I dont know what I would do without their service. Being a senior citizen I can always count on the staff to take care of my needs.

Thank you for your honest and reasonable repairs. I really appreciate you guys dont take advantage of customers. Each time I have brought my car in, I have been helped quickly and treated fairly. As a female, auto repairs have been a source of frustration for numerous reasons aside from the car issue itself. I feel confident bringing my car to you without reinforcements (my husband) because I have been treated respectfully and honestly each time. Sad to say, thats not the case everywhere. You guys have given me hope I have found an honest, reliable place to take all our vehicles from now on. As a family of 4, thats important.

Jamel and team are just great, period. Personable, honest, great prices, and always great work. Highly recommended these guys with anything you drive. They do all our tires, brakes, oil changes and routine maintenance on our higher line German Cars for a way better price than the stealership charges, with the same if not better work. They never pressure you into anything, never recommend things you dont actually need. Like I said theyre just great.

Top notch service, honestly picked a random spot bc my car was in some serious need of new tires and an alignment. But I will for sure return bc of the great work and honesty of the shop. Jamel went above and beyond to ensure this will b my routine car shop.

Southern Tire is one of the few places in Tampa I trust with my car. The staff is super friendly and very honest. I go there for any repair service I need done and they never try to upsell me things I don’t need. If multiple things are wrong with my car, they’ll tell me what needs to be done now and what can wait so I don’t break the bank. I highly recommend this place.

Southern Tire Company is the absolute best repair shop in town. They are honest and do amazing work. Ive been taking my truck there for a few years now and they are the only ones I trust to work on it. If you need some work done on your vehicle I highly recommend Southern Tire.

Dont waste your time here. They claim to be first come, first serve but push jobs not deemed worth their time to the literal end of the queue and day. Wasted my day on a job that would have taken less than 30 minutes.

Review №21

Southern Tire Company was recommended to me for tire and alignment work after I had mechanic work done and I cannot be happier. When I called Jamel and explained my needs and that I was not in a position to just drop the car and go, he helped to make it work for me. He and his team were professional, honest, and provided me three financial options (frugal, middle of road, and top of the line) and talked me through each one. I asked about my brakes and he shared that mine were not in need yet (I think I would have been up-sole in other places). Bonus, they offered me a free tire rotation every 7000 miles... maybe a marketing tool, but I am greatly appreciative!

Your search is over! Bring your vehicle to Southern Tire on MacDill for all of your automotive service needs! They are honest, highly skilled, and pricing is very fair. Previously, I was of the mindset of servicing my car through the dealership ... no more. Your car will thank you for it.🙂

I used to work here, great people great atmosphere! Stop by and see Jamel or GregFree rotation and balance if you buy tires from them. Jamel is always out to help customers in any way he can to make sure your taking care of.. hes always in a great mood and makes people laugh! The Mechanics Carrie and Elio are great at what they do, never disappoint..the owner Troy Ragano is definitely a great boss to have.. great with customers and serious with business. His father Tony was always a great man to me, always shook my hand and asked how i was doing? RIP its hard to forget real, honest upstanding people.. this review is one i will never forget. So stop by and see what i am talking about. Visit Southern Tire if you need your tires and automobile fixed.

Excellent independent service location. I have got a variety of work done over the last 3 years from servicing our cars, new tires, rim repairs, brakes and rotors. Their work is always high quality, friendly and efficient. Jamel and the staff there are very knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommended.

I came here after stopping at another place that practically wanted to rebuild my entire front end and brakes. Turns out, i only needed a fraction of that.... thank you southern tire for your honesty. These guys simply keep it real.

Review №27

Honestly these guys are the best. Go see Jamel, hes taken care of our business Jeep as well as my personal Cayenne. They always have exotic cars there which should tell you something, theyre half the price of the local stealerships, and the team does fantastic work. Highly recommended.

