Default New Tires Boca Area...any Recomendations

Need New Front. Anyone Have Any Recommendations For A Good Tire Shop In Boca Raton Area? Or Is The Dealer The Best Place? Also What Is The Average Pricing For New Pair Of Fronts, Installed And Balanced. (i've Been Quoted $1100.@goodyear. For F1 Gs Emt's, Not Supercar) Tires Lasted 18500 Mi But Now Worn Out On Inside Edge. I Probably Need An Alignment Too.
Does Michelin Make A Runflat?

Call Rick @ Thunder Alley in Margate. Listed in the phone book. Mention my name. Best deal in town. He's also a GREAT GUY, and a Vette owner too!

Most areas I've been in Discount Tire had the lowest prices. Call and ask for a price.

I only let Carlos at Goodroads in Ft Lauderdale touch my cars. www.goodroads.net . Usually his pricing is very competitive on tires, but usually I preorder exactly what I want (sizes, brand) and have him install. www.tirerack.com www.onlinetires.com are two I have used without issue. You will be charged shipping, but no tax so it works out well especially if tires are bought in grouping.

I contacted ThunderAlley in Margate as closer to home when I got the Iforged, and the young lady that answered failed to have someone call me back as promised with pricing. I had gotten the referral here also, and from local Chevrolet contact. Ran over to see Carlos and was done bright and early. They are NOT open on Sundays and Mondays however.

Try S & S in Pompano. Ask for Ovi, he's the owner, mention Jeff from FAU. He's honest and reliable.

Does that work at the S & M Club in Pompano, too?
