Tire Deals?

Where do you usually find the best deals on tires? I'm looking to purchase some in the next few weeks.

Thanks!

cyclegear has some deals sometimes...I just got an email from them - but I deleted it, can't spend any $$$ on myself right now.

I usually use www.sportbikertrackgear.com they sell Michelin tires, usually pretty cheap. The thing you have to check is mounting them, most stealerships will charge you more to mount a tire you didn't buy there, so make sure you factor mounting in the total price.

I know a couple of places I can get them mounted at a decent price. The set that's on there now, some friends and I did by hand. Umm...I'm not doing that again.

Tires are kinda expensive around here.

www.pureacceleration.com and look at the prices on your tire of choice. I know the owners of that business personally, you'll get a decent deal on tires.

Ok NOW you're getting picky! Um I guess they are kinda soft,but a rear will last me about 4000 miles and I change earlier than most. I am the resident shop-a-holic on this forum,shit I have two sets of tires sitting in my apt right now! If you give me an idea of what type of tire you want,I'm sure that I can help you!
