American Tire Co price matches Tirerack, and tirerack is the cheapest iv'e seen anywhere. But the thing is American Tire takes so long to come whenever i order it.

America's Tire Co. does price match Tire Rack and we discount 10% so no one else will beat the price. Also, what store order's your tires? When ever I order tires for a customer it usually takes about 3-5 business days depending on where they are coming from. We can also get them locally through our neighboring shops and vendors so they arrive at our stores much sooner than 3-5 days. What kind of tires do you order?

The way to get the cheapest price at America's Tire is for them to pricematch a tire available on the website but not in the store. Go look on their website for the cheapest tire of that size only available online. Call the store, ask them if they can order it for you. They will offer to match the price with a tire that is available in stock.

We do not charge an additional $20. I have never seen of heard of anyone do that before. And besides, I wouldnt allow it. My customers are very important to me and I would go that extra mile to try and take care of them the best way I can.

That is somewhat not true. We price match anything. We will not be undersold. If we you see a tire you like on another website, bring us a print out or a reciept, we will price match it on the spot. If it is from another vendor, we will call to verify the price and will honor the price match guarantee whether the tire is in stock or not.

So, American's Tire Co. actually sell "near mint condition", and put on "near mint condition tires"? And even take trade-ins?
