Best oline Tire source

Post by motojoe »

Hello to all,
Suffering one of the worst winters in memory here in East Cental Illinois. Decided to go ahead with some tires for the spring. I will go back to Z6's this year. So if any of you have a favorite tire place, please shout out. Thanks

Motorcycle Superstore http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/12 ... Tires.aspx or SWmoto http://www.swmototires.com/ , both are good. Which ever one has the best deal at the time! All the tires come from the same distributor anyway.

I have noticed that at any given time , that these online retailers will have different prices and specials. You also want to factor in if there is free shipping or any shipping cost involved. Sometimes the lowest price I find on a tire, charges shipping and vice-versa.
Here is a few I keep saved.

I have also used motorcycle superstore as well. Good company and prices.

Last summer I had looked around at all the online places and, when I factored in shipping and mount / balance without buying the tire from whoever would do it, I was really surprised when my local dealer gave very close to the best online price I could find and mount & balance for $15 !! Wasn't worth the hassle of DIY for that.

I just about didn't check, but thought why leave any stone unturned.
