so in sept, when i need a state inspection, i'm anticipating new tires. at that point i think i'll also include an alignment.

on previous vehicles, i've purchased tires and had them installed at costco (low price for install, comparable price for tires).

the question is, will a discount installation place have issues with the tpms (has anyone had any issue with them?), and since i need an alignment anyway, should i have the dealer do the install (maybe purchase the tires online)?

thanks in advance for any advice.

 

Buy them from Tirerack, have them shipped to NTB (or any other reccomended installer on their website) and get it all done there. i bought the 5 year unlimited alignment package for my G. i get an alignment every 6000 miles or so... i think the package was only like 180 bucks... which isnt bad considering just one is like 70 or so bucks.

Dont go to the dealer... i saved about 50-60 bucks a tire by buying online. sometimes its even more than that.
