Let me start by saying that I have brought my own personal truck and my sons truck to many local truck shops in Lee and Collier county and no one can compare to Southern Tire & Wheel. When we brought my sons 2014 GMC to Southern, I was already beyond frustrated dealing with other incompetent shops. Jessica immediately put my mind at ease with her knowledge of exactly what we needed done and her professionalism. Jessica and the mechanic (her husband) treated us as if we were their only customers from the time we dropped it off to the diagnosis and work completed. Their communication, timeframe, and pricing was beyond amazing!! I will never go to anyone else again other than Southern for all of our truck needs. Do not hesitate to bring your business here, especially dealing with Jessica!!

Had a new injector pump done on my 6.6 duramax. Upmost professional throughout the process and when I picked my truck up it never skipped a beat. 100% would recommend them.

Southern Tire and Wheel- Excellent, professional installation on my 4 inch BDS lift kit and new tire and rim installation. There a family owned business and it shows. I recommend Southern for all your truck add on. I will definitely be a repeat customer.

I have a older Ford Explorer that was in need of a little Personality change. I stopped by Southern to see what my options where. Let me just say that Jessica rocks. She guided me through all my questions and even put up with a bit of indecision on my part. All her suggestion where right on the mark. They did a 3 Lift and Tires. Just what my Explorer needed. Great experience.

Had taken my F-150 to a shop in North Fort Myers and found that they had no clue how to work on a lifted 4x4 so brought it here and these people know their stuff, I had several things done on my truck and was very pleased with the service and work that they did. Will not take my truck any where else. They do great work here and the staff is very nice, They make you feel right at home. Walk in and you meet a very kind, Friendly, And Helpful Jessica. And I had the pleasure of speaking with Jared when it came to my truck he is a sweetheart and very honest and up front with you

Let me start out by saying Jessica is a God send! I came to Southern with VERY SPECIFIC requirements outside of what a normal customer would ask for.They have not disappointed thus far. Their prices are marginally lower than those of their major competitors and their customer service has been amazing. I am in the service industry and could not say enough positive things about this shop. Do yourself a favor and make this your last stop before making a decision who to trust your truck with. Thanks for your EXTREME patience with me Jessica.

Genuine. Respectable. Dependable. Every person Ive encountered at this establishment is sincerely passionate about what they do. Youll only find accommodating and friendly service from people who make it their point to treat all of their customers like family. I first brought my vehicle here based off of a friends recommendation and have not taken my vehicle any where else since. You would truly be remiss if you gave your keys to anyone else!

I had a lift installed and a week later my tie rod snapped. It took two weeks to install and then that happened. I did not take the truck back to that place and I was nervous about driving it thinking things were not right. I took my truck to southern tires and wheels and explained my concerns and the manager Lyle was so nice and professional he looked everything over and took a test drive with me to make sure things were good. NO CHARGE! Great guy, great customer service and now I have them putting tires and wheels on for me. PLEASE COME HERE for all your needs. They are sincere and very professional. Thanks guys!!

I came to Fort Myers from Atlanta to watch my 17yr old play baseball. On the drive down I noticed the front tires were getting a little to worn for comfort. After a few hours of searching the Internet and reading different reviews I decided on Southern Tire. They gave me a fair price and had the tires in the next day (Toyo 40 Mud Terrain). They were installed professionally in about an hour. Ive driven on them for a day and Im a very happy customer. I really appreciate the quick turn around. The shop and staff are professional. Highly recommended.

I have a 2014 Jeep Wrangler Sport that needed a little boost in looks. I found the right guys to do the work for sure. I had a lift kit and new larger wheels and trailer hitch set-up put on it. They were extremely knowledgeable and LISTENED to what I was asking for. Superb craftsmanship made my hum-drum Jeep into an almost beast! Other than having to figure out how to jump up in it, I was thrilled with the results. I highly recommend Jared and his team at Southern Tire and Wheel to anyone wanting an honest deal from the people that LISTEN and RESPOND to your needs. It was my pleasure dealing with their entire staff! Best to them in all their endeavors. I will be back to get more toys installed, for sure!

