Oil changes and tire service needed? Go talk to Mario. He'll give a reasonable price and explain why he's recommending what he's suggesting. He's been around forever and I'll miss his wry sense of humor when he finally retires for real.
The rest of the guys are pretty chill too, but Mario is still my go to.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1Jun 13, 2021Previous reviewI've been coming to this Big O Tires for at least 25 years. I've purchased single tires, new and used, as well as full sets. Whenever possible, I like to talk to Mario just because he's a nice guy and an excellent business man. He'll work with you when he can and tell you when he can't. That's more than reasonable.
Anyway, my vehicle told me that my right rear tire was low on pressure. Mario was there and checked my pressure and inflated the tire. He suggested that I come back soon and have the tire looked at, there was probably a nail causing a slow leak. This was on Saturday morning.
I was back at 7:00 Monday morning even though they don't open until 8:00 am. This shop gets busy and stays busy all week long. The next customer showed up about three minutes after I did. By the time the doors opened, there were at least eight customers standing in line.
I was the first one written up, my vehicle taken in and tire removed. The technician found a screw in the treads, patched it and I was back on the road by 8:30. No charge because they were Big O tires. Life should always be this easy! - Mark B.San Lorenzo, CA04Aug 18, 2024
Sometimes wait is long but service is great! And take advantage of their warranty when you buy tires.

I had a general checkup here a the same time my friend needed to do her general checkup. Not only did mine somehow take two hours longer than hers, all of my personal tire caps missing, and my things in the glove compartment crumpled and boot prints all over my documents, I found something much worse way after.
I usually do my own maintenance on my car but I had to let Big O Tires do it for the last two years because I've just been too busy. Now that I have the chance to change the motor oil myself again, I found that they had managed to put a pebble into my engine! The pebble was about a half an inch diameter and who knows how long that has been in there!? I will not be letting them change my oil, let alone touch my car again.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jan 27, 2024
For two weeks now my car has been inoperable due to the hassle with my damaged tires trying to shop around and have my car diagnosed for damages.
Other shopscharged me $299 to check out my tires then left my car on Acc killing my battery and not taking ownership. I had to pay another $200 for a new battery.
Not to mention the outrageous cost estimates given by other shops.
I called Big O spoke to Fleur, Mario, and Jesus. Jesus help me today and has been wonderful.
My car is still with Big O awaiting completion but I am so relieved with the estimate and the intervention it's been a peace of mind knowing they can reasonably complete the job.
It is very nice to know there are honest people JESUS, out there not trying to charge extra to gain revenue especially when it is not necessary.
Two thumbs up for Big O Tires crew at San Leandro!!!Helpful 1Thanks 1Love this 3Oh no 0 - Allison B.Pleasant Hill, CA9422Apr 28, 2024
Great deals on tires. I'm a regular here after shopping around.
I went back to replace a tire, after one of the new ones I bought from them got popped my trash kn the freeway. I had the protection plan, so it was covered, and I didn't have to pay for a (new) new tire. However, one of the employees said I'd have to pay for alignment if I wanted it. but since I'd gotten an alignment with the original tires, alignment was actually covered for a year. He hadn't bothered to check before quoting me, so I was glad I asked--it saved me a couple hundred bucks, I think. Both types of warranties have been well worth it for me already. Make sure you check your bill if you're one of their regular customers!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Chris M.CA, CA042Jun 9, 2024
Came in initially to get an alignment as I had new tie rod ends on. They advised me that my current tires had uneven wear which would make an alignment useless. They gave me a solid deal (expensive but a solid deal) on 4 tires, alignment and threw in brand new lug nuts free of charge as I had a few warped lug nuts. They took care of me on a Saturday after 3pm. Car runs great and couldn't be happier.

. Brad should be in charge . All the guys were better than precision and idiotic Honda. Couldn't figure out how to fix the Honda 2014 ,civic that maybe 6 months ago now . The God awful power steering would catch? Or whatever go from power to manual new sensor control bar for it? Ha no. And then family member who only said that her boyfriend recommends precision Auto. Bolognia the same probs occuring for my nths and...Jimmy's. " Doesn't know what he can do doesn't know what to tell me .. it's electrical call an electrical guy in duhhh..
Car wldnt show the prob when he'd last test driven. But it does it every other minute then stops then suddenly pulls trust to go to manual steering again ..
So don't know if the family's...financial person will accept what I tell her . That big o here San Leandro one u cannnn. trust and pay for them to do the job ..
Either way I'll get the solution job done at Big O

I dropped my car off for two new tires. Service was fast, took under two hours, but for some reason they called to let me know I need an alignment. I did not need an alignment when I dropped it off, so it seems weird I'd need one at pick up. I don't know if I'll be back; I usually go to Berkeley and never have had this issue. Doesn't feel genuine or good, feels like a scam.

A flat tire
No hard sell on a replacement. Clean waiting area.
Twenty minutes later I was good to go.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1
