Where is best place to buy tires?

I would like new Michelean tires for my truck. Where is best place to buy them?

Discount Tire usually has decent prices. You could go to Michelins website and look for distributors in your area and then check prices.

I really love Simpletire.com- They went to free shipping a month or two ago: and they will ship to your home or to a local tire changer near you- they have a whole list- and you can get them put on there. (you have to pay for mounting and balancing, of course- and the usual fees...) I have used that service a few times, and works nicely...

Just a customer's recommendation, NFI...

Before you internet order tires, call around and get mounting and balancing prices locally. The last time I tried, my locals wanted $32/each to mount, $32/each to balance. A place about 45 minutes away was the best at $100 to mount and balance all 4.. Of course it was cheaper to buy locally, I'm sure that was not by mistake. I used to be able to get all 4 mounted and balanced for $32 total.

Ive been using America's tire/discount tire for the last few purchases, their prices have been untouchable.

I agree. My truck has aftermarket wheels, & not one tire shop in my area had the tire size I needed. I picked the most affordable all-season tires I could find, & NTB ordered them from 2 states away, then charged me plenty to mount & balance them....

Most tire shops can usually get (order) what ever you want. Just get the mounted balanced out the door price. I am fortunate I can mount and balance my own so I do shop around. But I have a tire shop about 20 mins away that is very competitive to the online prices.
