Does anyone else need a set of tires? I could actually use two sets right now. I'm wondering if we could pool and get a discount...

My car's stuck at the body shop waiting on a tire and a fuel door. How they finished the entire project and were left with those two items is beyond me.

We got some pretty good guotes from tirevan.net last year for on-site mount and balance plus really good prices on tires if you buy from them (no shipping fee).

Good results in the past for non group use.

It would really be sweet to have a group tire day and get a deeper discount.

I've used TireRack and TireVan :)

TireRack generally has great prices and get you the tires quickly, just be aware that you'll pay ~$80-120 for the install/balance.

TireVan gives you a installed price when you buy the tires from them. I had a RoadForce balance done and was VERY happy with the results. I would highly recommend them!

I've always had good experiences w/ Radial Tire in Silver Spring.
