Best place to buy parts tires

[jdb929]

I just picked up an 02 ST. I'm looking to add a 3" BL, AAL and TT. I plan on running 33" tires on the stock wheels. Where do you recommend getting my parts/best price for the above. Also, what size wheel spacers will in need to clear the 33 x 12.50s on stock rims. thanks

The best place to buy tires where I am is Costco. Other places advertise lower prices but they add all sorts of "fees" until they're much higher.

If you're installing them yourself, Walmart. Or you can shop around using the Walmart price to get the best price. I recently got two new snow tire for my Blazer using this tactic at a Firestone store. Original price was $162 each, I got them for $78 each.

It looks like I'll be buying a set of tires this summer. My new truck has some wear on the left front inner section. Probably due to the front end issues my mechanic found before I purchase it.

$78 a tire is a great price

Are you installing yourself? Some places won't install tires over the factory size. Just something to keep in mind and ask about.

Costco will only install factory sized tires, at least that is what their website states.

I got around that by bringing in the rims for my 1968 Fiat 850 Coupe. I put larger tires on the rear than on the front. Both sets were on 14" rims, stock is 13".

Of course that only works if you have spare rims!

And Discount won't install 33x12.50 tires on the factory wheels. They claim they are too narrow for that size tire. Find a local shop and they will do it.
