They are deep in the cut, blink and you can miss them. But very great and affordable work! I'm glad I was in the area and saw their sign.

Questionable Practices – I went to Chicagoland Tires for a wheel alignment and to replace the rear rotors and brake pads. Prior to this visit, I had an oil change at Honda Libertyville, where I was informed that the rear brakes were at 3mm and needed replacement, while the front brakes were still at 8mm and in good condition. I attached a picture of this report.
I arrived around 8:10 AM and asked the owner to assess the vehicle and let me know what actually needed to be done. I mistakenly told the owner at Chicagoland Tires that the front brakes might be at 6mm but said they may not need replacement. Unfortunately, the communication and transparency from that point onward were disappointing.
Shortly after, the owner informed me that six wheel studs had broken while removing the wheels and blamed it on poor work by a previous shop—either Honda or someone else. I was left unsure whether this was truly the case, but I had no way to validate it. I was charged $47.94 for the new studs and nuts, which I accepted out of caution.
While inspecting the front wheels (which did not need brake work), the owner convinced me to replace the front rotors and brake pads as well, claiming it was the right time since they were already working on the area. I agreed under the impression that he was doing me a favor—only to find out later that this decision cost me heavily.
There was no other work on the front wheels apart from wheel removal for alignment. The rear wheels required replacement of rotors and pads, and wheel alignment. When I was handed a bill of nearly $930, I was shocked. I got the price down based on our agreement of $350 from their website. The alignment, however, was charged at $85, which was $35 more than the website.
The owner tried to justify the price by claiming he waived two hours of labor as it was 12:00 PM and I arrived at 8:10 AM, which was simply not true—the team didn’t even begin working on the brakes until around 10:30 AM, after parts were delivered. From what I observed, the actual work time was less than two hours. Also, that could have been less than an hour if the brake job on the rear wheel had been done.
I had gone there based on a referral from Sam’s One Stop Auto, whose owner is a trusted friend. Back in August 2019, the same job (excluding alignment) on both front and rear brakes had cost me around $470. This experience was the exact opposite—unclear communication, questionable upcharges, and misleading explanations.
Just to add, i received invoice but no pre and post inspection report on my car be it brakes, or wheel alignment.
In hindsight, the shop should have just replaced the rear brakes and rotors, as originally needed, and left the front brakes alone. Instead, I left feeling misled, overcharged, and taken advantage of. I cannot recommend them based on this experience.
Just for the owner, i personally wrote a reference for you on Honda Libertyville review and you let me down.

I took my BMW for a wheel alignment here and when I got it back I found that the steering wheel was off center. The technician doesn’t speak English well and could not explain the alignment report to me. I also did t get a pre report of how the wheels were prior to doing the alignment.

Ce got a wheel alignment and hot quoted $1200 worth of work! Basicly told me u wasn't gonna make it another week on my ball joints and tire rod ends, scared me so bad I took the street home from Addison Illinois to the east side of Chicago. Had me afraid to go over a bump and turn a corner. I will never understand why when mechanics see a woman they do them like that. I already knew what was wrong with my car but they made it out to be sooooooo bad. I was even told to go buy a new car immediately...lmao. My baby was a blessing to me, I don't have a car note so all this fixing her up is my note for now, he'll the car is 19yrs old and it needs some TLC, When I get her right I won't have no worries.
