In Rockford, parts stores usually open early and close late seven days a week, while salvage yards keep shorter hours and may charge a small entry fee. Across Illinois, dealer service is the safest route for recall work and warranty repairs, which are free, and for software-heavy jobs on newer cars. Fuel prices change daily and vary block by block, so the listing's location and hours matter more than the brand. For rentals, reserve ahead on weekends and check what insurance the agency requires.
Hours are published for 6 days a week. On most of those days it is open 9 am–6 pm. It is closed on Sunday. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible.

Rockford is in Illinois, in the Midwest, where summers are warm, winters are cold and snowy, and most errands are done by car; businesses keep steady year-round hours with the usual holiday changes. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Rockford follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

I decided to stop in just to see if the vehicles were as nice as advertised. Tired of the big mega dealers. I met Terry, very down to earth and knowledgeable. Looked at the vehicle, very clean, took it for a drive, drove like new. No high pressure. Ended up buying the vehicle. All American Company. If You are looking for the best used vehicles, give them a try.

I’ve been going to this dealership for about a decade now and they’ve always been great to work with. Over the years, I’ve had many interactions with both sales and service, and everyone has consistently been polite, professional, and genuinely helpful. In 2019, I bought a van from them, and Brian really worked with me to find financing that fit my situation at the time. The dealership took excellent care of my vehicle whenever I brought it in for service. I recently bought another vehicle from them, and once again they were patient and accommodating through all my questions, requests, and concerns. Terry was especially very patient with me and definitely made the situation much less stressful! After I got the vehicle home, an issue popped up unexpectedly, and they were quick to get it repaired without hassle. It’s not easy to find a dealership you can trust long term, but Wheels by RT has earned that trust from me over many years. I definitely appreciate the way they treat their customers and would recommend them to anyone looking for a good car-buying and service experience

I had a great experience at Wheels by RT from start to finish. The staff was friendly, professional, and never pushy. They took the time to answer all my questions and made sure I felt comfortable throughout the entire process. Everything was transparent, straightforward, and stress-free—which is not something you can always say about buying a car. You can tell they take great pride in making sure they have quality vehicles on their lot and they treat you like family. I’m extremely happy with my purchase and would definitely recommend this dealership to anyone looking for a smooth and positive car-buying experience.

Wheel’s by RT will be the only place I buy a car for the rest of my life. Not only was I able to buy my own car there, but they were also an incredible partner when they sold a van to our school district when we were in need. I couldn’t love either any more that I do! Brooke, Rich, and everyone else at the dealership truly does treat you like family. If you’re looking for a car for yourself or your company, don’t go anywhere else.
