...not understanding your "short hand"...do you buy the tires on eBay...or do you buy the tires on discounttire.com? Or does it not matter...and you can look up tires on either site (with discount tire being the seller if using ebay)?

I thought for sure OP was a spammarbot but appears maybe not. His prior posts are all weird and terse and generally "something on sale" related but doesn't seem like he's specifically spamflogging any particular vendors, and his account has been around for years...
SO I pulled out my Enigma machine, and decrypted his message as best I could... seems like he's referring to this:
https://www.ebay.com/rpp/67626
^^^^ Which is a much frakkin easier way to convey the information..
Does seem like a good deal... I might need a fresh set of wheels/tires for a car purchase soon unfort probably won't be confirmed until after the damn thing asspires.

I saw this yesterday and almost deleted it.
I got my Toyo tires (235/45ZR17 and 295/35ZR18) for my '33 from Simpletire.com. They beat TireRack.
They usually have a 10-15% discount off their listed prices and ship free via FedEx.
I have also bought from "TireBuyer" - which is apparently web-retail sub-division for one of the big tire wholesaler (I guess some of their retailer customers were pissed about this, when customers would come in and quote prices...).
Their prices can be very good or can be similar to T.R. - word is there's zero customer service though, so if you think you want anything but "get new tires, never talk to them again" then TireRack is far better...

The tires on my Z3 are from tirebuyer on eBay. They don't offer roadhazard warranties (for obvious reasons) so when I rolled over a huge nail and popped one of my tires, I had to buy a new one. Think even with all 5 though it came out cheaper than buying 4 (indy 500's) at a brick and mortar store.
I will have togive props to
My buddies a t Discount Tire for this. I’ve used the road hazard warranty several times, for rotation and balance several times, and when I buy all four tires I get one tire for free practically. Love the guys, they are great. And nationwide coverage for all your tire needs. Especially if you get a flat in the road. In tom your nearest city, and they’ll take care of you.

Qsilver7, I apologize for the confusion. I purchased the tires from ebay, the seller was Discount Tire Direct.
Thank you GG for the link. I do lean towards using my words sparingly. Never any disrespect intended.
I am honored to have responses from the three most knowledgeable and respected members of this forum.
Pretty good prices. Two Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S in 245/40/18 would cost ~$340, which is $25 less than they are at Costco for me.
