Their motto is "We will not be undersold". So I submitted my lower found tire cost package this morning to them and waiting their response. Keep in mind Discounts per tire cost, includes tire mounting, old tire disposals, balancing and rotations, flats etc. I found the cost for less on Costco, plus they are offering .01 cents installation per tire which includes balancing, rotations..same as Discount. Think they'll match the deal?? I would much rather deal with Discount, than Costco. My experience is, they both offer appointments, but I feel Discount has more real time service on appoinments. Thoughts??
Some folks mouths, flat out runs their minds.

I did Costco last week for the first time. I was pretty impressed. They gave me and appointment was done in less than one hour.
Costco offer free road hazards, free rotations, free flat repairs.
I went with Michelins, and they are offering $70 off installation for Michelins.

Costco is good, and my experience with their tire dept has been positive. However if you can get the price matched by Discount I would do that in a heartbeat. Discount has hundreds of locations all over the place you can get flats fixed or rotations done. Costco's warranty service doesn't help too much when you go on a road trip.

I think you'd need to get an estimate from Costco for 4 tires and all the labor & disposal charges to know for sure if you're getting a better deal one way or another.
Also, I don't think DTC's $179 includes mounting them, disposal, etc. The free flats fixed is free regardless if you bought them there or elsewhere.

Brian,
Total out the door at Costco is $641.79. Discount is $701.96.
$60 dollah's is $60 dollah's. I gotta move on it today, for Costco's penny sale ends today. Although they do offer the deal fairly often.

DT are tire professionals. Costco sells big cases of toilet paper. Who do you want working on your car and tires?

Costco Customer Service is top notch and they offer an excellent product on anything they sell. Some of the Discount Tires dudes look they have been on the rock for a few days.

Yes DT will match Costco.
