420sx · 02-07-2009, 09:02 PM

^ what he said. hands down

Sileighty_85 · 02-07-2009, 10:03 PM

onlinetires.com has SOME cheap Federals

Chad4061 · 02-07-2009, 10:43 PM

ive seen good deals on tireseasy.com and discounttiredirect.com plus discount tire has free shipping. i got some neogens 225/45/17 for under 400 shipped which is better than my local shop said they could even get!

*enkei2k* · 02-07-2009, 10:49 PM

in my opinion, i think discounttire and tirerack are pretty expensive, city tire online for me. got my maxxis' there. great service too. i can't believe nobody said them yet...lol i think they got the cheapest tires, plus they carry feddys too. just that shipping is what kills it.

*awesomenick* · 02-07-2009, 10:59 PM

Discount Tire Direct.

Vulcan Tire is cool too, they have a warehouse right by my work, which is Dicount Tire.

So, I never need to use Vulcan. Haha.

s13dan · 02-09-2009, 02:57 AM

i say find a local dealer, see what they have first..

The Chad · 02-09-2009, 04:03 AM

I have used pep boys for my volvo...tough to beat $35 per tire

But for the S14 I jump back and forth between tirerack.com and discount tire direct. Some times my buddy that works in parts at Nissan can get me a decent deal or let me know when some used good condition come off a car in the shop

(nothing wrong with a 5 finger discount behind the shop late night

)

pathill · 02-09-2009, 06:12 AM

I hunt for tires at ebay and at some online auction sites. Second hand slightly used ones are a good finds as well. Just be sure you know how to check for good tires.

+3 City Tire shipped me two federal 535s for my spare S14 wheels for like $80 a tire...I don't think you can beat that, and like said up above I don't mind paying a little extra to a vendor that supports us...

city tire online

*fliprayzin240sx* · 02-09-2009, 04:06 PM

Depends on the tire...I've ordered a set of Azenis RT615s from CityTires. I was planning on getting a set of Dunlop Star Specs from them since they're the cheapest ive found for 235/40-18s. Then I went to Tire Rack, they only quoted me $35 for shipping 2 tires. In the long run, I save close to $50 thru Tire Rack due to shipping.

Brian · 02-09-2009, 04:09 PM

yeah, but.

CITY TIRE

thats14guy · 02-09-2009, 08:09 PM

try www.tireseasy.com

illxs14 · 02-09-2009, 08:35 PM

if you live near a discount tire, go in with a quote that you got online, they'll usually match it after shipping as long as they verify it. thats what we do. it's a nice way to save some extra money and get a deal

Moon Ill · 02-09-2009, 09:05 PM

Off other peoples cars

No, seriously.

I've always used tirerack.com and I've found them the cheapest place online. Their selection is pretty rigid though, but they do offer some conveniences. Their test and reviews make the site awsome (but not the cheapest)

I did look at citytire online. They offer a greater selection of tires you want and the prices are pretty damn good too. So I'm going to say those two.

If you just want some crappys to have some fun on I'd buy used.
