OEM Tires at Costco

[Paul]

Everyone probably already knows this, but: I just ordered 4 new BF Goodrich stock tires via Costco warehouse's website. Total installed is approx. $567, including shipping, mount, balance, Costco road hazard, tire disposal fees, etc. Much cheaper than Tire Rack. Have to order them via the Costco website then wait 5-10 business days for delivery to the local store. Could probably have them shipped to your home if you want, but part of the deal comes in the low cost of the install and road hazard.

Drawbacks are you have to have a Costo nearby, and you have to be a member.

In case anyone was wondering, this is not a vendor violation. Tire rack is not a supporting vendor. They simply have an ad which gives the site money IF you click on it and buy the tires from them, much like Google at the bottom of the home page.

Sorry if I did something wrong - I am not affiliated with costco in any way. I just noticed the ad from T.R. on the home page and thought I should share what I found out about C.W. being alot cheaper.

No oops needed, thanks for the info :up:

My question is: Do you trust COSTCO with your rims?

Americas Tire bought me a new rim because they scratched one. And then let me keep the scratched one. Have not found a local place that can polish and clear coat.

Costco has the latest equipment. They can handle aluminum wheels without scratching them. IMO they are the best for tires.

I bought tires from them before for my truck - and they said I'd get free rotations every 5,000 miles. I'm just thinking about how good a deal that would be on the Marauder when rotations include removing the tire from the wheel. That wouldn't be cheap to pay for every 5k. I'm assuming Costco will do that for an MM?

Thanks for the heads up on this one. I need new fronts - at about $100 a piece it's a steal - compared to the KDW2's - that are like $250 a shot! I would like the 2's on the front to match mine on the rears - but at that discount I can live with different tread patterns...

Costco is great, they fill it up with nitrogen. Just make sure you ask for your shiny valve stem caps back. ;) I had a defect in one of mine, side wall was splitting, it was still under the bfg warranty. So I returned it to Costco and they put on a new one. Only had to pay the price difference of when I bought the tire and what it was at the time. I don't know if they took it up with bfg or not.

I Bought Mine At Costco. Don't Be Surprised If It Takes A Little Longer With Our Tires. Last Time I Waited 3 Weeks For The Rears. You Should Have Bought Them Last Month When They Had $60 Off A Set Of 4 Tires. I Have About 20,000 On My Set, And Will Be Re-ordering Rears Soon.
