Default Thank you Tire Rack!

No affiliation, honest, and I don't usually like to give reviews. But damn, they do a good job, did for me, anyway.

Although I like to support local businesses, the price differential was so huge that I felt like I had no choice but to go with TR. So I ended up with four brand new Fuzion (Bridgestone) tires, Z-rated, mounted and balanced for about $650.

I use my 964 as a daily driver, so I want my tires to last as long as possible. This is my second set of these Fuzion tires, and for the money I think they are awesome.

I like Tirerack.com too...they did a good job for me also.
How many miles did you get on your last set of tires?

Thanks,
Kevin

Their service is really amazing. I like to support the local economy when I can... but TR makes tire buying too easy. I bought rims and tires... shipped to my door in a couple days, the amazing thing is that all the tires were inflated to the correct PSI?!

Got about 20,000 miles on the last set of Fuzions. Replaced all four tires.

I bought a set of tires and had them shipped to where my car was for installation before I flew to pick it up. Great service and price. They even called me back to make sure I was aware that the size I ordered was not the factory size.

What did you pay for installation, alignment, balancing etc. vs cost of tires/shipping?

Cheers,
