Never tried it. Out west we have a great local tire shop Les Schwab.
Are you trying to avoid the pesky sales guy, or are you looking to order a custom tire? If it's the former, you may reconsider. You may avoid pesky sales guy, but you will then have to deal with pesky installation guy. He can be just as bad. And since you didn't buy from him, he's going to tell you that he can't guarantee anything.

My Size tire is a wierd size and was looking at tirerack and was way cheaper than any of these local tire shops around here.I have a garage down the street from me that a friend from school owns that could put them on for me no problem. I just want to spend a whole lot of money for tires thats all.
If you need to compare tire sizes check out the link below at discount tire.

Don't is the word im guessing u left out.....Cheap tires are just that...CHEAP. They can do more damage and give you less service than any savings you might see on the purchase. These chinese tires are shipped over here in a ships hull, laying in all kind of crushed abnormal positions that they never recover from. They're out of round, belts slip within miles sometimes and it shakes your car to pieces because they cant get them balanced right without hanging a boat anchor on your wheels....Ive seen a tireman put 6 weights on a wheel to get 1 balanced...
Tires are not that damn expensive compared to the overall costs...get some decent ones at least. Mastercraft is a decent cheap tire that is usually avail most everywhere....

I did leave out "Dont" but Im not an English major so bear with me on that.The tires that I was looking at where Continetal Tires which have good reviews on them from what I was reading and for what Im driving they should be good enough for me.I understand what you was saying about tires from China and things like that but for the amount of driving that I do a year which is about 10000 miles if that as I live close to my job I was just curious to see if I could get a better deal thats all on tires.
Tirerack is awesome. Bought the last three sets . Can call them and teel them waht you are looking for. Very knowledgeable. They ship and refer you to a shop close to you to have put on and it is all quaranteed.Was refered to a tire i really wasn't that familar with and it is the best tire i ever got for my M/B Suv.
