Mitch Posted November 18, 2020 Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 (edited) I can tell you this, I'm more likely to use Tire Discounters for service due to small "gestures" such as free tire disposal. Smart business, IMO. You're right on, Aaron. My vette had a leaking TPMS. Took the wheel to them, they asked if I'd do them a favor and come pick it up the next day, because they were slammed. No problem. Go in next day and they fixed it and said no charge, because he's a car guy too. Damn sure I went back to them for tires on my most recent car.

Crossle Posted November 18, 2020 Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 Just out of curiosity, on avg how many tires do you sell a month? Or how many are they picking up when they shop up to scrap them? Not many to be honest, we offer tire installation as a convenience, not as a money maker. We charge $125 for mount/balalnce. They probably pick up 40-60 every other month or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tire Disounters tried that same thing with oil changes (as a convenience not your local oil change stop)They rarely got aggressive on oil change prices.
