Default Is Tire Rack a good place to buy from?

I'm looking to buy a set of S-03s from Tirerack.com. Are they a good place to buy from? Does anyone have experience dealing with them?

Just got tires from them last week. They have a very good reputation.

I wish they would open a store in Canada.

Duty and brokerage fees kill their great deals

I just bought 4 OZ Superleggeras with S03s mounted on them from Tire Rack and had no problems. They arrived pretty quick too, with all the proper hardware.

BOTH The Tire Rack & Discount Tire Direct are on my: GOOD TO DEAL WITH LIST!

I've dealt with them Both multiple times for over 2 years.
With positive results.

Good luck,

A.

Yup, Tire Rack is great. I work with Aaron, who is also a car enthusiast, and it's always a pleasurable experience.

Bought over $2500 in parts from them. Fantastic service for such a large company. I will do business with them again.

I want to get tires from them but I am not sure where I should get them mounted. I heard that some tire shop places do not care about your rims and will scatch them up. I was looking to get the dunlop fm tires from them for my 16" c8.

But ya, back to your question. Only heard good things from tire rack.

I usually just call Tire Rack for the best price on a set and then ask Discount Tire to match the price of the tire + S&H. They usually come out with a pretty good deal that evens out to what I'd have to pay at Tire Rack with S&H.

Tire Rack is awesome, as is Discount Tire Direct. Discount Tire (the retail stores) are good as well, but they usually have to order anything decent (in my experience).

I just ordered new tires from Discount Tire Direct this morning. They have one upped Tire Rack though! Now, their prices include shipping, but they will still match Tire Rack's price. Not to mention they have opened new warehouses so their delivery is quick. Using the free UPS ground I am getting my tires on Wednesday (again, just ordered this [Monday] morning).

Outstanding. Great service, knowledgeable people, good prices. Best rep in the industry, and well deserved.

They're like the "Jason Franza of the Tire World" - everybody's bought something from them, and not a bad word to be heard anywhere.

Got my snow tires, and my brake pads from them. Fast, freindly service. Will order from again someday! I recommend.
