I personally have not had great luck with mechanics, countless times have I found myself being overcharge for bad work. I been a customer with them for a year no issues I had brakes tires and oil change done with them, oil changes is cheaper then average , brakes average price and tires were slightly more expensive then average. What I appreciate most is that the do not try and sell me on repairs I don’t need.

I did my own brake job, however on the last rear brake the caliper slide bolt was locked and rusted. Of course it broke off because that is what happens when I attempt things that should be done by pros. I was able to get it to Matthews on Sunday night and they fixed it on Monday for me which was very kind and did it for a great price. Great crew and very pleased with John for replacing the caliper and checking over the rest of my Jeep. Thank you Matthews !!

Screw in a tire ... not good. Unrepairable. Easy to get the replacement ordered on Friday afternoon and got it installed first thing on Monday. 25 years of happy service. Just another reason why they get my business.

Signs Your Brake Rotors May Need Attention

If your brakes don’t feel right while driving around Green Bay, especially in stop-and-go traffic on streets like Lombardi Avenue or Mason Street, it could be your rotors. Catching the problem early can prevent larger repairs and help you stay safe on the road. Watch out for these red flags:

  • Brake pedal or steering wheel vibration: Often caused by warped or uneven rotor surfaces.
  • Squealing or grinding noises: Worn-down pads can damage the rotors, leading to scoring or metal-on-metal contact.
  • Decreased stopping power: Heat-damaged or worn rotors can cause a soft brake pedal or longer stop times.
  • Rust, grooves or discoloration: Visible signs like these usually mean it’s time for resurfacing or replacement.
  • Brake warning light: While it can mean different things, when paired with other symptoms, rotors may be the issue.

Unsure if it’s serious? Stop by Matthews Tire in Green Bay for a full brake inspection. We’ll assess the condition of your rotors and help you choose the safest, most cost-effective solution.

What to Expect During Your Brake Rotor Inspection

When you visit Matthews Tire in Green Bay, we take a detailed, no-pressure approach to checking your brake system. Our ASE-certified technicians focus on safety, cost-effectiveness and helping you understand exactly what’s going on. Here’s what happens during a typical rotor inspection:

  1. Inspect brake pads and rotors: We’ll look for uneven wear, scoring, heat damage or warping, and check if your pads still have life left.
  2. Measure rotor thickness: If the rotors meet safe specs, we’ll let you know if resurfacing is a smart and safe alternative to replacement.
  3. Evaluate calipers and fluid: We examine the entire braking system to catch anything else that could affect performance or safety.
  4. Explain your options clearly: We provide honest recommendations without pressure or upsells. You’ll know exactly what’s needed and why.

Not every brake issue means replacement. We’ll help you find the safest, most budget-friendly solution for your situation.

Frequently Asked Brake Rotor Replacement Questions

How long does brake repair take at your Green Bay shop?

A full brake repair typically takes between 1.5 to 3 hours, though the exact time can vary depending on the condition of your braking system and the type of vehicle. A standard job that includes replacing brake pads and rotors on one axle (either front or rear) generally takes about 1.5 to 2 hours. If your vehicle also needs caliper replacement or brake fluid bleeding, the repair can take closer to 3 hours or more.

Several factors can affect how long a brake repair takes, including rusted or seized parts, high-performance or luxury vehicle requirements, and whether any diagnostic work is needed (like checking the ABS system). While some brake repair can go quickly, it’s a good idea to plan for a half-day visit, just in case additional issues are discovered once the wheels come off.

Our shop is located on Oneida Street, so it’s easy to drop your vehicle off and go shopping at Bay Park Square, catch a movie at Marcus Bay Park Cinema, or visit the National Railroad Museum.

Is there anything about driving in Green Bay that causes faster brake wear?
Yes, stop-and-go traffic on roads like Mason Street or Military Avenue can wear your brakes out more quickly. This is especially true near high-traffic intersections like Main Street and Mason Street or the I-41 and West Mason Street roundabout, both known for frequent congestion and crashes. Shopping areas like Bay Park Square, the Ashland Avenue and Walnut Street intersection and the stadium district on game days also require more braking, leading to faster pad wear over time. Additionally, navigating the Leo Frigo Memorial Bridge during heavy traffic or poor weather can contribute to increased brake use due to its steep grade and traffic volume.
Can I just replace my brake pads without replacing rotors in Green Bay?
Sometimes, yes, but not always. In Green Bay’s climate, rotors often rust or warp due to winter salt and moisture. We’ll inspect them and let you know if they’re still within spec or if new pads would wear unevenly on damaged rotors.
Is it a good idea to replace brakes before winter driving in Green Bay?
Definitely. With Green Bay’s long winters and heavy salt use, worn brake pads can become a problem fast. Having fresh pads gives you better stopping power when driving near slick intersections or getting on and off Highway 41 during icy conditions.
How do you know if you need brakes replaced in Green Bay’s winter conditions?
Winter weather around Green Bay, especially the snow, salt and cold, can take a toll on your brakes. If you notice squeaking, grinding or it’s taking longer to stop, it’s worth getting them checked out before the roads get worse.
What should you do if my brakes feel soft while driving around Green Bay?
If your brake pedal feels spongy or takes longer to stop, especially near busy areas like Main Street and Mason Street, you should have them looked at right away. That could mean air in the lines or a more serious issue.
How close are you to Green Bay neighborhoods like De Pere, Allouez or Hobart for brake repair?
We’re conveniently located in Green Bay, just minutes from De Pere, Allouez, Bellevue, Hobart and other nearby neighborhoods. Whether you’re coming from the west side near Lambeau Field and Lombardi Avenue, or the east side along Main Street or Monroe Avenue, our shop is easy to reach. We’re also close to Highway 41 and Highway 172, making it convenient for drivers from De Pere, Howard and Bellevue. With local landmarks like Bay Park Square, the Resch Center and Titletown nearby, you’ll have plenty of options to explore or run errands while we take care of your brake repair.
Is your shop close to public transportation if I leave my car for brake repair?
Yes, our Green Bay location is served by Green Bay Metro Transit. Several bus routes run near major roads like Mason Street, Military Avenue and Oneida Street. This makes it easy to catch a ride while we work on your car. Whether you’re heading downtown, to Bay Park Square or running errands around the stadium district, public transportation offers a convenient way to get around without missing a beat.
