Discount Tire Direct
I'm soon to order my summer tires from DTD.. anyone care to share any experiences they might have had??
I see that they add valve stems and replacement certificates (totalling almost $100 extra).. should I just remove those items from my checkout cart or are they something I would need? Thanks fellas. |

Used them before when i got my Hankook V12s. Had the best price and shipping took 3-4 business days.
I did not include the tire warranty with my order, if i remember correctly you can still purchase it later on if you do run into a problem.

You posted on another thread looking to mount tires; why don't you get your tires from Tires23 or Simply Tire instead; they are very competitive, and you save yourself the hassle of buying from one place and then having another place install them.

Because even if I factor in mounting/balancing costs with DTD, I am still saving over $100 dollars

Remember to factor in gas money, food etc. :-)
For $100 bucks savings only, I would do it locally. That was what I did. Turned out to be about $150 savings only which wasn't enough for me to make the trip down to the states. |

i've used DTD before, they have the BEST customer service and the insurance (tire replacement) is WORTH IT!!
I bought one tire from them and they asked me if i wanted insurance for the other 3 tires, i told them that i didn't buy the other tires from them, they said it doesn't matter, i bought the certificates. Couple of month later, one of my tires got fked up, gave them a call then they sent me a new one no questions asked, didnt send the tire to them and no pics needed. I was surprised, i told them you guys dont need some pics to prove it? their answer was "we trust our customers" I had 2 options, send it to mtl was gonna cost $70 (includes shipping, taxes, duties, etc) or send it to the US for $30. I sent it to the US cuz i was gonna go to pick up some mods anyways, plus i ended up not paying taxes on the $30 since its a replacement lol.

I've probably bought 20 tires from them over the years and I've never had a single problem. Excellent customer service and fast shipping, plus I find myself getting discounts now every time I buy from them.
Living right by the Washington border, I have them shipped to the U.S. I've calculated that I'm paying about 70% (mounting, taxes included) of what I would pay if I bought them from a local b.c. tire store.
