Mostly just the smaller sizes, but significant savings at that.

Was looking at these last week for $167 per tire for my car, now $122.

I bought a pair 245/35/18's about 2 weeks ago for $270 a piece. Now they are $224 each. Fortunately, TireRack refunded me the $92 difference

Thanks for the heads-up Dustin. Those are great prices.

FWIW I can match these sale prices as well.

If I were local Jeb, I would order from you for sure.

Unfortunately, the local DTD would matched them locally for me too, but they tacked on even more expensive mounting than was normal, combine that with the sales tax being 3x what shipping was from TR... well, I won't go that way again for a non-club supporter.

What were they charging for the install? All of our stores should be the same ($12). About the only time I charge more than that is for really low profile 20 inch plus stuff. The rack averages about $10 in freight per tire, so really in the end the difference is the tax, but some folks prefer to deal with someone local. If you ever have an issue, just let me know what store you are dealing with...

How does $27 a tire grab you? Yeah, something about them being 18's and 19's. Not fun. Sad thing is that I could drive the tires to you for and it would still be cheaper for me to have you mount them

That does seem rather high unless they were roadforcing them, in which case you can always pass.
