SimpleTire.com has great mail order prices. But....

A Google search of the address, 472 S. Walnut Ave., Cookeville, TN 38501, shows a residence. It might be some kid living in his Mom's basement running a web site. Or, it might be a guy who knows tires, has accounts with some wholesalers to drop ship tires to customers, and offers low prices due to being smart about keeping very low overhead.

And.....resellerratings.com, usually a reliable source of reviews and store reports, gives them a 9.7 out of 10 point rating. 175 reviews, probably too many for the kid in the basement to dummy up.

The reviews often name "Josh" that helped them with their tire purchases. Josh Chalofsky apparently is that kid in the basement.

So...use a credit card to buy tires from ol' Josh or not? (I've made one request in the past for a credit card company to charge back a purchase that didn't go well, and it worked OK for me.)
 
I just purchased some tires from tirebuyer.com Shipping was free and I had them the next day.
 
Well the way http://simpletire.com works they are only an online site. They have relationships built with all the tire guys across the country so that when you order a tire it actually comes from your local tire store vs a warehouse, which makes the shipping times a lot more convenient. I ordered a few weeks ago and asked the same questions lol. Pretty cool site if you ask me.
