They've been in Hinckley forever. We have a cabin a few miles away, and they have saved us several times, going back to the '60s.

I only give it one star because I have to in order to leave a review. I'm disabled and stop to see about a tire. He put a new tire on but didn't balance the tire because of his out of date equipment. Plus he scratched and took chunks out of the rim. I contacted the attorney General. He sent letters to Slim asking what he was going to do about my rim. Slims did not answer the Attorney General. Now I'm taking him to court and can use all the evidence that the Attorney General gave me against him. This is what I call a hack shop. I was once ASE certified in Auto Body and Auto Mechanic. Look up the Truth And Repair Act. If any shop like this rips you off.

Thank goodness for Slim's. Nothing worse than having a great weekend and the catching something in your tire on the way back to the city. The guy that helped us was the nicest and although he couldn't fix the tire he sold us a used one and got us back on the toad within an hour! So, so grateful that we didn't end up with a flat on the Interstate ironically as we pass a vehicle and a couple on the side of the freeway getting a tow. Ugh! If you find yourself in Hinckley with car probs, I highly recommend Slim's!

Got a flat tire on the boat trailer about 6 miles out of town with no spare. Unhooked the boat and went to Slim's. The guy working loaned me a 4-way and a sledge hammer (to "fix" the fender).Went back to the boat trailer and removed the tire. Went back to Slim's and he put a new tire on the rim in a matter of minutes. He also loaned me a jack stand to help make the situation safer when I put the new tire on. Eventually made it back to Slim's with the boat trailer where I requested to have the other tire replaced as well. The guy was so helpful and I could not be more appreciative for such great service in a stressful situation. Would recommend Slim's to everyone who needs some tire service and also guidance in my case.

Highly recommend! My daughters and I were traveling to Rapid City, SD to take my oldest to college when we hit heavy rain just north of Hinckley. We quickly discovered that our wipers were not functioning properly and immediately began to search online for a repair shop to help us. Slim's Service able to get us in immediately and quickly figured out that our issue was due to the wiper arms being incorrectly installed when another repair shop replaced a cracked windshield earlier this week. It was a quick repair and we were safely on our way thanks to the helpful hands at the repair shop!Lesson learned-always check the functionality of your wipers after windshield repair work, no matter what.

David picked up my daughter and her car when it needed towing and service. He was understanding and helped her hen she was upset about it. He fixed her car quickly and his service throughout the experience was awesome. I'm grateful he helped her. Thank you.

My car began to misfire on the way to Duluth. I stopped at Slim's, where the mechanic replaced the coil pack, but the care still misfired. I asked him to try a new spark plug instead, but he refused. I had to pay for parts and labor, despite him refusing to fix my car. Ultimately I got my car towed to another shop where they replaced the spark plug and my car ran good as new. TLDR: Don't waste you money here.
