Where does everyone go to get tires?

Online?
tirerack
discounttiredirect
jegs

Locally?
Merchants
Sears
Joe Bob's tire shop

Where else? Is there a place online that carries the brands that tirerack doesn't? Is there some end-all-be-all site that I'm missing?

I always buy my tires from tirerack. Thats only b/c I can get them mounted for cheap though.

Shipping has went up alot at tirerack so I would say it wont benefit me as much. :?

I bought mine from a local mechanic because the Nokian Vatiivas weren't available on Tire Rack.

After traveling all over the many tire shops in the Denver area. I found a Goodyear dealer, just a stones throw away from my apartment. After telling them how with the Fortera I was disapointed with them the sold my Dunlop Rover A/T's for $550.00 with a front alignment. I couldn't beat the price and after installation gained a whole new appreciation for these tire. Plus I returned a couple weeks ago with a slow leak in the drivers side rear tire the repaired it and rotated the tires all for no charge and 4 months back when I hit a patch of ice and trashed a tire and wheel they replaced the tire under road hazard no questions asked. No hassles, I couldn't be happier with a tire shop.
