TrueWhiteBoy Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I had another thread suggesting some good tires and got some good feedback on that, but now I'm curious where the best place to buy and get tires installed would be. Big O Tires has a B3G1 free deal going on with purchase of alignment (which I'd be getting anyway) which seems to bring it to around $500 with installation & alignment. Ideally I'd like to pay ~500 (or less ) for 4 good new tires with installation, alignment, and some sort or decent warranty. Any chance anyone has some good suggestions of places to try or of any deals going on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bakabakablah Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 You could always try Tire Central in San Gabriel. Here's the Yelp link: http://www.yelp.com/biz/tire-central-san-gabriel I bought my tires from them and they were excellent, both in terms of service and in terms of price (they beat TireRack by over $70).

TrueWhiteBoy Posted March 30, 2010 Author Share Posted March 30, 2010 Awesome, thank you everyone! Hmmm, I should probably wait until I get back from vacation before inquiring around so I'll have enough money. Being poor sucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueWhiteBoy Posted April 16, 2010 Author Share Posted April 16, 2010 Alright, well unfortunately it doesn't look like it's going to work with Andrew (best of luck to your new project), so it looks like I'll have to check out Tire Central in San Gabriel. Any other places to try? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wpmarky Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 You could always try Tire Central in San Gabriel. Here's the Yelp link: http://www.yelp.com/biz/tire-central-san-gabriel I bought my tires from them and they were excellent, both in terms of service and in terms of price (they beat TireRack by over $70). bump for this place in San Gabriel. This past Saturday morning, my buddy decides he doesn't want to risk running 3/32nd's of NT05's at Buttonwillow, so we spent the morning calling the usual tire places. Asking for a rare tire size & same day installation, we were getting nowhere. Then I remember this thread, and gave Tire Central a try. We spoke to Donald, and at first he said he had none in stock, but would ask around to see if he could find some, and said to call back in 10 mins. Then when I call back, he said he found some, but would have to charge a lil more since he has to drive 2 hrs to get them. Concerned, I ask how much more, and he responded with $215/tire installed. My friend, who paid $1100 in norcal through Discount tire, happily agrees ($300 cheaper than discount tire). We had called at 11, dropped by at 3, got the tires on & balanced by 4. $860 installed, no extra BS about tire recycling fees or TPMS fees. I didn't ask about prices on other kinda of tires, but when I do need new ones, I'll definitely give this place a call first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KegTapper Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Tucker Tire in Laguna Niguel (I think, right off Crown Valley and the 5) is great. I and a bunch of other coworkers go there. Got my setup (can't remember the model, but decent Falkens) mounted balanced and installed + disposal fees and tax for a total of like $420 or something ridiculously cheap.
