Gondez Tires & Wheels in Santa Cruz

The man is on point. Quick , efficient, so reasonable that I forced a $20 tip on him just to feel okay about the transaction.

Some time ago I took a car tire in with a flat to have it repaired. They repaired it and the fee was reasonable. Now I had a flat in a motorcycle tire, so I thought I'd go back. It was late on Saturday, but there were no customers in the shop, which I found a bit odd. They looked at the tire and I asked how much to fix it? $30. I said no, so they said $20. I said o.k. The guy took the tire, went to the back of his shop, then I heard a machine run, so I thought he was fixing it. He came back with the tire, which had only 1 hole, and showed me two holes and said $30. I should have confronted him that he just put another hole in the tire with his drill in an attempt to eke out another ten bucks, but I didn't. I just said no, took the tire and walked out. I will patch it myself. Because of this I can give only one star, for the prior service done well enough, but CHEATING drops them down to one star or no stars and means you CANNOT trust them to do the right thing. DO NOT USE THIS BUSINESS.

Pulled up on superbowl Sunday for a patch job. Salvador was excellent ! Patched up the tire and I was on my way!

I ran over a nail in Capitola at the docks. I called and the owner got me in immediately. It took him 15 minutes to get it out for $30. Thank you!

He was the only one open after 6pm on Saturday evening when I had a flat. One place stated they don't take in vehicles after 4pm. Was not going to be in town long as being part of a charity bike ride, driving a support vehicle and desperately needed it fixed right away. The man patched it w/n 15 minutes and liked how he double checked it in his water tank. He mounted it back on and I was on my way. Would definitely seek his services again if this situation happened again.

Very bad experience. Took my car for a wheel balance. The guy who did the job, didn’t even clean the wheel where the weights were placed to balance the wheel. Weights on wheel came off in a day after being placed. I returned back to get the wheel done right and the guy (worker) refused to do the job right. He claimed nothing bad will happen to my tire if I drive my car like that. I had to take my car somewhere else to get this done right. Do not recomen this shop.

Things were looking bad at the new tire store but Condez was willing and able to supply decent used tires with no muss or fuss. Saved me about $900.

Gondez tires saved my day! They are proficient and helped me right away on Easter morning when my tire blew out near the exit to this business. I have a very small car and they pulled out a tire to get me back on the road! Great prices. 🥰🥰🥰🤩🤩🤩🙏🙏🙏
