BR Tire Dealer Suggestions
Posted by Tiger 10 and 12 on 4/23 at 12:47 pm
Any suggestions as far as where to go for new tires in BR? I have traditionally gone to my hometown for vehicle maintenance, but my tires are pretty worn down, and it's time I start buying in BR. tia

I usually use Allied Tires on Staring near Perkins. They have good prices and will match anyone else's if they are the lowest. They do great work and are good people too.

Get them from Wally World or Sam's. They price match and I got them to price match a photoshopped printout of a TireRack page. The people there could care less about their jobs or if Sam Walton's kids lose money

You have any experience returning things to Academy? We could use some pointers here and you seem to be in the know.

They used to replace Costas on the spot. As everyone should know, Costas break as soon as they get close to the ground. We would get broken pairs from everyone we knew and just go trade them in for a new pair. Probably did it around 15 times over a year and they finally caught on. Made a hell of a lot of money from it
