great experience with Discount Tire Direct

**third_shift|studios** · 02-28-2007, 07:26 AM

I just wanted to share a great experience I had with a company called Discount Tire Direct. Zbizkit and I were searching for Nitto street radials, I found some well priced ones from the company's ebay store, so I called them and ended up getting an even BETTER deal...

I spoke to a sales guy named Jay, i highly reccomend him as he offered us free shipping and even discounted the tires we bought by $10 each. Saved us a shit load of money. Even included some hazard warrenty after the sale if something should happen.

I ended up getting 4 NT 555r's @ 275/40/17 for $556.00
zbizkit bought NT 555r's also: 2 @ 275/40/17 and 2 285/35/18 for $668.00

Here is there contact info, great company!

not too bad price for just the tires. I see them on http://www.discounttiredirect.com/di...sr=*&x=24&y=16 for 150 a pop.

that's why i'll always call and talk to someone if they offer their number. Usually a sales person is capable of adjusting the prices where as the net will just list the cold hard price.

I remember when Todd used to work there... good old days w/ Todd.
It looks like they have kept serving their customers right

I was actually in the process of contacting them to get some 315/30-18 Nitto NT-01 for all corners... I think I'll do that even this week, and over the phone.

**third_shift|studios** · 02-28-2007, 09:37 AM

hey eugenio, make sure you go to that guy i posted; he's super cool!

When do you think they will be out with the 315/35-17 in the NT-01?

It was suppose to be the beginning of this year and still they are not available?

@Jaison - Good to know they are still decent to order from.

I see that Hoosiers still have some discounted tires still availiable.

What is needed to fit 335/35-17 on all four corners?

Looking at the R3S04 TIRES at $100 a pice that is one sweet deal!

More spacers, BFH, etc?

you'll need 12" wheels and you'll need to flare the rear fenders.
I got my 315s for much less

and they were S05 ( 1 year fresher rubber )
