I'm a 25 year old girl and don't know much about tires. I do know it's time to buy new ones so I went online to check out some prices. I found on discount tires Barum Bravuris 2 40000 for 53 dollars a piece and at firestone FR710 65000 warranty for 69.99 dollars a piece. I usually would buy the one with the best warranty but the reviews say the barium's are really good...... Please help me...
 
I have never bought tires online due to the additional costs. I can get them cheaper locally. To get tires online, the shipping costs are outrageous. Then you have to take them somewhere to have them installed and balanced. So you have to make a trip to your local tire store anyway. Most of them charge extra to mount tires bought elsewhere. Go to a real tire store like Goodyear or Firestone. Don't go to WalMart tire service. Also check the date code on the tires before you buy. You don't want a tire that has been sitting in storage for 5 years. On the sidewall is a code that tells the week and year a tire was made. 3308 would be the 33rd week of 2008. The online stores will ship whatever they want to get rid of. Please be careful.
