tirerack best prices for tires?
So I'm looking at buying the Continental Extreme DWS tires for my 2005 Acura TSX and they are $119.00 on tirerack and $139.00 at my local discount tires. It cost around $80 to ship the tires from tirerack.com
I'll probably end up going with the discount tire pricing because tirerack is on backorder. I did make an online offer to discount tire to see if they would beat that price. I'll find out on monday.
Question: Is tirerack.com really the best place to buy tires (for the most part that is)? Seems like shipping costs really kill the deal...
thanks for any input!

For some tires it is, for some the shipping makes it more expensive. Remember you also have to find a place to mount and balance them if you have them shipped to you from tirerack.

i got the same at onlinetires.com and had them shipped.....then waited..and waited....then I called them. So 10 days after the order was made, they said....oh, it is on back order! Well why don't you let me know instead of me waiting for nothing, thanks suckers, how about you just cancel the order then.
So onlinetires.com was cheaper than tirerack.com. Shipping was cheaper too...if they would only tell you when an order is on back order or not. So tirerack has a better service, but they are not the cheapest....in the mean time i haven't found anyone online that had the conti DWS!!

I got these tires when they came out about 2 months ago and they are supposedly still on back order? Dam! All I can say is that its the best tires Ive bought compared to what I used to roll on old yoko es300 and yoko s-drives. Continental extreme contacts I would buy again and they come with a 40000 mile warranty!

Got the DWS about 3 weeks ago from my local discount tires. The prices on the tires with replacement warrenty from DT and TR were withen $20 so i went with DT and had the tires in 3days. I was told at the time that the DWS were on national backorder but my sales guy did some magic and found a set somewhere at one the DT in california and shipped them in for me.
