Just wondering if anyone did or would buy tires off ebay ??

The Tc is going to need new tires soon & my new Rota's for the xB will be getting tires in the spring.

I saw some good prices, but what are the chances the tires are deformed, blemed, or unsellable in a store so they made their way to ebay ??

My thought is if I even considered it as a bad idea, then more than likely it is a bad idea :nails:

Is it to risky ?? Any experiances ??

Opinions are welcome

I've bought a couple sets off of ebay and didn't have anything wrong with them. They were all brand new. I've even bought a set of rims for one of my cars on there and they were still sealed in the box and didn't have a scratch on them.

Would you reccomend anyone or were they all just random sellers ?

go to discount tire (tires.com) they are offering free shipping on all tires, im looking for some 19's for one of my cars, and they are actually cheaper then any place i have found on ebay.....plus they have a warranty (if you buy it) and they are a reputable company....no complaints and i have bought about 6 sets of tires from them....

Glad to hear some good stories, I think I may try it out. I just hope I don't get burned :nails:

Kilo6_one , I have been considering www.tires.com as well as an option :wink:

I have always sworn by www.tirerack.com, but things are tight right now with two 05 Scion car payments.

Anyone else got any input, reccomendations or experiances for me ?
