yeah all i did was call them Since gas prices are outrageous here in california. I dont get it i find Discount tires prices on the internet for cheaper shipped to my house then at the store ? I called them and asked about a certain tire and they gave me a higher price then what there selling it for on the internet. They claim that its only 10 bucks per tire for them to install if i buy there tires on the internet. plus they have free shipping they say. Should i just do that then ? Sorry guys i have never bought anything off the internet before and i ALWAYS get screwed when i buy tires. thats why i have all the question's. Thanks ....
I just replaced the stock Goodyears with Sumitomo HTRZ II from Discount. They beat Tire Rack's price (they are both here in town). $99 per tire, 275/40/17. Happy with them so far. Also got the free replacement certificates. That turned out to be a good thing, because 3 weeks later an unfortunate incident with a section of curbing ruined the 2 passenger side tires. They replaced free. My wife is never gonna let me live that one down!
