Does this explain his deranged politics opinions?
Maybe not on a damn island, but generally I found discount tire is amazing. Always really good word of mouth/happy customers. Sometimes I could find cheaper by less than $50 on a $900 set, but with the added convenience and service, was worth it than ordering from some rando online place that you still have to find a place to mount for you. (Sounds like you have that down for cheap at least, but think that's $40 even for cheap)
Try shopping via the closest location, I found the discount tire direct prices were sometimes higher than shopping thru a location.
