Default Where to buy tires other than tire rack

Nothing against them just since they put a warehouse in georgia there is sales tax here and it kills the savings. Just wondering if there are any other similar places to purchase them.

They're the best for tires. For wheels and tires they run a tad high, Discount Tire (America's Tire) is better there.

DiscountTireDirect also has a slightly different assortment. I purchased some track tires from there, and blew off all of the road hazard stuff, and significantly beat every other price I could find (on Falken Azenis RT-615s).

I always check multiple vendors. TireRack has good prices.

Our addition of a WH in GA means we can service just about anywhere in the country in two days. Sorry you have to pay tax now! Hopefully even with tax we can still be competitive.
