Tire Information

I think you missed part of the point - the prices were not the same. Without asking, the price from the dealership was $59 less than Revzilla. With an additional $100 rebate for Dunlop Pro mounting, for some of us, the whole process becomes financially reasonable. 
 
Similarly, 2 y ago, without any negotiation I bought my Shoei X-14 from the dealer for more than $100 less than the Revzilla "sale" price (i.e., MAP)
....

Good points of course. I have never seen lower prices than online, and definitely not at that magnitude of a discount, and if I had seen prices like that it definitely would be worthwhile going to the bricks and mortar place.

As for the mounting / balancing my own ... if there is a place that would vulcanize and mount my used tires they would get my business (including tire sales) and I would not have to keep buying tire mounting apparatuses. Replacing tires just because of a silly nail is a sore point with me, and that is what all of these tire sellers like to push. It is simply wasteful and not environmentally friendly.

As for riding ... still have not ridden due to this blasted heat and humidity. Drove the truck to work today ... Angry
