Looking for cheap new tires

Looking for new tires. Anybody get any good deals lately. I bought from Tirerack last time but the shipping and mounting eats most of the savings.
I am near Orlando area

Hankook H727! Cheap but rated almost as good as the best. Pepboys may still have a discount.

I looked at Sam's Club too. Very expensive, and only carried two brands in the Yaris size.

I agree.
I bought these tires here...http://www.discounttire.com/dtcs/fin...15625&sw=false... and they've been great. They've been through their first Michigan winter with ease. I fly by SUVs in the snow with my Yaris. Fun stuff.
Good tire price plus the 100,000 mile warranty is a pretty good deal.

I went to the local Goodyear service center and had eagles installed for about $5 cheaper (per tire) than TireRacks price. Handling the snow really well, so far...another 10" is expected tonight

OTD price: $360.00 for set of 4 :)

Scrap yards usually have used tires for about $5-$10 each.

I agree with Swid : I'm about to get a set of hankook 727 and they where the cheapest around. 460$ out the door at my local mechanics.

Hi,
I suggest Hankook H727 for you as these tires are also good for winter also to run on the snow easily without creating problem. cheaper than others.
These days i am listening praises of these tires.
Thanks

hate to do a topic revival, but I've got a '09 yaris sedan and was wondering if those hankooks would be good for my car too?

As a chick, I don't know s@#$ about cars so I don't want to shop blindly haha. I got my yaris at about 45k miles (it was previously a rental car from Hertz, so I'm assuming the tires have mainly highway miles) so I *think* it's time for me to get new tires? It's at about 47k miles now I think.

I did a penny test on the tread, and most of the tires barely reach or reach abe's head.


If they are good for my car, I think I'm gonna go with the discount tires direct website because pepboys has these tires for about $100 each x___x;;

and would you think it's necessary I buy the tire replacement warranty? Thanks :)

Yes, the Hankook 727 is an excellent tyre and will work very well on your sedan.

I would recommend replacing with 195/60/15's @ $82 each at discounttiredirect.com

EDIT: Plus, there is currently a $40 discount on the Hankooks... so just $72 each delivered to your door!
