You can get some good deals on them on eBay i guess. But i prefer to find them online, print out the page and then have a store like Discount Tire price match the offer rather then buy online and have them shipped.

they price match to the price shipped to your door. you can try craigslisting your tires at any local shops for a cheap price. go to Discount/America's tires and they will call that shop to pricematch

Have anyone else had problems with onlinetires.com? I tried to calculate the the shipping rates before but it never worked unless there is a certain way you had to order the tires...