Review №28

Staff was friendly and they we’re able to get my truck and my girls car in for new tires the same day. They were reasonably priced and never tried to push anything after we told them what we wanted. They also had my tires (Toyo R/T 33x12.50) on hand, which was a surprise as it’s usually not the case. Overall, I am very pleased with my experience and will be utilizing them again in the future.

Long time south Tampa business, courteous with fair pricing. Not always prompt, probably because theyre always very busy.

Thorough assessment, courteous service, careful work, and honest!I called them at the end of my shift to have my tire checked. Front Tire had been running low and occasionally making the tire sensor go off on the Benz. No matter how much I refilled it at home, a few days later the sensor would go off. I was expecting a nail or some pierced object in the tire.I called them around 430pm hoping they could help. Gentleman on the phone said bring it in and well take care of you. I was there by 455pm. Juan was my technician and he did a great job carefully removing the wheel and inspecting the tire. He found the issue to be loose valves! Tire was fine. He had the torque wrench to carefully tighten the outer nut and inside valve stem. Showing me while he did it, I could easily see the reason for the leak. (even though he had already showed me using the soapy water technique which is tried and true in my book). Then he checked the other three tires and reset the tire sensors after a quick drive. I am very happy I called them and they deserve all the annual awards they get! I could have gotten charged more, but they were extremely fair and I let them know I was very grateful. I am keeping this local business on my short list for go to businesses!

Review №31

Why does it take 2 days to change the oil in a car? I’ll never return to this business. I took Ubers back and forth to work and then home when my car wasn’t ready by the end of the day after dropping it off at about 9:30 am for an oil change, rotate/balance, and new windshield wipers. I was told it would be ready by 8 am the next day so I took another uber to get there only to find out my car was still not ready. I needed it for a road trip but I had to just take my car because I do not trust them to have my car ready when they say they will

Review №33

Not happy with their service. Had an alignment done with them twice within a month because it wasn’t done right the first time. The second time my car still wasn’t aligned properly. But instead of telling me that somethings wrong with my car and I need to fix something mechanical inside in order for the car to be properly aligned, they just didn’t say anything at all and let me go on my way. Got my money back but with a blown tire. Then they had the audacity to sell me a 150$ tire when I can find the same one on eBay for $70. I know the owner reads their reviews perfusly and replied to them. So if you’re reading this, please don’t even bother writing me back. You’ve done more than enough...nothing. Taking my business elsewhere.

This place is only as good as the owners Troy Ragano is a man of honor and his manager Jamel and his staff are top notch service people who don’t try and hit you over the head with stuff you don’t need . So Ive used them now for the past 15yrs for every thing from an oil change to a tune up it’s not just tires 👍🏼 See why I choose to give them 5 starsCoach O

Southern tire is in a situation where they have so much business that they have no need to swoon their customers with excellent service. They routinely service tires for all kind of very exotic cars; Maseratis, Lamborghini, Porsches...etc. They install super low profile tires on 25+ wheels. They perform road Force balancing too which is really not an option if you ask me...if you like a smooth ride...its a requirement.Ive never had a problem with their actual work. Their customer service skills are sometimes unpolished but some customers are rude to begin with, so...if you walk in with an attitude you may get one right back at you.

Im a first time customer needing a new tire because of a flat probably from all of the construction in south Tampa where I live. I especially like family owned and operated businesses and STC deserves my 5-star rating! They were incredibly busy this week before the Memorial Day weekend and told me that fixing the tire would take longer than usual and I didnt care because I made the right choice!

Went in just to get a new tire to replace flat. Walked in, the guy at the counter was stuffing his face, acted as if I was annoying him, a real douche. Simple, run of the mill tire, nothing fancy or exotic. Its about noon, douche says: well, uh, Ill order it, might be here at five. Damn, knew I should have just gone to Sam;s, oh well, too late. Finally, tire ready, another wagoff acts like hes doing me a favor just to take my money. Needless to say, will never give my business to this dump again. They were very eager to help this 20 something blonde bimbo who walked in with her entitled attitude: Im here, now everybody bow down and wait on me. What a bunch of rubes. No customer service to be found here.
