I've bought my tires from Appalachian Tire for the last year or so. Never had anything but the best of service from them.

I really like Phil's. Met their crew at Mid-Ohio and they were very nice folks. But shipping from them to my door is outrageous.

I ordered a set from Toyos Only and had no complaints other than time.

I've never ordered from Appalachian.

The last two sets I've orderd from John George. Competitively priced, shaving was great, shipping was reasonable, and they were at my door in very short order ... less than a week after ordering them.

They were shipped in boxes, not just banded together.

I know John, as a racer, has a rather sorted history with this group. But as a supplier of racer parts, I don;t see how any one can complain. And if it wasn't right, trust me, I'd be complaining. :wink:

I have always had great service from Phil's.

I have had good service from Toyo's only. One set was not shaved well, but all the rest have been perfect.

I got my last set for @ $800 shaved and shipped... They were 0310 code with $15 each shipping and less than $50 to ship all 4... no they weren't in a fancy box, just bundled...

I am trying to get do a group buy (probably not at that price) if anyone is interested....

Me 4. Just got some from John and it was easy and Toyo Bucks was no problem. Price was the same as anywhere so I would rather deal with someone local.

But Toyo is proud of those 18's.

I know John, as a racer, has a rather sorted history with this group.

Excellent command of understatement, Mitch.

I've bought nearly all of my tires from Toyo's Only, as they provide some unique support for our racers that no one else does. Brian has been extraordinarily supportive at the last two Nationals (he broke down rims/tires so we could tech them, put them back together, and refused to charge us a dime).

If you have Toyo bucks that are close to expiring, contact Brian w/Toyo's Only. He'll help you out.

x5 John George - can't go wrong there and has always been competitive, fair and quick shipping.

A++++

Who cares if a coordinator had problems and issues with him. Has nothing to do with this post. Move along.

I'm pricing CMC1 tires any interest in other sizes? I'll want at least one set in 1 size 'tween now and '11.

Might even get a full tread set for rain at Nationals.
