I like being able to remove the tires each year and have them re-balance for free. So I do not buy online or mail order tires.

I got my last tires (Maxxis) online from Discount Tires on Ebay. They offered the best price and when I took them to my local Discount Tire shop they mounted them for free because I bought them from the chain. They also balanced them and I think that is a life of the tire thing as well. I also got the road hazard warranty so if something ever happens (and they've got stores all across the country) I can get another one at a greatly discounted price or almost for free even. It cost me an extra $30 a tire for this, but at $140 a pop (which by the way is a great price for 16" Maxxis tires) it's worth it! Keep an eye on Ebay.
