I got good service, really good price plus a rebate. Just remove all the play pretty caps and locks before you take the car in. Ask for discounts.

Don't have a Discount Tire where I live so I ordered online.

Great price and service on the Michelin Pilot Sports I bought for my C5.

Wow... now I see why some folks have tires shipped to their front door.

With 3 stores within 15 miles of me, I thought they were everywhere. Now I see there are many states that they don't have stores in.

I haven't bought tires from Discount Tire as of yet, but I will next week.
My tires on the vette are about shot and they are seven years old. Time for some new shoes. I had a list of four different tires that I was interested in. So, Saturday I took my list and visited four tire shops around town. Handed each one a list and asked for prices. Of course all had different prices on their tires. The one shop that impressed me was discount tire. They had the lowest prices, they where knowledgeable about corvettes and answered all my questions to my satisfaction. They said if I find a price lower somewhere else that they would match it. I also checked out the work area in the shop. Everything was orderly, clean and in place.

They will have my business

Before I went shopping I checked the tire prices on line as well, so that I had an idea of what to expect.
