Sears sure has a great marketing plan. They have a customer for life and it's only costing them 50% of the price of new tires. Most of these customers probably won't even keep their cars for that long and Sears still retains the customer's loyalty for tires, maintenance, etc.

Yes they should BR and who knows...maybe I will go that route but I went that route with my Vue and Bridgestone tires...could not get a good set of tires...3 sets in 6 months...I don't have time to keep going back and forth letting usually not very tire knowledgable people trying to balance a set of tires. I would rather put good rubber on my vehicles by someone who knows what they are doing (tire shop)


I'll be doing the same thing with the rotors when they finally start to warp.

I'd rather invest the $$ in quality items when the OEM parts crap out instead of applying band aids every 4k or so miles

Sam's Club beats their price by 10 bucks per tire...however,they charge 9 bucks each to mount them.But Sam's Club also includes at no extra cost for the life of the tire rebalance,rotation,flat repair,and road hazard.
