Don Rucker Tire & Auto

Jan 06, 2025

I was a little nervous about bringing my truck here since I hadn’t done business with them before. I was very impressed with this shop! Tab did a great job diagnosing my truck and even told me which parts were still in good shape and didn’t need replacing. His communication throughout the process was outstanding. He took a lot of time out to work with my warranty company as well. I’d highly recommend this shop and I’ll certainly come back.

I took my Ford Bronco Sport in for new brakes after almost 90,000 miles. They got my car in and out in 1.5 hours and were so friendly and courteous. Great family owned business with great service.

Myself and my whole family come to Rucker for anything car related and they’re always very helpful and find a solution quickly! We come for oil, inspections, nails in tires, tires change on my BMW and every experience is fast and easy. If you live in Lake Travis, you have to support local and use Don Rucker Tire!!

The staff at Don Rucker go above and beyond to help with all our automotive needs. They have fit me in for same day service on multiple occasions and are always fast and efficient. I HIGHLY recommend Don Rucker Automotive!

This garage was top notch! Took my Jeep to another shop, not even 1 car in the work bay. They told me they would need theJeep dropped off for the day for them to diagnose the problem. I drove right up the street to Don Rucker’s - they were amazing - within a hour they had the problem diagnosed and fixed! Emilio was the tech and he was GREAT!!! He advised me that one of my headlights needed replacing - before I left he had fixed that issue as well. I would highly recommend this garage and will be back.

Always bring my trucks here and have always had excellent service. From oil changes,inspections,new tires etc. All the employees and owner seem to really care for their customers.

I have dealt with the folks at Don Rucker Tire for almost 40 years, going back to their days in Houston. I have relied on them to maintain my vehicle, my kids’ vehicles and the vehicles at the places where I have worked. They are honest, fair, courteous and trustworthy. When they say I need something fixed, it’s real. And when I don’t need something fixed or when a cheaper tire will work just fine, they tell me that as well. This is a third generation family-owned business, and it feels like it every time I walk into their shop. They care about their customers, their community and above all, the name on the building. They take great pride to guard the reputation they have built, and I’m grateful for the service they have provided to me and my family over the years. Great people. Highly recommend.

Always great service. They have maintained and repaired my cars for decades. They were so quick today I didn’t get any work done in the waiting area. 😎

I’ve used them for 15 years, and find them honest, prompt and reasonable. If I don’t have warranty work, these guys are my first choice.

Awesome team here at Don Rucker! New to the area and I used them for a couple of inspections. Last week I needed a full set of tires mounted and balanced on my 370z and also had 2 leaking tires on my QX60. All turned around in a couple of hours!

My personal experience with Don Ruckers shop on 3 separate occasions have been nothing but great. Their labor rate is competitive, they do great work, and I can tell they have invested in keeping talent within their company. The employees have all been very kind to me and other folks I’ve seen. Their desk representative Jake is a very cool dude, and Don is often at the shop and is always great to see. I personally recommend Don Rucker to folks, friends and family! For a shop, they do true and honest work. Hard to find in Austin!

Been here multiple times and the guys are honest, fair priced and fast. Recommend to anyone.

For a Tire and Auto shop, they are highly incompetent at what they do. My wheels were taken there to get tire swapped and when I got it back they were scraped and all 4 sides. At first I understand if mistakes happen but these guys tried to deny any claims that it was their fault and wouldn’t own up to their mistakes. They made it extremely difficult to find a resolution for their mistake. Wasted my own time going to many places for quotes and apparently most of the quotes were too high for what they wanted to pay. At the end of the day, we settled on a much lower quote and I did have to pay out of pocket for the rest to finally get them refinished. I’d trust Discount Tire more than I would with this place, at least they would own up and make it right completely.

Badass truck tire spot, killer rims, and friendly folk. Helped me find my way even though I didn't buy tires from them.

Feb 06, 2024

Friendly, professional, they gave me my options and were very helpful and informed, great place for all your custom car and truck accessories, thanks for all your help, I am impressed

Feb 06, 2024

Great for your Cowboy Cadillac. They have everything from tires to lift accessories. Tab and the entire staff are wonderful, old Austin style of hospitality and service.

I called them and asked for the leveling kit installation on my truck and the guy called is like I don’t wanna a do it And he hung up , like what kind of service is that

Feb 06, 2024

I can't speak highly enough about the fantastic work done by this company. They completely transformed my Tundra with a leveling kit, bigger tires, Method rims, and Amp Research power running boards. Their pricing is incredibly competitive, and the quality of their work is top-notch. The staff is not only friendly but also highly knowledgeable. I can confidently say that this company has become my go-to for all things related to my Tundra. If you're looking for expert work, great prices, and a friendly team, this is the place to go.

I had two tires replaced and found their service to be terrific and their prices very fair. They seem to be trustworthy and didn't try any high pressure sales tactics. Update: just got service for a slow leak tire. Couldn't be happier with the service and price. Solid, trustworthy people work here.

I recently visited Don Rucker Tire & Auto, and I couldn't have been more impressed! Jake went above and beyond to keep me updated throughout the entire repair process of my vehicle which made me feel at ease, knowing that my car was in capable hands. He took the time to patiently explain the repairs needed, without overwhelming me with technical jargon, which I greatly appreciated. The turnaround time was incredible, with my car ready in a speedy three days (which included other routine maintenance services by the way). I'm grateful I didn't take my car to the dealership, as it would have undoubtedly taken much longer. A heartfelt thank you to Jake and the entire team at Don Rucker for their professionalism, efficiency, and top-notch service. 10/10 recommend. I'll definitely be back!

I stumbled upon this hidden gem when I needed a new tire quickly, but little did I know, it's not your average tire shop! From tire changes to mind-blowing modifications, they've got it all. The expertise here goes beyond expectations, and the staff is friendly as well. This is THE spot!

I took my truck in for a brake job. After they worked on it, the brakes started squealing very loudly. They said they must've gotten bad pads and they would need a few hundred dollars more for better quality brake pads. They said that because of Covid, the quality of the brake pads had gone down. This never made sense to me since I didn't hear other cars out on the road with squealing brakes. Seems like they would be everywhere if that were the case. I was desperate to take care of this very annoying issue, though, so I paid them an extra $325 to install the new "higher quality" pads and the brakes still squealed like crazy. They ultimately told me that there was nothing they could do about it and left me with horrible squealing brakes.

Feb 06, 2024

So far, I’m pretty happy with these guys. My truck is a fairly rare import, and while they are not completely experienced to work on this vehicle, the young mechanic that worked on my truck was very well versed in the older style components in my vehicle. They pointed out things they are able to work on and things they cannot. They also referred me to other shops that can work on some of the specific issues that I need to address. Parts for my vehicle are hard to source, so they’re working with me to make sure I source the right parts and are willing to make sure they’re installed to their high standards. Will update / add to this review as the work is completed.

Feb 06, 2024

The only place I may take my vehicles!

Feb 06, 2024

These guys were awesome. Getting close to closing time and we rolled in with a leak. They dropped what they were doing and got us fixed in a few minutes. Great job guys.

Feb 06, 2024

They really take good care of you. They listened to your needs. What a great team.

Feb 06, 2024

We've come by for many services with different vehicles we own. They are always time and quality efficient.
