What clients say about Rider Tire and Customs in West Warwick Township (RI)
If you care about the safety and performance of your vehicles, Ryder Tire & Customs is the only place to go in West Warwick. Don runs a top-tier shop and has handled everything for me from tires, brakes, and rotors to complex ball joint and custom work.
The team here is incredibly well-rounded, but a special shoutout to Melvin. He is hands-down the best mechanic I know. In an industry where it’s hard to find someone you can trust, Melvin’s honesty and unmatched craftsmanship stand out. They don't just 'fix' things; they do the job right the first time.
Whether it's a daily driver or a custom project, I wouldn't trust my keys to anyone else. Professional, reliable, and highly recommended!
Had 4 of my own Brand New tires, mounted & balanced. Been going there for years. They caught a minor disfomation, on one tire. From shipping, or packing, so I could take a pic. It was very busy, and I was still in and out, in under an hour. Great service. 💯
Brought my car in to replace two tires. They plugged one, which fine. Then they are a used tire place that didn't have a used tires and wanted me to pay $138 for a single new tire. Walmart has new tires for less
They just tried to rip me off for 2 used tires.. not mounted …. And the bad part is a friend referred me and they know that …. $45 each tire not mounted size 19” … so $90 and he said plus tax … I got one tired mounted and all for $60 last week somewhere else ….. I will take this further and make sure nobody else gets ripped off by them anymore … I was so polite and I had my wife with me …. Here is the kicker I was gonna get the tire rods done tomorrow but man I’m all set they lost what could’ve been a very good customer and I’ll make sure they lose more
BRING YOUR CARS TO THESE GUYS!!!!! They truly care for their customers and do everything they possibly can to get you back on the road. I recently got a full set about a week ago and one of my tires ended up getting damaged and wasn’t allowed to be under warranty because of road damage. Don the manager took his time to try and see if we could save the tire and when we couldn’t he made sure that I didn’t leave without getting my car back on the road. They hooked me up with a new tire and made sure that I was safe and ready to go back on the road. If you choose any tire place to get your wheels please choose them they are top tier and amazing with their customers!!!!!!!
Very quick and great prices. I came in for my tires to be changed and was in and out within an hour! Great fast service will be returning next time I need a service done.
So I never write these reviews for any place but these guys deserve it. I needed A new tire for my Escalade And I was prepared to pay $250 to get a Tire, have it mounted on the rim And go home and put the tire on my self But I gave These guys call They were able to get me a tire , mount it , put a new sensor on , and put it on my car for 86 . And That is with me showing up 15 minutes after I called It took me hour at most hour and a half . I am going no place else but these guys from now on.
Great service and very honest. This was the second tire place I went to. The first place told me I needed new tires, I didn’t. I would highly recommend.
I've been here many times also with my own vehicle this place is awesome well kept usually has what you need when your in a bind and is reasonable prices probably would even work with ya if need be.........
Went in thinking it would just be a tire change after swerving to avoid being hit and ruining my rim but that would be too easy. Melvin notices my control arm was SUPER bent and new rim would be damaged if he tried to just add a tire. So the search began and we where able to find the part. However, again things can’t be that easy right, lol, against all odd and even after hours don communicated with me around next steps and even Melvin’s determination to get our car back to us before Monday and they did! When I tell you as a first come first serve station and against adversity they where super professional, reasonably priced and just HONORABLY FANTASTIC! Thank you for all the hard work and even running around to get the right part personally, forever thankful🙏🏽.
Went in to get tires fixed and come to find out they weren’t good and needed replacing and when i asked them to check my breaks they found the issue and got to work on my vehicle as soon as they got the parts they needed. They were efficient and made sure my vehicle was safe before I left the lot . I was so impressed with the quality of work and the professionalism that they extended to me. I will be forever great full for the respect and kindness they extended to me. I will 100000% recommend them to anyone looking for a place to have their tires fixed as well as break repair.

I have had nothing but wonderful experiences and affordable prices with this tire place. Every single time I have had to get tires in the past 10 years, I have always come here and I will never go anywhere else.
Quick wait times, friendly informational staff who explain things in a kind and genuine way, and are even patient with impatient children. I can’t say enough nice things, get your tires here!! Never once had a bad experience, only people I trust with my tires.
I can only speak of the ethicality of this shop.
On two separate occasions weeks apart in two separate vehicles looked at by two different technicians,I have gone in search of tires thinking I needed new ones. I know nothing of tires they could have easily upsold me or just sold me anything in general but both times they inspected my tires for free and told me that I did not need tires.
Without a shadow of a doubt I'll be using the shop for any and all services that they provide for my vehicle.
Finding mechanics that are genuine and honest and care enough about their community to turn away a sale for the betterment of the individual is such a rare find.
I needed all my tires put on. I purchased them and brought them all here. I asked the guy, and they said they had one car ahead of me. Took them about 5 minutes to finish up. They took me in and in 20 minutes had all 4 of my tires mounted and balanced. The car feels so much better now, and I couldn't ask for better service. I will be going back to them for an alignment. They have reasonable prices, and it's not a rip-off ! They were great. I highly recommend 👌 👍
super happy with my experience at Rider! I blew out my tire and chewed up my rim. they checked the seal of the rim to tire to make sure it wont leak in the future and even matched up a tire with the same tread wear as my other ones so they'd wear evenly. im absolutely in awe at the compassion and customer service they provide! they were also the cheapest price in RI! lifetime customer now! thankyou!
Took my jeep grand cherokee there this morning. Had a giant bolt in my tire... guys were super helpful.. great service... prices and fast. Second time using them and will continue to
A huge thank you to Melvin and Joe for getting my car done yesterday!!! I was going in for 4 tires yesterday. I didn’t have a appt and when I got there, they were nice enough to inform me that I only needed two tires and one repaired. To me that shows honesty. I ended up having another unforeseen repair, and they offered to do it right away at a very, very awesome price! I would refer these guys to anyone! Thank you again for everything!
Stopped by there this morning to get a tire replaced. They had a car in the garage and were changing the breaks. Told me it would be an hour wait and said I was welcome to come back around then. I mentioned I lived too far away to leave and come back so I would just wait. They ended up being able to put my tire on between changing break pads on the car in the garage and got me out of there in less than 20 minutes. Great service and a great crew.
Saved my day for sure and was glad that they got me in quick and gave me a great price on a new tire. So if your car needs new sneakers please head to Rider.
Great place for tires anything (for the most part), repair (flats) of tires, balancing of tires, rotating of tires, and buy and sell tires and rims as of last years visit. A friend at the start of June 2023, said they now do custom rim colors - not positive so asking would be most helpful. Melvin, an employee, is top notch, but no matter who you get you will still get great service! Unsure of what you need? Call and ask. Never had a bad experience with them. Highly recommended for great service, prices and terrific employee's who treat people right in all aspects.
Not overly personable and changed the price they quoted me over the phone to $10 higher when I got there. But they were able to take care of me right away and did a great job. Prices are reasonable and they do a good job. I have used them twice now and have no complaints about their quality of work or timeliness.
Bought a used tire from this scumbag operation and it lasted for 5 miles before it blew up on the highway with my 2 year old son in car.
Went to take it back and now they want more money to replace it . I dont think so.
Might as well eat the tire as they wont refund. Never getting my business again.
