Recommended online tire source?

Tire Rack has good deals.

I ordered some General Grabber X3's and they got to my house 2days later.

They also have recommended shops in your area that will do the mounting and balancing at a discount.
 
I did okay using an ebay tire retailer when I bought my 40s. Just went off the feedback.
 
I have bought several sets of BFGs from 4Wheelparts. Usually I do it at holidays and catch the sales with free shipping or no taxes or sometimes by 3 get 1 free. They are usually always cheaper than any of my local shops even with my company discounts.
 
Last 3 sets from discount tire on ebay when they were doing free ship and spend 400 get 100 off . And multi use coupon . So if you had 4 tires at 850 just split to 2 orders of 425 and use coupon 2x anx save 200 . Not sure if still doing that tho .
 
I was going to mention Discount Tire Direct but I haven't personally used them.

I have. I have bought a lot of tires from them over the last 10ish years. before 2019 no tax, and did and still have free shipping. they will price match. 1 time I ordered General red labels for my kids Van, they didn't have even thou computer said they did when ordered.They called me, and made me a sweet deal on some more expensive tires.

ordered some 33x10.5 15 General X3 Grabbers from tire rack. 1096 to the shop 1 mile from me. 96 more mount & balance. 2 year Road hazard included. Free Shipping.

Not bad...

Edit. Discount tire was within a dollar, but I couldn't figure their veteran discount verification program, so I went tire rack.

yes I understand I have been less and less satisfied with DTD web site. They won't even show me tires for my burb, cause 16.5, god forbid you try and put together a tire wheel package for a truck that oem 16.5's the site wants to know what vehicle. I wanted to see larger tires for our polaris and went to shop by tire size, instead of showing me tires I got message that my polaris didn't use that size. grrr

I have responded to multiple surveys, and told them of the tire and wheel package deal. Sometimes I just call them and order from a person, they sometimes make you better deal.

I didn't know Tire Rack was doing free shipping now, last I bought a tire from them I had to pay shipping. I needed a replacement, and they where the only source for the same tire, at the time.
 
Next up will be springs. The front eye on my front spring is spread open a bit more than I'm comfy with. Not to mention they the ride like struts...43 y.o. 2 leaf, they're pretty well given their moneys worth.

Cool story about Tire Rack:
When I purchased my 35-in Generals a few years back, I did the entire transaction online. Then a few hours later, I got a call from customer service, the guy was really cool and just wanted to make sure that these tires were going to fit my truck. After I explained my setup, he was like yeah you know what you're doing. I was thoroughly impressed.

Tire rack has been doing free shipping for a few years now.
I have been buying from them for 15 years, great prices, great service, always fresh tires never more than 6 months old, mostly 2-3 months, tires at my house next day.
But now I am buying from a local shop that I used for 12 years on my big rig, he can get me the tire rack deal for less, so I am going with him.
He basically is getting the tires from their wholesale branch and I pay what it costs me for the tires with taxes and I get free installation.
Works for me.
 
Tires are in, made an appt. for Monday for installation.
They made good time, in spite of the weather.

Will do before and after pics...
