    Good deal on BFG tires

    My car needs new tires, so I went internet shopping. I usually buy at tirerack.com, but did some more snooping around this time. tires-easy.com has a set of 4 BFGs for $396 plus shipping. My total with shipping was $474, which was slightly less than Tire Rack's price without shipping. I saved about $50. Just thought you would like to know in case you're in the market for tires. I don't work for either company, usual disclaimers apply.

    thanks for the post.....damn rear tires are expensive again...when tirerack used to have those sales on the rear 245s it would be around $87/tire. I would buy like 6 of them because my rears last a year...maybe a little less. But i always manage to burn them up. Front tires are cheap at tires-easy.com though. That's sweet.

    I ordered two fronts. They were eaten alive from the bad alignment (didn't feel a thing!!) and are gone on the inside. Better safe than sorry for $53.00 each. I drive too fast to be a cheap-ass.

    Well, they sent me an email stating my two rear tires had been shipped, and then another email stating that the front tires were not available and didn't know when they would be available. So the cheap tires aren't available? What a surprise. And what a lousy tactic - shipping the other ones before notifying me. That smacks a little of fraud to me. So I DO NOT recommend buying tires from them.

    They are not on the list anymore.
    Reminds me of the K&N CAI deal that someone stumbled upon, then when everyone started to order the typo was found and the price went up and orders were cancelled.
    I bet it was a clerical error....

    They've taken my money for the fronts that I ordered. I hope to see some results soon.

    Do NOT buy tires from these people. They have sent me 3 emails saying the tires are not available, but have yet to issue a refund to my debit card. I send them an email every day asking them to do that, and no response.

    Here's my story - and I'm stickin' to it! I'll say first that I think that I must've been lucky, judging from some of the other stories. When I saw the first postings on this thread, I checked out their site and saw the fronts were at $53. I quickly placed an order for 2. I had brand new front on the car, but the rears were worn pretty thin in the center on the rears. This was the second set of rears on the car at 35.2K.

    After hearing some of your stories, and checking their website to see that they no longer listed the BFG's in the 235/50 size, I became worried and called to check on my order. They said they were going to be shipped the next day. I axt if I could add another 2 tires to my order, and after some haggling and speaking to a supervisor, they got it done. I was charged $144.71 twice for two tires with shipping, so I ended up with 4 tires.

    I got the first 2 tires in yesterday, and the next 2 just came in today. I'm considering ordering some tires from them for my wife's Durango, but wondering if that would be pushing my luck.
