Would anyone here be interested in doing a tire day at NTB 13230 S. Cicero Ave Crestwood IL 60445? Im actually gonna head over there right now and talk to the sales manager about the idea see if we can get a group discount. Is this anything anyone here would be interested in doing?

I like the idea as long as you can find enough people that need to replace tires at the same time. This could be difficult to do since tires aren't something like fluids where it can benefit by doing ahead of schedule. Now if alignments were included (and they can do them to my specs) then I'm definitely interested.

Talked to them they said all i have to do is let them know when and they set up tents outside and let us use half of the parking lot like a car show type deal, it seemed like they were not fans of the discount lol

Somewhat off topic, but I took my car to NTB in Arlington Heights last weekend - they do custom specs and they also accommodate lowered vehicles. I'm pretty sure all NTB's are set up the same way.

I'm not sure if I can post pricing information here, but if you're interested...feel free to PM me about it.

at the least, NTB should match Tire Rack's prices - Discount Tire does this (matches any online price you bring to them).

^What kind of tires are you looking for? I can probably get you a stealer deal. Give me the info, so I can give you a quote.

I need new rear tires. Any good info would be appreciated. I'm currently running 245/40 18 Falken Ziex 912's. It's my second set for the rear and I've done about 4k on these. Inner tread is completely bald while the outside is pretty minty. I had an alignment begining of last season and still didn't help. Them being directional sucks as well.
