Hi all. Need to buy tires for my wife's care and even though I have been here for a little over four years, I am yet to track down a good place to buy tires.
I've actually gotten the best deals at the Firestone place on Williamson, near the Lowe's Foods. Bought a couple of sets there at a very fair price and been happy with the service any other time I've been in there. They'll send coupons as well after you visit the first time. Also bought a couple of sets from Discount Tire but the experience has never been that great and neither is the price IMO.
Tire Kingdom is an awful place; I'd rather ride on a flat tire than stop there.
I used to buy all of my tires (Cooper brand) from Accel Tire on North Main Street near town hall. But, I hear they've recently given up that location and it's now the new home of Mooresville Service Center.
If Accel doesn't have a new shop in town, then I'll go up to their other shop off Garner Bagnal Blvd in Statesville.
That's how much I like them. They're not a fancy shop, but they do a good job at good prices.

This sounds like what I have been looking for since I moved to NC. When I lived in VA, there was a little locally owned shop that I always went to for everything. They were fair, honest, and, cheap, and very good at working on automobiles; never any complaints.
When we first moved here, my wife took one of our vehicles to Griffin Brothers to have some work done to it while I was working out of town. As far as I knew, it only needs brake pad and possibly rotors. They ended up putting pads, rotors, axle joints, and a few other things in the front end of the car which by the way was only 6 years old. I almost had a heart attack when she told me she paid them just shy of $2400!! Even if the car did need everything they did to it, all that work at the place in VA would have cost me $800 tops.

I think I will end up going to Firestone after looking at all the places you suggested as well as few more. They seem to have the best price for good tires.
I have gotten a really good deal at Tire Kingdom. I do figure out what tire I want to buy before I show up at any of the tire stores. The Hook Goodyear Stores are not bad either.
