simpletire.com is the best place I have found to order tires. I got a set of pretty nice A/T tires for my F-150 for a little over $500. Another $75-100 for mount/balance, and I'm good for another 50,000+, and my fuel economy has improved with the new tires, which has been a nice bonus

I got Mr. Tire to match Monro's 'buy 3 get 1 free' offer, and Mr. Tire's per tire price was lower. So, I got the lower price and 1 free.


Some places will even match promotional pricing that is tied to a mail-in rebate. NTB did that for me once, and instead of a mail-in rebate, they just knocked the amount of the rebate off their price. The tire in question was also $10 cheaper per tire. I did let them change out the brake pads at the same time, so that may have sweetened the pot for them though.

Call Phillip at Ragusa's Automotive in Baton Rouge. He used to work at Allied and was always the best at getting decent prices and great customer service. I am sure he can get you as good a price as anyone in Baton Rouge.

Costco has good prices on tires but CatsGoneWild will not like it if you shop there.

Exactly. Definitely not going to be going from a older model accord to a Raptor.

What brand is the best VALUE.
B.F.G. is expensive but I'm getting my money back by getting near 100k miles. Good wet & dry traction too.

Generals are basically private label Continental Tires. Not a bad value at all. I just don't trust Walmart anymore since they over torqued two lug nuts on a wheel and fricked em up. Played hell getting them to actually admit they fricked up and pay to replace the studs.

My company truck is a 2018 Ford F-150. I drive about 200-250 miles a day for work and usually about 10-50 personal miles on weekends. Long story sort, I drive a lot. If you want the best value, ride, traction, and durability on Tires, buy Michelin Defenders. You’ll thank me later.

I buy Lionclaw off Ebay for my work truck. They are less than $400 for a set and last over 50k miles and I'm rough on tires.

Hit Toyota up next month for their Buy 3 get 1 for a Buck. They do not jack the prices. You get Road Hazard on tires for 2 years, and free rotation every 6 months or 5000 miles for life of the tires.
Just get the Service Advisor to knock off the Shop Supplies/Hazmat charge and you really do save big money. This covers any tires they sale and they sell them all. Michelin, Bridgestone, BFG, General, Cooper, etc.
