Shipping cost from TireRack or local dealer?

[DUBGTI]

Hi guys,

what prices have people paid for shipping from TireRack for a set of 4 tires?

I am after a set of Pilot Super Sports in 225/45 R17 and I can get them for $470 after mail in rebate, but not sure on shipping as they have not yet responded to my shipping quote request.

Alternatively is there a local dealer that can do good prices? I am after a set asap as I'm running real low on rubber at the front

I paid $120 air freight for two PSS tyres last year

USD 135 per tyre in 225/45 R17 is a great discount that Tire Rack are offering at the moment.

However, do note that promotions or rebates are often valid for residents of the United States only.

Last year I bought 4 Michelin PS3 225x45x17 for $600 delivered to lane cove from Don Cornells Bexley. Sourced on EBay.

if you are planning to import, then try to pick tyres that are less than AU$250 each (not including delivery) and then you will avoid import duties and GST when they arrive.

for smaller tyres, its usually pretty lineball whether to import of go local, if you can get them on special here, pluse, you will get them installed and balanced if purchased locally.

I just imported 4 x275/30/19 last month and the delivery cost was about $330

From tirerack shipping option?

About a year ago I purchased a set (4 tyres) of Goodyear F1's 225/45 R17 and it cost $269.66 to be shipped via FedEx to Adelaide.
They get sent as a multiple piece shipment so two tyres showed up one day, and the other two a few days later, so don't freak out if you don't receive the whole set at once!

*also, I got ezy tyres to fit them (they come to your house) cost $25 per tyre including disposal of your old ones.

I assume you don't get a wheel alignment done by ezy tyre when they put your new tyres on?
