Default any good tire shops in the south bay

I'm about due for some new tires and was wondering if anyone knows of any good tire shops in the south bay that has prices that comes close to tirerack prices. No, i don't want to order from tirerack since it would negate any savings once i get the tires mounted/balanced.

Not really South Bay.. but more or less the south bay

Auto Innovations in Milipitas. I got my 2 rear Khumo MX's for 260 out the door. So that's only like $60-80 for balance and fitment if I recall.

Give Orlando a call, he'll hook you up .

Good luck!

well i'm from milpitas, so thats close enough . do you have their number so i can get info on pricing for 4 tires. I assume its not safe to have unmatched front/rear tires of different brands correct (still have a lot of tread left on my front two tires)

Personally.. if your front two tires are nice tires, I wouldn't worry too much. I'm running pretty high-quality street tires in the front.. A brand called Wynstar, and in the rear, my MX's. ANd it handles just fine. So I don't know how "unsafe" it really is..

But Auto Innovations number is 408.956.8004. ASk for Orlando. And, if you need it, get an alignment A++++ service for both tires and alignment. I'll only go there from now on .
