Discount Tire is one of the places I just don't go against. They are everywhere, warrant and rotate tires for free at all locations (within reason on warranty), and will match any tire price you can show them. Don't even bother shopping there. Search online, take them the best price you find, and let them beat it. They always do it for me.
2 great examples of what makes Discount great for me:
1 - I bought a new set of off road tires for my F-250. They were
Ugharger than the stock tires, and my spare was flat anyway, so I asked them to replace the spare with one of my other tires since they were closer to the larger tires I had put on. There was nothing wrong with the old tires, I just wanted bigger tires. Fast forward a bit and I am at the ranch. Pop a tire on a cedar stump and go to put on my spare. Low and behold, the same flat spare was there. I looked at my receipt from Discount and it plainly said on it to replace the spare.uckily this was a Sunday morning of a holiday weekend and Discount was closed. I drove ~5 miles back goths ranch house on the flat and destroyed my rim on the rocks. Call around and the only place I can find open with a tire that size is in San Antonio, 3 hours away. I take one of the ranch trucks, drive to SA, buy a new tire, drive back to the ranch, mount it and drive back to Houston. Call Discount on Monday morning and I am livid. They tell me to come by and they wi take care of it. They reimburse me the cost of the tire I bought from NTB, replace my jacked up rim, and give me 4 brand new tires, and a new spare.
2 - most recent set of tires I bought was a new set of Coopers for my Tahoe. I wanted a less expensive set, which they said were in stock, so I drop off the truck. They call me a little while later and didn't have those but had another set in stock that were more expensive but would charge me the original price, repeat that process again when that set was not stock and I get the Coopers, which were about $40 or more per tire than the original set I wanted, all for the same price I was originally quoted on the first set, plus 10% off for my troubles, and they still got the truck out in the time they told me to begin with.
That's why I always have and always will buy from Discount. The price will always be best because they match anyone, the warranty and the fact they are absolutely everywhere, and the untouchable customer service.