After 4 different shops not being able to figure out the problem on the front end of my truck i decided to take it to southern after a recommendation and within 15 minutes they figured out it was an issue with my lift. Not only did they show me the issues but also explained how it was wrong. They offered to fix the issue but i chose to upgrade and go with a new lift. Process was smooth and my truck should be done in a couple of days. Highly recommended

Could not be happier with the service Southern Tire and Wheel has provided me. Jessica was awesome with getting me in promptly. Jared quoted me a great price to fixed my broken driver side window motor. I dropped it off on a friday morning, told him to keep it all weekend as I was in no rush. He had it fixed by Saturday morning. I am sending my daughter to him today to fix an issue with her car. If i trust my daughter ( who is my world) to go to him, then you can trust him with all your car needs. Will refer all my co-workers , friends, and family to them.

I cant even give them 1 star but it made me to be able to post, I have to say is the worst thing to do is lie to me. I brought my brand new truck in to have a leveling kit put on it so I could use the custom wheels off a truck I had that was wrecked. So part of the work to be done was to have my wheels balanced and to make sure 1 wasnt bent before I sold the aluminum stock wheels from the new truck.When I picked up the truck and took the highway home to make sure that there werent any vibrations I was disappointed because the truck was shaking. I called the lady at the front desk and told her the wheels arent balanced correctly she said make an appointment and they would do it again, in the meantime I realized that the wheels were never balanced because the original wheel weights were never removed.When I brought the truck back in I asked the person who acted as the owner as far as I know why didnt they even remove the wheel weights before balancing the wheels because anytime I had ever balanced wheels we always removed the weights first then balanced the wheels. He lied to me and said they always put them on the machine first to see if they need anything else. (What a line of BS!).So they balanced the wheels costing me to miss a half a day at work, about a week later I brought my truck in for its first oil they rotated my tires and i had the bad shaking again. I call Southern Tire and Wheel again and told the lady at the front desk what happened and that something was done wrong with the last balancing job and she nicely set me up another appointment to bring the truck back and they would do it again.So I bring the truck back in missing another half day of work and have them try again, during the wait time while the wheels were being balanced the owner seemed to avoid me but I just figured he had to do that often from my experience with them so far. Then the person balancing the wheels waived me over and said that a wheel was bent and that he had told the owner that last time I was in and showed me how bent it was.The initial lying pisses me off so bad because I could have boughten a new wheel when I first brought the truck in or even just used the other set I had that I didnt sell until I knew the custom wheels were still good. Now I cant get another wheel to replace the bent one because they now are sold out and discontinued and I sold my other set thinking the custom wheels were fine.I wouldnt want to believe anything that they have to say and I will tell everyone I know how much money they are costing me because they are so shady they didnt balance the wheels initially then lied about it, probably what they do daily. Stay clear of this POS shop!!

I took my sons Chevy 2500 diesel to Southern Tire &Wheel for a temperature gauge that doesnt work.After diagnosing the problem twice and replacing a relay in the transmission then a pig tail connector the temperature gauge still doesnt work.Southern tire &wheel still charged him for the parts and labor even though they didnt fix the problem.I guess it doesnt matter if you fix the problem as long as you can still make the customer pay..

I recently had my 2nd truck done by Southern Tire & Wheel and I could not be happier with how it came out. I had my first done almost 2 years ago. The shop is a little bit of a drive for me (i drive past several other lift shops to get to Southern Tire & Wheel) but they are well worth the drive. If ever I have a question or concern, I can call or email and get an immediate response. The same cant be said for a handful of other shops Ive had dealings with locally. Incredibly knowledgeable and not pushy. Definitely easy to deal with. You will not find a better shop if SWFL.

To any fellow off road enthusiasts especially those in Lee County. Avoid Southern Tire and Wheel on Fowler St. Worst customer service ever!! My wife had been wanting to add Bushwacker fenders to my 2007 FJ Cruiser for awhile because we both liked how they look. The body shop where she works was reluctant to do this modification but someone she knows recommended these jokers. Anyway it was only after they cut up the factory fenders that they discovered that it wouldnt work because of the brush guard on the front of my rig. Not wanting to buy a new front bumper and brush guard I told them to put the factory fenders back. Instead of being apologetic or offering to make things right they charged us labor and now we have to pay to buy replacement factory fenders which will be nearly the cost of the attempted upgrade. To add insult to injury the owner called my wife yelling and arguing with her after I posted my thoughts on their FB page. Not once did they apologize nor offer to refund the labor. Not once did they offer to make things right. Poor business practices and very rude to customers. And after this review was posted they offer positive dialogue in their response here, in an attempt to look good, but not once attempted to contact either one of us. If this owner spent as much time communicating with a discgruntled customer as he does trying to defend negative reviews and shoddy work hed have 5 star reviews all the way around. Beware this business!
