Discount tire still good place to buy tires you will thrash on trails?

[dentedvw]

I've been away a few years. 6 or 7. Used to be I would buy tires new at Discount Tire, and they had a pretty good warranty regarding trail damage. $60 or so to replace with new. Is that still the case? Seems like there is a lot of places around now selling brands I've never heard of, and they are really small shops. Prices are fairly low, but maybe I should buy several spares, since there is probably no warranty. Maybe I don't need a warranty though.
Lots of online stores now, also. But then you need to find a place to mount them and hope they don't bugger them up along the way.
Costco seems to be out, I think they only mount OE size tires for your vehicle.
Pretty sure I've lost my gentle touch and will wreck some tires for a while until I get back into the swing of it.

What's the scoop on tires these days?

I like Discount. Their tire certificate is handy sometimes. And, I learned you can even add them to used tires.

Big O has the same type of road hazard available and carries name brand tires along with their own line.

Its VERY hard to beat Discount Tires prices and they have warrantied tires people ruined on the trails. If you want more selection of brands, try www.discounttiredirect.com

I buy from the Bountiful highway 89 store. Adam usually helps me. I've not had a trail thrashed tire but I've killed a few trailer tires that were under warranty, a 19" performance tire on my G8 got a puncture that killed the tire (not quite on the sidewall but close enough) and a few other things. Warranty at Discount is solid IMHO.

discount tire will also match any online price of tires they carry.

If you're in the American Fork area, I work at Tire Factory Point S, and we have great warranties on our tires as well.

I trashed 4 tires last summer. Had certs on all of them, and got all of them replaced. But, the discount told me a caveat that was new (prior to me buying the tires and certs a few years prior), if it is mounted on a beadlock, they won't warranty it.
