Problem with buying from tirerack is mounting costs. After buying my rims and purchasing non runflat tires from tirerack, cheapest mount could find was $45 wheel.rworkman98 said:Only $361.00 if you buy from TireRack.com.But then you have to pay to mount them too (usually $15-20 per tire)
Balance also included in $45. Bay Area all tire shops charged extra if you didnot buy tires from them.rworkman98 said:Now that this thread is completely off track... :sorry:
For non-runflats, mounting should be no more than $15 / wheel. Did you try their "preferred business partners" from the tirerack website? For runflats, it may be a little more. I bought some tires from them about 3 weeks ago, but I just mounted them myself.
Also found out most tire shops will match tirerack.com price if you bring in tirerack quote
Which tires did you go with? For all around use Pilot sports have worked out for merworkman98 said:I guess it's just more $$ around your area. I agree on matching. That's what I did for my Corvette tires. Discount Tire was able to match the price, and they included mount and balance. But when I bought tires for the Grand Prix last month, noone else was in the same ballpark, so I mounted and balanced them myself, since I had access to a machine.
BTW, whoever split this thread from the original one, good idea! :cheers: (Thought I don't get the "bicycle tires" reference)
