I have been buying from Tire Rack for years. They are sometimes offering free shipping.

Tire Rack is good to research, but prices may be higher then other places. I like Discount Tire Direct

Checking them out now.

I need a matching set of 4. Volvo. AWD system was *supposed* to have burned itself out by now; removed driveshaft, shop said they took it out (as I told them to. 6 bolts and 6 bolts, 4 screws for exhaust. Tried without a lift..... Hahahahahahahaha. Shop had it out in two hours - rust!!!!! ... Said it didn't move after. I find that suspicious. Put it back in.... Car has two almost same tires on front and rear... But different... Yeah...)

Cheapest on TR seems $60 a pair. Free shipping? Hahahahaha... Gotta get them on the car.

I think this is the month. I'm sure the car will thank me. Four equal tires should help.

The engine and trans are as strong as 8 Clydesdales pulling a massive wagon. It's that AWD that needs these tires .......

^ Yeah! This link is the one.

First result was $40 a tire.

The local used places here,they are perfect for "change one tire at time..." Or, asi have tried, have each axle matched. Change two at once.

That doesn't work with an AWD Volvo..... And I have tried ..

Tire Rack has its place.... ONline...Sams club is the place to buy tires. I have bought tires from Sams for 30 years and will go no where else. Best prices. best service. Why order online, deliver tires to a shop to have them put on your car? Too many hands in the pot.

How do you think your Sam's tire get to your Sam's shop and then your car?

tirerack depends, if you are in in the city, then dont bother, you can find tires cheaper for the same brand.



if you live in a small town, then give them serious consideration.


if you live out in the sticks, then they are probably the best buy for you.
