Moving My Boxster to Central Florida

Hello Forum Members,

I am moving to Florida, near Tampa and of course I'm taking my Boxster with me.

Since I'll be needing new tires I wanted to poke on your collective wisdom as to what would be a better option. Should I order a set from let's say Tirerack and have it delivered to a local PepBoys for installation and balancing? Or should I seek a local installer that might give me a better deal? Does anybody have a "tire guy" in this area that might be able to help me out?

Thanks for any help you can give....

Discount Tire Direct is having a pretty decent sale right now. Prices include shipping.

I've used them plenty of times and had my tires installed at a couple of different places, including a local Walmart that's done a great job of taking care not to scratch my rims.

Kaufman Tire is a big chain in the central FL area had offer pretty aggressive pricing. I've never used them as they are not local to us. My brother in Tampa has used them without issue.
