Tire Shop Recommendations?
 
Does anyone have a preferred place to get your fun tires?
I'm looking to grab a set of >200tw tires

Thanks!

I can wholeheartedly recommend Honeybee Tire. Honeybeetire.com

They’re at each of the HOD PIR track days and are otherwise mobile.

Edit: sorry, just noticed you’re in SEATTLE. Achtuning or America’s Tire

If Costco carries the tire you want, I would wait for it go on sale (they alternate brands like every month). Then take a scrennie of their final price and show to Discount Tire (America's Tire) for price match and get it there. I just got new tires last week from them. They do contactless installation where you drive yourself into the bay and sit in your car while they change your tires (they even hand-torque to spec). All done within 30 minutes of your appointment time whereas if you go to Costco, you can expect to wait 2-3 hours.

Costco refuses to put tires on my car since my wheels aren't the OEM sized wheels otherwise I'd go to Costco. I go to A-N-T tires instead (also known as Trackside Motorsports), but I'm in Portland.

If you see a deal on TireRack, they can ship for free to the Seattle distribution center in Burien, WA. It can save you up to $40 in shipping
