Place to buy tires

[Gibson486]

Where is a good palce to buy tires? My dad goes to NTB, but they are so expensive. Sam's Club any good?

I like discount tire company, they usually have a pretty decent selection of good to cheap, and there awesome about fixing flats and blowouts too.

I bought mine here and just had them put on locally. Even with shipping, getting them here was significantly cheaper than anyplace local.

Do you just go to any mechanic to put the tires on?

I like Sam's Club. Reasonable prices and they will fix flats for free for the life of the tire.

That?s what I do.
If I need just one tire replaced then I might go to local tire shop.
But when I need all four I always order from Tirerack. I can usually get four tires for the price of two at Sears. And the Firestone around the corner doesn?t charge much to mount and balance them. I get the tires that I want at a good price, can?t beat that.

just bought a set of wheels and tires from tirerack. they called me before shipping the order to let me know that i may have to roll my fenders, even though the wheels ended up fitting easily and w/o incident. another vote for tire rack because they have great prices, ship promptly, and look out for the customer even if it means a no-sale!

Which is the same as America's Tire Co IIRC. I use them and am very satisfied.

The last 2 or 3 times I needed tires I've called every tire shop in town that I can find. The place with the lowest price won.

Next time, I'm going to check out TireRack. Sounds good, and if they can beat places around here, I'm all for it.

sam's or costco or walmart

Costco. they had a great deal going on a few months ago buy 3 get one free on michilin tires. I got 4 new tires for the minivan each one was $98 bucks so i saved $98.00. not bad.

depend if you want nice stuff or not (read: performance).

for regular use, I found Sear's, Walmart, and Sam's club stuff very decent. but they usually don't carry 'sporty' or low profile tires.
