    Discount's

    Does anyone in TAMOR work at Discount Tire Co? If so, can you hook me up with a discount on some Goodyear MTR's? I ordered some yesterday and they wont be in till the end of the week. I'm dishing out 900 bucks for em and wanted to get a better deal.

    Thanks Guys,

    -Bob

    i doubt anyone's going to give you a discount. I think they'll price match 4 wheel parts and the like though.

    900 for what size? with mount and balance? certs? I am finally coming to the sad realization that there are times when you just gotta spend some dough. or be patient and look for used. but then you gotta do it more often. It all depends on how cheap you are and how much time you are willing to devote to it.

    Why don't you just walk in there and ask the guys in the garage for a discount?

    yeah, getting the unlimited balance's and rotations w/ mount and certs. 31" same tires that come stock on the rubicons.

    i guess im going to have to bite the bullet on this one!

    Also - making them last as logn as possible with good alignment, air pressure, and rotation can make your 9 bills last a lot longer. My old mad just got 80k out of stock tires and replaced them before they hit the wear bars. A buddy I used to work with's dad had a super duty diesel he got 60 out of stock tires and 90 out of bfg at's. Tires are a different beast than they used to be.

    They better be. I've been looking at tires for my truck and they are all priced at $10 less then what the 37's on the cruiser cost me

    they wll price match too. whatever you do dont pay full retail(what they priced you). make them take atleast $15 a tire off. This store prob makes 30K a day.

    FYI, they'll add some $$ to that because the tire rack price does not include shipping or mounting, but that shouldn't be more than $20/tire.

    or if they like you they will match the price w/o shipping like they did for my tires.

    You really just have to find someone that likes what you do and they will give you a discout

    Mike Mcaleese, the manager at Discount, has been giving an informal ~10% discount to TAMOR for years. Just ask for him.

    I've been working for DTC off and on since highschool. I'm taking some time off right now for school (19hrs.) Mike's a good guy (bossman), he actually cares about customers unlike another store I worked at. They might give you a slight discount if you're a returning customer and they will price match if you show them a quote.
