Hahaha yes sorting the size from smallest to largest is on the todo list. Our vendors list is on the main page you can see who's prices we have. I don't think we will ever have sams or costco on their because of the required membership

You need to include all of the Extreme Summer tires.

You have only RE-11 under Bridgestone

Size section should allow sort by UTOG.

Only issue with that is UTOG isn't an exact science or number that is 100% comparable from brand to brand. But it could get you in the ball park of what you might be interested in.

Just added a new vendor to the site and will have another one up next week along with some Continental models.

If you buy tires thru one of the vendors on our site please make sure to let them know that you came from TireTab during checkout. Thanks.

We added UTQG to all the models, you can now sort the size results by treadwear.

Still need to fix UTQG sort. For example 50 treadwear comes after 400 treadwear.

Hey Alan.. We haven't gotten around to fixing the sort issue. I posted this in here so people know that we have the utqg. At least the treadwears sort together for now =p

Instead of just having performance tires we just added 27 more tire models, most of them being street tires. You can now compare prices for your daily driver or a family car.

You can now also filter the Search By Size results by category (Competition, Performance and Street) and its now easier to find your size in the list.

Thanks to everyone that uses our site to compare tire prices

Don't forget to check out TireTab when buying tires this summer. Even if you don't buy tires online use it to price match the local retailers =)
