My whole family uses Rick and he is absolutely fabulous!! He is always very honest and we never have to worry if he is just telling us more then what is truly needed to be done on our vehicles. We absolutely refuse to take our vehicles anywhere else.

I had a front end alignment at this South City neighborhood tire shop. Fast in, fast out, and inexpensive (only $59 - cheapest I've found in the area). Most importantly, they were referred by another mechanic that I respect and they didn't try to tell me that I needed a bunch of unnecessary repairs.

Certainly one of the best places in town to take a vehicle. Rick and his staff has always been very friendly and honest with me. The work provided is always top notch, and prices are very good. I've been going there for over 12+ years and will continue to do so for years to come, I can not recommend them any higher, their work speaks for itself
Michael B,
Everyone is nice and helpful. I feel like they give me a fair price. I have been going to this place for 20 years for tires or to get car work done and will continue to use them.

I've been there four times just to buy second-hand spare tires they put the tires on for me fix my flat and treated me with respect they treated me as if I was them big money person but they treated me equal and really kindness I always will go to Bay Street tire whenever I need an auto repair are tires
Leo S,
My car broke down in Columbia Mo and I was at a loss of what to do. The mechanic in Columbia wanted to charge me $2200. I called Rick and let him know what the mechanic in Columbia was going to do and Rick said bring it in and I can fix it for much less. I got towed back from Columbia and Rick fixed my car for about $1200 less than what I was going to be charged. It's good to know I have an honest mechanic I can count on. I've been going to Bates street tire and will keep on going there. They are mechanics you can trust!

Christina T,
I highly recommend this auto shop. I've taken several of my cars here, and Rick (the owner) is a real stand-up auto mechanic who will give you a fair price and great service! He's never steered me wrong, even with me being a woman, lol. He's always given me sound, honest advice and taken extremely good care of my cars. If you need any auto service at all, please consider Bates Tire & Auto!

Terrific place. Convenient to my house, willing to take perform repairs on short notice when their workload permits, and they've never pulled any shenanigans with estimates or questionable "suggested work." Straight shooters who do what they say they'll do. Exactly the kind of place I want to do business with.
Dave T,

I have been taking my cars to bates for over 20 years. The only reason I stopped is because I moved to Florida. Now I have moved back to STL, I will be using them again.
