Any tire shops in ATL that'll pricematch Tire Rack?

I'm looking for some new tires for the 7, but real shops don't want to mount TireRack's tires and WalMart won't do it on aftermarket rims. Does anyone know of a tire shop in Atlanta that carries Sumitomo that might price match the Tire Rack tires?

you cant find a place to mount tires? come one now.

maybe im not used to how things work in the "big cities" but in toccoa i could get them mounted for like $20.

i doubt anyone will match it. theyll probably mention shipping prices. your best bet is dicounttire.com. they have a facility here in gainesville.

Crit,

I have had good luck with the Kaufman Tires right by Jeffery's. The head guy there is Curley. They always have some type of discount going on and if you get them to do an alignment at the same time I have been able to get a package deal. In other words, Tire Rack tires cost $x + mounting + alignment =$y. Kaufman out the door price = $y.

The problem is they may or may not have access to the tires you want, and may offer you something else.

That's actually what I did. I took my tirerack.com tires to the Mexican used tire shop behind the house. They did a great job for $40.
