looking for the best price on some 265/75/r16 where are some of your favorite online tire sites?

 

I'm in the same boat, I was checking out retreads just because of how cheap they are... treadwright.com. Other than that, I know lots of people use tirerack or discounttiredirect.

 

I ended up going to sears, it was the cheapest for me

 

I've had good luck with ebay...

 

Shipping beats the crap out of tire prices though..... even buying retreads, by the time its all said and done, you could have gotten new tires. Even getting a good price on the tires, you still have to pay for mounting/balancing, and possibly a tire disposal fee to boot (to the head.). When I looked at it, I saved less than a hundred buying online..... Better bet would be finding a good price on the tires you want, then going to a local store that does price matching.

 

Do a little bit of both. Find a local shop around you that will price match ANY tire you want. Look around online and find yourself something you like for a good cheap price then print that out and take it to the shop. I got a set of cooper zeon ltz's for 164 a tire. and that was for a 285-70-20. Normal price through the shop was 238 a tire.

 

I know a lot of people rag on getting Wal-Mart tires, but sadly I happen to work there so on top of price matching I'll also get a discount. Guess where I'm getting mine....

 

the best online website for tires and wheels i have found. http://www.ntwonline.com

 

I just recently used the BEST online tire and install site this past month.

www.tirebuyer.com

Prices beat tirerack.com

Price includes dismount of old, disposal, remount, install, etc. at a shop that you pick in your area. Presumes shops in your area have an affiliation setup.

 

I'm with Brian; I'm all about "online", but not for tires. To me it's worth the few extra bucks to just drive in, have the new tires all mounted up and balanced, probably get an alignment, and get free tire rotation, free winter changeover, and free flat repair (Town Fair Tire in Connecticut). Plus I like to support local businesses when I can.

I can see the value of the local/online combo, but there wasn't a TireBuyer dealer within 100 miles of me.
