Default Best place to buy tires locally

I've been going on a lot of trips lately, and my tires are worn down to the max. I spotted some wire today, so time to replace them yesterday. What places in the area sell them for the best prices. I can mount and balance them myself, but I want to find a shop with reasonable prices. I only need two fronts, the rears are still around 70% tread.

I know that, but I don't want to catch a blow out or a flat. Around a half inch patch of rubber is missing from one of the fronts. Seeing the wiring isn't very comforting.

If you order from TireRack today out of the DE warehouse you will have them on Wed, you can't do much better than that. They also have great prices. If you cant be home to recieve them , let me know and you can have them shipped here to the shop and I will hold them for you.

Where are you located at?

I couldn't get it done today, too much work to do.

The shop I part time at got me a great deal on tires, but while inspecting the rears I noticed a small crack on the inside of my left rear rim.

At this point I think it's cheaper to just replace the rim and remount the tire. Old Eclipse GTS rims should be easy to come across.
