Bye bye Tire Rack? A new sheriff in town?
I've bought all my tires from Tire Rack for the past 15-20 years. I like the convenience of being able to have the tires shipped to my house, and pulling the wheels off my car myself if I want (no squashed oil lines, no buggered up alloy lug nuts, no lug nuts pneumatically tightened to 3,000 lbs, etc).
Plus, I've found their prices to be the best, or at least close.
However, I tried a new place (new to me, I'd never heard of them), tires-easy.com.
Their website isn't quite a nice as TR, esp. the checkout process, but wow, their prices are great. They are smart to be in Oregon, so there is never any sales tax on their transactions. The biggest difference between them and TR is the shipping cost, tires-easy charges quite a bit less. And, I don't know how they ship so fast, I couldn't believe it when the tires were on my doorstep.
Oh, and they have a much larger selection (sizes/brands) than TR.
Just passing a good experience along, I was very pleasantly surprised.
