Customer Reviews
We will get our next set of tires with Discount Tire!
Employees were very professional and informative. They were able to accommodate my schedule and promptly communicated any changes.
This is the OEM tire for my wife’s Mercedes.This is the second set I got, not because they were worn, but we’re over 5 years old. I’m a retired tire store manager (not from Discount Tire) and also chose to install Continental tires on my SUV and 4WD truck. These are quality tires, and I recommend them highly!
One tire losses air very, very slowly, requires air three times in 12 months.
