Discount Tire's Certificates for Free Replacement

Hey everyone,

I am looking for a set of new tires to replace the stocks I got on. I'm planning to get the Yoko S.drive from Disount Tire. Has anyone gotten tires from them and paid for the Certificates for Free Replacement? It's an extra $68 for 4 tires. I've had my stocks for almost 40K miles now without any problems.

Is it worth it?

I've had good service with the Discount tire near me. They even patched up a nail puncture on my OEM tire for free and I hadn't ordered anything from them before. I ordered a set of Yoko Avids for my girl's ride. It was a special order, and it came as promised. The car was in and out in 1hr as promised. I would judge each place/shop accordingly. Although the Discount tire I've gone to is good, don't assume all the Discount tires are good.

I've used the certifcate replacement twice on the same car. The tires were worn on the inside and they replaced them without any problem.

yes its worth it. when I bought my 452's one got a bubble within a week or two. called them up got new tire in 2days. I don't have a DTC near me so they have to ship. totally worth it.

GET IT!! you wont regret it.

new tire would have cost me another $130 but I just rebought the tire replacement on the new tire $14.

Tires are inspected everytime they rotate and rebalance for you. I would do it. If they see a problem, they will replace the tires for you. Do it.

good thing to know for when it is time to replace the oem tires on my 06. still have alot of thread on them after 56,000 miles. I get them rotated and balanced every 6,000 miles and check the tire pressure on a regular basis.

True story guys i was shopping for tires for celica before at discount tire at San Diego

and I had asked the guy if the warrenty would cover vandalism, someone knifes your tires etc

He whispered to me "just say you hit something on the road and u didnt know what it is" and bring it here

lol i never tried it but sounds like it would work

Mine are at 39K right now, and I'm hoping that they would last until mid 40's
