With Edge Racing gone, what is a good alternate source (other than Tire Rack) for good information on tires, available sizes, and prices?

I am especially interested in high performance (UHP, Max) summer tire online information source.

I like Tire Rack but they do not carry all the tire manufactures that I am sometimes interested, such as Toyo and Falken.

I think Tire Rack's main direct competitor is Discount Tire Direct. They do carry some brands that TR doesn't (and vice versa).

They don't seem to carry Toyo but they do carry Falken.

I have never bought from them though, so I can't speak to the quality of their customer service... I'm a happy TR customer (haven't needed any tires they don't sell).

I get my Falkens from Vulcan Tire. No complaints.

I was an ER customer for 6 years, bought half a dozen sets of wheels from them and who knows how many sets of tires. They did screw me over with my last order, though ("recommended" size rubbed like a **** on girlfriend's car and they refused to exchange it for the right size). But I still was a fan. Once their stock started going down I had to find an unusual size rubber for my Elise, and that's when I found treadepot.com - I haven't extensively compared the prices with other retailers yet, but they did stock tire sizes that were borderline impossible to find otherwise, so that's where I'll be looking next time.
