Tire Purchase Online No, this is not another thread of what type of tire is best. I think I am going to go with Pirelli's becasue I have to drive in snow as well as dry. I don't race so I think this is good for what I want...treadware. My question is, I have found some for 140 apiece from tirerack.com or something and they have the road hazard program thing you can add for 70 bucks. Is this a wise investment or should i just order the tires? I am open to all opinions.

The only question on tire hazzard, is "where can it be fixed?"
If you can go to a local shop and get reimbursed, it is OK insurance.
If you have to send the tire back . . . .
Extended warrantees, road hazzards . . . Just a safety, usually for me if I have purchased it, never use it, if I don't get it . . something goes wrong, Murphy's Law.

I would contact Discount Tire and let them know the price tirerack is offering. They will come close and be a bit over but they will mount and balance the tires. That is what I did and paid (if my memory serves) like 160/tire.
Also, are you going with the Pirelli PZero Nero? Those are what I have and they do pretty good at the track for a street tire as well.

yea, give us a shot. 
The warranty we sell is very much worth it. If you are near a Discount Tire store...get it fixed/replaced there. If you are not near one, we'll send you a new one. If you are on a road trip and have to have one right then, we'll reimburse you. Its good stuff!
