service. These guys have taken care of my car for years now, and I wouldn’t take it anywhere else. I drive 60,000+ miles per year. Randy, Jim and the crew keep me moving! Thanks guys! You’ll always have my family’s business for ALL of our vehicles!

At Good year on Merle Hay Road, Des Moines, I recently met a gentle man called Randy Lowe. He treated me with patience and professionalism such that I had never seen before. So, I became pleased and inclined to have Goodyear look at my wifes vehicle. That was during last weeks power outage. But as soon as power was restored, the vehicle got fixed, we were called to go and get it. It has so far been driving well. I wish everyone at Goodyear would behave like Randy. As a black man, it matters a lot how I am treated in this society especially at this time. My experience at Goodyear was exhilarating only because of one man. Arguably, such a man is the greatest and the best asset to Goodyear business.Olu Farmer8/17/2020

Highly recommend Fast Tire. They are always do an excellent job on all our vehicles. They take time to explain what needs to be done to the vehicle and always gives us a quote on what will it cost. No surprises or hidden costs, they are always upfront and honest. I have even gone in without an appointment and they helped me out right away.

Jim, Randy, and the boys take great care of our cars. We usually drop off the night before and they simply call when car is ready to be picked up. They will always call before doing anything extra. I highly recommend these guys!!

I needed new tires but wanted to maintain that smooth quiet ride that we had grown accustom to.They took the time to find the best price on a high quality tire that was comparable to the tires that came with the car when we purchased it.Fast and as always friendly and informative service.

They did a great job overall. Time wise it was good too. I had an oil change and a tire alignment and they did both at a very professional level. It is a little on the higher end when it comes to price but it is definitely worth it. Would recommend to others!

Have been going to Fast Tire (prev. Graham Goodyear) for several years now. They give honest and reliable service. Their people are friendly & courteous to deal with, which is the main reason I stayed with them when a new owner took over.

Review №44

People were kind and friendly, but Im disappointed in the quality of the work that went into my tire mounting and balancing. One wheel is missing its valve stem cover and seems to have not been balanced or lost its weight. While another shows a sign of laziness or rushing the job. They doubled up on weights on one wheel. Which means the heavy side of the rim and tire are on near each other. But instead of breaking down the wheel again and rotating the tire on the rim to have them be across from each other they just thew on more weight to make it work.for the amount of money and time spent I didnt expect to see any of this type of work.

Stopped in as a walk-in . Asked if they could replace the tires on my trailers’ rims. They said sure they’d get on them ASAP. I sat down in the waiting area and no more than 10 minutes later they had exchanged tires and balanced them also.Great fast service. Thank you!

Great service got me in with no appointment, gave me a ride to my office, and had my Ram ready to go by noon. Rides great and was better priced than what I was expecting. I am a past customer from their days as Grahm Tire and will continue to be a customer as they kept primarily the same staff. Thanks Randy!!

I have only had my oil changes done here but I love the hospitality (comfy leather chairs, TVs and refreshments) and the gentlemen working there are always nice. I have yet to feel like I’m being railroaded or pushed into some type of service or repair I don’t need which is huge! I will continue to take my cars here.

Really great service. I had a whole list of issues and they did a great job identifying what needed done. I was completely surprised they got it all done in one day. They arent the cheapest repair, but theres value in trust and quality

I’ve been coming here since 2010 and I’ve never been disappointed with the quality of service Ive received. The ease of scheduling appointments is the best. I can call and schedule today, tomorrow or pick my own day. The time I spend waiting for my car is so good I can bring my 5 year old and she doesn’t get antsy. I refer everyone to fast tire, the customer service is friendly and family-like. I will never take my car anywhere else.

Very friendly staff, quick and reliable! I wanted to use a coupon but it didn’t apply to the oil type I needed for my oil change. The guy working still gave me a discount to match the oil type I needed though, and for that I will continue to come here!

Review №60

I’ve gotten tires for two current vehicles and have had two former serviced there. I go back because each they are straight to the point and honest about what needs done and offer recommendations without any added pressure. The last visit, I had a weather cracked tire which they physically took me out and showed me the tire and again, still didn’t pressure me into replacing it (which I did) I came in an hour before close and they needed it overnight and they even offered to give me a rid home.

Ive been coming here for 15+ years for oil changes, tires, brakes, you name it. Never had a bad experience...not once. Randy and Jim are the faces behind the counter and they have always been upfront and great guys to work with. I haven’t interacted a ton with the guys in the shop, but when I have, it has all been good as well.

I had an excellent experience with Jim Geneser. He was so easy to work with and explained everything in a very clear way. He is so patient and respectful. I will recommend them to anyone who needs tires!

Review №63

I had the reverse experience that Jonna had. When I went to Firestone next door did not get much help on the phone or in the shop. This got me to go to Graham and Ive been going there since. Moved to the area a year ago. Ive bought two sets of tires now from them for a couple of vehicles. In the year I have lived in the area they have given me great service on my vehicles. I have another vehicle that needs tires now and I will go to them again because they have the best tires at the best prices. I have shopped around. The only way I would go somewhere else is if I wanted Michelin tires, which is what I prefer, but they just get too pricey. They are low to no pressure on sales which I like. They inform you of what is needed to keep a vehicle in great shape but dont twist your arm on getting things done.

Got me in quickly, no appt, with 3 leaking tires on my day off. They fixed 2 that had broken the seal and advised they could not fix the third because of a nail penetrating too close to the sidewall. They did excellent work, they were friendly, and was the cleanest shop I have ever been too. They have a very nice waiting area with comfortable recliners and a tv w remote. They also have snacks and drinks. I’ll will return for future services. Great people and great shop!

Jim greeted us warmly. Confirmed our information and took the keys saying itll be about and hour, give or take, to get the tires replaced. We asked him to call us when they were ready. On the drive home Jim call us and confirmed that wed be ok with thinner tires, as that is what I ordered and paid for from the internet. He assured me they were safe and sound to put on our Jeep so we proceeded with the replacement. They called back around that hour mark and we went and got the vehicle. They provided solid and timely service.

The staff and service at Fast Tire Merle Hay is fantastic. my first visit a few months ago was to have them check a leaking tire and fix it. they brought me to the back and showed me the tire leak and how it was fixed previously (rope plug very close to the sidewall) and suggested talking to the dealer I bought it from, as it was a dangerous and choppy fix. few months later, had them install 5 new tires. my truck was in and out within 2 hours and I couldnt have been happier with the service. Ill always trust these guys with my vehicles!
