Do not - under any circumstances - go here!!! On April 22, 2026 Town Fair Tire of West Roxbury, MA did not put my four new tires on properly, but said my car was safe to drive. It wasn't safe to drive. I paid almost $2,000. And only half mile after leaving Town Fair Tire shop the front right tire rolled off my car, which caused me to crash into another parked car. My car is totaled, and they are saying it is not their fault!!! Pathetic, unethical liars. Even the fire fighter who came to the accident scene said he personally had a nightmare experiences with Town Fair Tire.

DAYVILLE CT. TOWN FAIR TIRE. Selected 4 tires for my truck that would be in for its appointment 8 AM Sat. 5/9/26. I arrived on time. The place wasn't open, I waited and the lot filled in with walk in customers. I was put dead last like I never had an appointment. After I complained Christian said, "Oh, your truck is going in now." It sat in the last bay for a while till they got to it. 2 hrs. later I got it back. Christian brought the key to the waiting area 'cause I am handicapped. He seemed put out! I am never going back; these clowns don't care about the customer. Only the money! Return customers mean nothing! Plenty of better people to do business with out there!

Dropped my car off Sunday night due to a slow leak caused by running over a piece of metal. I called Monday and they told me it was up to me to call even after dropping keys in the overnight box with a description of the tire. A few hours later I received a voicemail from “Ian” who stated that the tire could not be repaired and needed to be replaced. He gave me the price of the tire ($366) plus the cost of installation, balance, etc. He then stated that there was currently an $80 rebate for the tire. I asked him to break down the cost again and once again he added the $80 rebate.
When I picked the car up I was presented with a bill for $399. When i asked about the rebate he looked at the bill and said the man who i spoke to was off for the rest of the day and the $80 rebate was for four tires. When I told him I was told it was the replacement of my tire he told me “I WAS WRONG”. I paid the bill and walked away….the representative yelled out “you’re welcome” as I was leaving. I wasn’t rude….just bothered that I was mislead. My two cents…..get everything in writing with these guys before they start working on your car. No need for me…..I will not be going back. Very deceptive business practices.

Bought 4 tires at the Avon CT location. Got Road Hazard Warranty, Balancing, and Alignment. When I first went in I specifically said to the technician that the "low tire" light kept coming on. He and another guy behind the counter ASSURED me this would be fixed. After paying and leaving, the low tire light came back on. I returned 2 days later and they reset the air in all 4 tires and got the light off. A day later the light went on again. When I returned they informed me that there are small batteries at the valve stems (the stems were supposedly replaced). these batteries sometimes die and make the light go on. I asked them why, when they had the tires off the wheels and replacing the stems, they didn't replace the batteries since they ASSURED me this would be fixed.
The answer was that maybe the weak battery wasn't found at that point. I asked for the location manger and he said they could replace the batteries now for an additional $200!! When I said this was supposed to be done, I was told if I wanted to go to Firestone up the street, they would charge me more as would Subaru! I could not even get an answer if the tires would be rebalanced since the tire would have to be separated from the wheel again to replace the battery. They may sell tires, but they do not sell trust or customer service. I'll pay more to get the peace of mind that should come with such a high price tag.

I was having an issue with a tire sensor on my Silverado. It took a few extra visits yet each time the service people were excellent and always helpful. Initially the problem was a bad sensor. The service people repaired all the sensors. Yet there was one sensor that continued to be an issue. I took it back today and as usual the service people were phenomenal.

When you get there first they make you feel you in heaven especially manager Ed. Sell you for 4 tires with everything included (lifetime road hazard insurance, lifetime rotation) when you have a problem with tire quality (like bubble) they say this problem not from the tire. They don’t want to help you for. Yes you understand me correctly. It’s with lifetime insurance. They says you have to pay lifetime insurance when we replace the tire. This is insane. They don’t want to do business in good way. This is called stealing money.
After these conversation I talked to corporate customer service phone number from Connecticut (800) 972-2245 with Michael **. He was so mean. He wasn’t listening quietly when I talked. Interrupted me several times. After hard talking he put me on hold and talked to East Providence branch. After talking with them offer me %7 discount for new tire and rotation. I said no I don’t have to pay. He back to talk with branch then offer me %10 discount. I said no. Because I don’t have to pay. Lifetime insurance meaning only one time you pay then don’t pay if something happens to tire. I have a big problem here.
Also few months ago I bought 4 breaks here. More than disappointing. Like I said, show your money they make you person in heaven, if no money they will tell you go hell👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 HOW THEY GETS 4.9 stars. Because they give you a piece of paper with Google recommendations for them. Give me 5 star. And of course you are nice person. You want to help to their business. This is happened to me from manager Ed. Anyway folks never recommend to anybody, especially Uber/Lyft or delivery drivers

