Going to Tire Rack
#2
When I was shopping for tires, not even including the shipping charges, it was cheaper to buy them locally. Tire places usually charge higher rates for mounting/balancing/disposal as they didn't actually sell you the tires; so they'll try and make up the difference that way. The only way I found it to be worth it is if TireRack is having a ridiculous sale, like they were on the Bridgestone RE01s a couple weeks ago. Or if you buy a wheel/tire combo from TR, or you have the capability to mount and balance your wheels/tires yourself.....or you've got a buddy that will do it for a case of beer.
Not trying to talk you out of giving them business. Just research the places around you for how much they charge to mount/balance/dispose of the old rubber. Unless the actual store has mount/balance/disposal services? I don't know. I've never actually seen a Tire Rack store.

Costco and $14 to install balance and mount, plus lifetime free rotation
and free road hazard warranty.
The prices are also usually either the same or even less then tire rack.
One problem is Cook county sales tax.
Once every 2 month they have a $70 off a set of Michelin tires.
For our cars they have the awesome all weather Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus
and free road hazard warranty.
