Default Tirerack.com?

I was seeing who has used tirerack.com and what they thought of it. I am thinking of getting new wheels and tires from them. Do they mount and balance them correctly even though it is free? I'd like to get some input from people that have ordered from them before. Thanks.

Just bought my tires from them this last fall. I actually drove there and let them mount and balance. They do as good a job as anyone else and were much cheaper.

Haven't bought anything through them personally. I hear good things about them and this forum also seems to be somewhat fond of them as well. Balancing and mounting isn't that hard so I doubt anything good go wrong there especially with the right equipment. They seem to be a fair price, but not the best.

I've ordered tires for my wife's Acadia and wheels for my Z71 from them. they have a distribution center in Louisiana and I got the tires next day. Wheels I think took 2 days, but their customer service called my house to make sure I had ordered what I intended to order. 16x12 DC-1s. They wanted to make sure I knew they were 12 inches wide. lol. That was a first for me, but it's good to know they are actually looking at the orders. I will prob order tires and wheels for this truck from them when the time comes.

Bought my wheels and tires from them. They were mounted and balanced by tirerack and I have had no problems. (33x12.50's on a 17" rim)

And they made it through shipping just fine, from Georgia (I think it was) to Illinois.

I have only purchased tires from them but, I can say that Tirerack is an easy business to deal with. Great prices too.

Great. Thanks everyone. I just wanted to hear some good things about them before I drop $1800. I'm pretty pumped.
