Elite Tire Co.

Mason has been my go-to guy for all things wheels & tires ever since moving to the east valley! I would not bring your ride anywhere else. He doesn’t even let me tip him sometimes. Great dude with an awesome business worth supporting!

Needed a screw removed from my truck tire. I popped in without a reservation. The gent there had my tire off, repaired and back on in under 30 minutes and at a very reasonable price. I recommend them highly.

Had new wheels and tires installed on my 25 Tesla Model Y Performance today. They were amazing to work with. I highly recommend them!

Thank you Elite Tire Co! Mason, Justin, and Bannon killed it, put some big boy tires on my LT1. Mason went above and beyond to give me multiple options (before I even walked in the door) to match what I was looking for, and included a good warranty to top everything off. Shop local, skip discount and big o!

Short Version: I got ripped off $550 on used wheels that are bent and unusable without repair by an employee of this shop. The wheels were presented as used but functional. I was fooled because I thought I was buying from the shop itself and not just an employee. Request for even partial refund was refused and the employee further wasted my time by setting a meeting to refund me then no-showing. Spoke to the owner, nothing he was willing to do to help me. Full Story: I recently purchased some used 17” wheels from a person named Bannon who works at Elite Tire Co. specifically the location on South Power Rd. I knew the wheels were used but when I purchased them they did hold air and seemed to be functional. Plus I picked up the wheels from Elite’s Power Rd location and was told they were good to use. Fast forward about a week I I go to get new tires mounted and balanced on these wheels by a different shop (only used a different shop because they were closer to my location at the time) and I was told the wheels were severely bent and needed to be repaired before any new tires could be mounted. I am obviously caught off guard by this and send this communication to Bannon at Elite Tire Co. via his offer up profile “WhiteRiceThrift”. Again, I was not expecting perfection from these wheels, but I did expect them to at least be functional. I then take the wheels to a different tire place to get a second opinion and they confirm the same thing, and even showed me the wobble in the wheels on the balancing tool. At this point I reach out to Bannon again and ask for a partial refund. I paid $550 for the wheels and offered to return them and only take $500 back, letting him keep the $50. I called the Elite Tire Co shop on Main st. In Mesa and spoke to Bannon on 8/24/23 and he confirmed to meet me at the shop on Power Rd at 9am on 8/25/23. I get to the power Rd shop at 9am and Bannon no shows. I then drive to the Main st shop to speak with him there and he isn’t there but I did get to speak with the owner. The owner explains they sometime buy used wheels to resell and of course all sales are final on resell wheels (though he was surprised Bannon wasn’t at work that day). My frustrations here are 1) I bought the wheels because I thought I was buying from a shop and not just an employee of a shop. 2) if I had been told all sales were final I wouldn’t have bought them (again I thought I was buying from a reputable shop) and 3) All Bannon had to do was tell me the sale was final and there was nothing he could do vs. set an appointment with me and waste my time on top of wasting my money. Overall be careful dealing with Elite Tire Co. as they have employees on staff who are not honest. Do not buy anything from the OfferUp profile WhiteRiceThrift.
