I've had good luck w/ them also. Only problem is their list of installers around our area is not correct. If you have somewhere you can get them installed for cheap, then it is well worth it.

Yeah that's a great point. I forget sometimes about that cuz I gots the hook-up on the install If you can call around you may find some where that will do it for you for less than some of the "well know" tire shops.

got mine from there and had them drop shipped to an installation place. Worked out well (although the people at the installation place were @$$holes). Unless you know of a good installation place near by, I'd say go with America Tire Co./Discount Tire the prices are higher, but they include installation so it comes out to about the same

just bought my dunlop snows from them earlier this year (well, late 2005), only problem was the fact that they were backordered, and that wasn't their fault.

I have bought a total of 6 complete tire sets from them over the last 5 years or so for my 3 cars and they have been great. Good prices and I have a guy here who pops them on for $7.50 each.
I'd recommend them.
I bought a set of four Yokohama Avid V4s's for my WRX on Saturday and they were delivered today. $369 including shipping.

The great thing about tirerack is that you don't have to pay the environmental fee's that most tire places charge you, which can up the price allot. They have the best selection by far of any tire place that I've known, and really fair prices. You may be able to find it cheaper elsewhere, but tirerack ships them the best and has the most tires IN STOCK. Also, I've had questions for their customer service and for america's/discount tire company online, I've found tirerack to be excellent when compared with others.

Tire Rack is still in business.

If they werrent a leader in internet sales of Tires/Rims they'd be out the door.

I've ordered from them before, just tires, and a set of tires and rims, if you order tires and rims they'll put them on and balance them before they ship.

I'd order again, and probably will.
