I've ordered at least 6 sets of tires from Tirerack and highly recommend them. Their prices and selection are better than anything I can get around here and I usually have them the day after I order them. I know you have to get them mounted and balanced, but here in the boonies nobody even comes close to matching their prices, even taking into consideration the mounting.

But are they capable of mounting the tires without damaging the LTPWS sensors?

I have bought from the tire rack, but unless the tires are on special I can get them for close to the same pice locally.
