We had a blow out right at the 41/33 intersection. Pulled into the gas station there and discovered our new car does not come with a spare. SMH! After the shock wore off, my wife and I called roadside for a tow. We googled tire shops, saw Avenal Tire Shop with some good reviews. Gave them a call to see if they had our size tire in stock. They did, we got towed over and it was the best experience getting a tire we’ve every had. Martin was awesome! The guys worked fast and efficiently to get us back on the road in no time. So, Martin and Martin (plus the another guy with no name tag) THANK YOU for the amazing service and friendly environment you provided. To anyone reading this post, if you’re ever in need, definitely give the guys here a shot. You won’t be disappointed.

We got towed to Avenal Lube and Tire when we got a flat last week in 100 plus heat on 41. The guys answered the phone before we got towed there even though they were on their lunch. They confirmed they had a tire for my car in case the tire couldn't be patched. When we arrived they helped us right away. They were friendly and comforting to our two little boys (5 and 2 years old). They were able to patch the tire and even filled the spare (which was flat too) and got us on our way in no time! All for just $25. Everyone was amazing and so friendly.

Had a separating tire thread on highway 5 on my way to Disneyland on a Sunday late afternoon. The worse nightmare traveler can ever imagine and I weren’t able to take my spare tire off the rv lucky Martin from Avenal tire came to rescue. He was knowledge, quick and professional. He replace my tire and inspected all other tire and recommend that one of the tire should be replace it show evidence of possible failure. I was like where the hell am I gonna get a replacement tire in the middle of nowhere to my surprise his shop is only 10min away on local street behind the hill and wow the town was like a little oasis in the desert in the middle of nowhere. I’m so fortunate that the shop was this close. Once we arrived to the shop his brothers began working getting my other tire replace in no time we are all ready head on the road. It was a scary experience when tire fail on highway but Avenal tire came to rescue I can’t thanks them more than enough! We can continue our vacation and we actually also made home safely! Thank you and I’m grateful for your help.

The wheel studs on my back left side completely sheared off. My wheel and tire flew off my car, leaving me stranded just before Kettleman City on my way down to SoCal. Martin and Ben got me new studs and rotor and got me back on the road in just a few hours. Great hospitality and great service! Made it back home safely. Hopefully you guys won't ever need to stop at their shop like I did, but if you do, trust that you are in good hands. I appreciate you guys!

What wonderful guys! I was driving south on I-5 from the Bay Area when, about 50 miles into my trip, my low tire pressure indicator came on. I kept going until I reached the Coalinga/Avenal rest stop. I just had my car serviced for this long drive, so I called my usual mechanic and he assured me that the tire pressures had been checked. He said that just to be on the safe side, I should have my tires looked at by a shop that I could quickly get to. My Google Maps showed that Avenal Lube and Tire was the closest so I went there. They quickly identified the tire with the low pressure and removed it to check it for leaks. There was nothing wrong with it so they put the tire back on, made sure the pressure was good, and sent me on my merry way! This was Friday, on my way down to SF Valley. I came back to the Bay Area yesterday (Monday) and I had no problem with my tires (or anything else, for that matter) for the remainder of my trip. THANK YOU, AVENAL LUBE & TIRE!

Had a blowout traveling North on I-5 to the Bay Area last week. I found Avenal Lube and Tire on Yelp and had my tow truck driver tow me there, after speaking with the owner on the phone. They had the tire I needed, didn't try to price gouge me, and got the new tire on in less than an hour. These guys were great, and if I ever had to use them again I wouldn't hesitate one minute.

Martin and his crew are some of the most honest, kind, and hard-working people I've met recently. When my tire blew out on I-5 passing Wasco, I had no idea what to do. After making it to the side of the road and finding out that my AAA coverage wouldn't take me all the way back home, I asked the tow truck driver if there were any shops in the vicinity that could do a tire repair--and it was already 7 PM on a Friday! I set low expectations and Avenal Lube and Tire absolutely blew me away. When I talked to Martin he checked to make sure he had my size in stock first, and then we headed over. They had the tires installed in less than an hour, and when I saw the bill I couldn't believe my eyes--I've paid more for a single tire before. I paid them what I expected most other shops would charge just for labor at such an odd hour. All the staff were friendly and made us feel welcome, which I have to add went a long way at night, in a town you've never been, during a global epidemic. Without exaggeration, this experience showed me that there are still good people in this world, and I want to do my part to help them succeed. If for any reason you need automotive service while passing through Avenal, please go to Avenal lube and tire. Or, even if you have to make a trip, go out of your way to help some great people; I know I will.
