Tire Places

I need new tires. Got them at Sears last time but was curious where you guys have found the cheapest prices?

A tire place like Adirondack Tire or Mavis Discount Tire?

A general chain auto place like Sears or Monro?

Or an independent place like a LaBarge auto?

These things are so frickin' expensive - I hate buying them! lol

Happy Friday everyone, and TIA!

Do you guys have Dunn tire? That or BJ's is our go to places for tires....out the door prices! Sears adds so many silly fees!

We don't have a Dunn, but do have BJ's. Do they put them on for you as well? Or do you just buy them from there and you have to get them put on elsewhere?

I'm looking, too. Hydroplaning yesterday in Niskayuna is making me step up the effort. So far, I've only called Adirondack Tire, and the guy I spoke too was really helpful. I asked him about what I was looking for and about a particular tire that I was interested in. He told me I didn't necessarily need the one I had asked for (which was really $$) and suggested a good tire for my price range. I'm going to call Warren Tire as well, mainly because they have a location very close to my house. I figured calling actual tire places may be more beneficial since that's what they know what to do. I'm a little hesitant with going to Sears, even though I could get my mom's discount. Don't know why, but just leary of them.

Oh, and my dad went through Sam's in Latham and had a good experience. He went looking there for me since I don't have a membership, and unfortunately I'd need to special order any tire I would need.

BJs puts them on and everything! If you are a member, check out their website for possible coupons too!

I was very happy with BJs, good prices. They don't carry a lot of options but do have good, better and best.

Thanks, ladies!

DH buys ours at Sams. He says they are cheaper there than other places, but I don't know to what extent he price-shopped.

(We do have a free trial BJs membership right now, but didn't last time he bought tires, so I don't know if this would change things).

We get ours online. You can bring them to any tire place and they will put them on your car for between 10-15 dollars a tire. The discounts on line are significant, and some of the websites include free shipping.

We went to JD's Tire Warehouse on Central last weekend for our tires, and we're going to go again for our winter tires on the other car. I looked up the tires on Consumer Reports and saw that they have the ones I wanted.