I have been going to the Town fair tire for the past 20 years and have always had an excellent experience. But today on 12/20/25 on Loudon Road in Concord NH. I had an appointment to drop my car off for change-over to snow and all wheel alignment at 8:30 in the morning. I know the place closed at 4:00 pm so I went to TFT to see if my car was done. When I arrived there they said it wasn’t done, so I waited until 4:30 and one of the guy asked me my name so he could check on my car. He then came back and told me they were just bringing my car in. At that point I couldn’t even tell you how I felt about that. So I told them to give me back my 137.35 and I would go elsewhere. I can’t believe the unprofessionalism that is at that store now and it had nothing to do with the manager Jeremy because he has always treated me professionally. I will not go back there again and I would not recommend anyone that asks because the crew is not as good as the past.

I brought my car to the (Windham) Town Fair Tire for a changeover from All-Weather to Winter tires. Shawn was very personable, knowledgeable, and friendly. My tires were taken care of expediently. Two days later, I brought my tundra up to do the same thing with the tires. Again, they were phenomenal with their customer and service, knowledge. I would definitely take my vehicles back up there for tires.

On 11/24/2025 dropped my car off at 7:30 am to replace tire pressure sensors. Town Fair Tire contacted me indicating tire issues and replacing sensors could not be done. Went and picked up my car and agreed to purchase four new tires same as Town Fair previously. Not in stock. Advised warehouse would have tires 11/25. 11/26 Appointment. Dropped car off 8 AM. Did not hear and called at 2:30 PM. Advised my car was next in. Town Fair closes at 6:00 PM. Heard nothing. Went to pick car up, arrived at 5:50. Car was where I parked and nothing had been done. Chad said it was a busy day and that happens sometimes with a drop off. One would think common courtesy would have dictated at least a phone call from Town Fair to let me know they wouldn’t be servicing car today. Have no idea what would have happened if I had not gone over and picked up my vehicle.

Went to the Dartmouth store to fix a tire with a screw at the top outside wall. Was told it could not be fixed because all they do is galvanize tires. But he would sell me a new tire. Took it to another garage and was told I should have it vulcanize. He put a plug in it for thirty dollars. So much for repair warranty.

I have had to visit the Concord, NH location 4 times in two weeks. The first time, 2 tires were put on and they said I needed a ball joint replaced. I get that done the next day and go back to the store for the alignment. I leave and my car is now vibrating heavily when I hit 55 mph and my front end is squeaking; and when I get home, my tire pressure light is on and 2 of my valve stem caps were completely missing and the other two barely hanging on. Also, the tire pressure was higher than what my tires should hold. I go back again, and they say 2 of my sensors have gone and one new tire has a leak. And that the overinflation is intentional to make room for "winter air." I go to that appointment and now 3 sensors are "dead." They said that when they do tire work that if sensors are older or even a little bit worn out that they will "shit the bed."
By this time, I'm so irritated, have lost lots of time from work and fearful to drive anywhere. I felt unheard every time I went back. They offer to re-balance all tires and install all new sensors. I leave that appointment and the vibration is now hitting at 42 mpr and I decide that the following Monday I'd go to a different garage. But by the next morning, I woke up to a completely flat tire (the other new one). I felt so defeated.... I used a pump to fill it up and drove a half mile to Tire Warehouse. They said the bead on that new tire needed to be all redone and that ALL my tires were wildly off balance. They were supposedly all balanced TWICE at TFT.
Tire Warehouse charged me $70 which was a deal compared to all the time, money and hell I went through. Town Fair Tire refused to service my car correctly and refused to listen to me when I knew things were not right. The absolute worst experience. May they experience what they do to their clients every day. This is dangerous that they remain open and work this way.

Twice now I have gone there to have my tires rotated and twice they have refused on the two vehicles I own. Instead, they tried to sell me tires I didn't need. When I insisted that they just rotate the tires they flat out REFUSED to do it! On the first vehicle they told me I needed 4 new tires and wouldn't rotate them and I ended up getting 7,000 more miles out of them. On the second vehicle they told me I needed to replace the two front tires which was BS. And refused to rotate them on that car as well! I will never buy my tires from them ever again! Their rotation policy is a JOKE. They just want to sell you tires whether they are needed or not.

I have used Tire Fair for many cars with success over the years. Last week I took my wife's car in to have four new tires installed. I had made the appointment ahead of time and selected the tires. They took my keys and I waited two hours when finally a man came out and said they could not get one if the lug nuts off and asked permission to break it off so they could continue. I said yes and sat and waited another hour and her car came around front. All the guys behind the counter had left and a young man said they could not put any of the tires on the car. I could not believe it. My spare was on the car and a flat was in the trunk and they would not go ahead and put any tires on the car. I have never had a worse car experience! Needless to say I will never return to Town Fair Tire!

