    best place to get tires

    my car is on bald mismatched all seasons and ive got a set of rims in need of tires so i figured id kill two birds with one stone. lookin for some links or advice on getting the best price on some tires for my car. im leaning towards the falken ziex in a 205 55 15 variety. ive seen them go for about 330 shipped but i only want to be certain i am getting the best price possible

    thanks in advance.

    tirerack.com - That's the place I usually order from, shipping is cheap & fast and prices are very hard to beat. For tires they don't carry, discounttiredirect.com - same cheap / quick shipping with great prices.

      Tire Rack sucks. I don't even think they carry Falkens.

      I prefer edge racing.

        Discount Tire Direct is retiring, but check out our partners at Tire Rack! With tires and wheels for virtually every vehicle make and model, Tire Rack is your new source for the best prices and selection for online and mail-order purchases.


        Free shipping forever. The cost of my tires shipped came out the same as from edge racing with shipping, and they are definitely the cheapest place around.

        I got free hub rings as well that were WAY better than another company I stupidly bought them from.

        There was even a discrepancy with my credit card and they handled it extremely professionally, and I never had to wait more than 2 minutes to talk to a real person when that happened. I will go back for sure many times over.

        HELL, they even have $25 off when you order 4 tires through their online store now until the 17th, and its instant, not that mail-in refund shit.

        Okay enough sounding like a commercial, go for it.

          Costco will match prices and will beat Tirerack and order tires for you.

          Edge racing has piss poor customer service. Bought from them three times and all three times the tires were a week late as the were not in stock and I ordered from them due to they said "In Stock order now"

              Figure you don't need new valve stems since most tire shops are cool and toss those in free, and if you dont get the replacement warranty things, its awful cheap with shipping compared to anywhere else...

              I wonder if Costco will do that for me from that site too, good idea there...

                yea i should check costco too good idea i think imma ditch the warranty and if i do get it i'll just get one i mean how often does anybody get more than one flat at a time? and if i DO get in a situation where that does happen i think my tires would be the least of my worries lol

                    Only wish I had the warranty once. Took a grade 8.8 lag bolt thru a 150 mile old RT615 and cracked a one of my Kosei K1's.

                      I have actually used discount tire direct with good results also.

                      They got me hub rings when tire rack wouldn't.