I went in and spoke with Adrian in the Falmouth MA store. He was professional and to the point. He gave a quote and after checking some other prices that were similar at other shops I made an appointment for over a week out. I showed up for my 12 noon appointment at 11:30. Adrian was working the front desk again and he was already taking a lot of heat when I approached. People were furious with their wait times. Adrian remained professional and apologetic to everyone as he told me it would likely be a four (4) hour wait time for me to get the alignment and the new tires installed. He explained that they only had two techs that day and they were deep in the weeds. He offered to reschedule but I explained that I had set this day aside to get the work done and that I was busy for weeks out. So anyway, I waited the four plus hours in the hot cramped waiting area.
As Adrian was ringing me up, the tech that worked on my car whispered to him. Adrian then advised me that they did not have time to do the alignment and that I needed to come another day to get that done. I asked for the alignment to be taken off of the bill and I paid and escaped. I thanked Adrian because none of this was his fault and he took the slings and arrows all day. However, I am not pleased that I waited all of that time and some of the work wasn’t even done. The least TFT could have done was to offer a small discount or to tell me the alignment was free whenever I could get back to the shop. Next time I need tires I will be getting them done at Sullivan Tire or Cape and Islands Tire which are both close by.

I will never recommend this Leominster, MA business to anyone and I will never use them again. I made an appointment to have new rims put on my car. Had 8:00 am appointment and ride pickup planned. Arrived and the place wasn't even open and customers were standing outside. Short wait to be let in. I was 2nd in line. I stood at this counter for 10 minutes with my estimate paperwork from the week before watching this girl who was baffled by her job. Barely spoke and when I asked, "Is there a problem?" was told the rims were not there. She went back to check with others and came back to tell me, "Yeah it looks like he forgot to order them."
I was beyond irritated and said, "See the name and # on the top of my estimate? I want a call from him ASAP." They impacted the work schedules of 2 people with no apology. I went home. Got a call from the guy who did my estimate and he said the rims were there! I said, "I'll bring my car back but you need to supply the ride back" which he offered to do.
So later in the day I pick up my car when they said it was ready. I was then informed that my TPMS sensor was flashing and they couldn't get it resolved. So I said, "Then my car isn't ready!" I said, "I'll drive for a bit to see if it stops." It didn't. Had to go back and they attempted to reprogram all the sensors. It's still flashing. So I have to go somewhere else to get this resolved. Everyone knows if this is flashing the sensors are not synced with the car. Or one or more sensors needs to be replaced. Which a tire place should have on hand!!!
The lazy, inept staff at this location was scary to watch. I am actually afraid to take my car on the highway just based on how truly bad they are at their jobs. Absolutely no pride in their work or desire for success or customer satisfaction. Seriously bad experience and everyone told me after the fact they all had bad experiences and would never go back. Lesson learned.

Town Fair Tire mounted four new tires manufactured from in two different countries on my truck. Two are wearing rapidly and won’t be state inspectable before 30000 miles. Far short of the 70000 suggested. All customers should be made aware of this practice. Buy your tires some place else!!!! The two tire that are wearing normally will probably make 60000 miles, however, it’s a four wheel drive truck that needs identical tread patterns. That means four new tires will have to be purchased. All Town Fair Tire customers Be Aware.

I bought a set a snow tires last fall at Town Fair Tire in Lebanon, NH. Unfortunately, recently one of them was damaged and had to be replaced. Billy was the employee who worked with me and though we had not specified I needed the tower tire mounted, he was still able to have that done in a timely fashion. Not only that, I had had a recent tragedy in my family and found him to be very compassionate and kind. I have had nothing but good interactions at Town Fair. Everyone has been professional and very helpful even in the busiest times of the year. I would definitely recommend them and plan to always get tire service there.

All these experiences are post-2021: Seekonk shop 2024, I arranged for my adult son to get (4) new tires and alignment. Included with balancing/mounting are new valve stems.

Town Fair in Watertown, MA told me when I made the appointment that it would take 90 mins. When I arrived I was told 2 hours. When I left it was about 3 hours 15 minutes. They told me the wrong size tires had been ordered, but they didn't discover this until they started work more than 2 hours after I arrived. They didn't replace the tires ordered with equal tires, rather their own version of a tire made expressly for (and only available at) Town Fair. Same brand name but not reviewed anywhere by impartial testing sites such as Consumer Reports. The tires have a harsher ride, but I haven't used them enough to further evaluate performance. They were considerably cheaper.

Bought 4 new tires, with road hazard. Ever since I had them there has been issue with holding air. Went back and they charged me to reseal all four tires. This should have been done properly when purchased. Still have issues with them, I have 13,000 miles on them. Just buyer beware when purchasing an extended tire warranty, they will find an excuse to charge you to fix them and say not covered under warranty. I'm never going back again. Just buyer beware.
