Covering Albany, N.Y.; Los Angeles, Calif.; Dallas, Texas; Louisville, Ky.; Fargo, N.D.; and Macon, Ga., retail tire marketsduring period of July 2-3.
Tire Review and InteliChek (formerly PriceChek) present up-to-date tire and service price information from U.S. metropolitan areas.
For this monthly feature, InteliChek directly contacts a selection of independent tire dealers, mass merchants and car dealers to obtain current pricing on replacement tires and vehicle services.
InteliChek requests and verifies retail prices via phone calls, using specific vehicles, tire sizes and vehicle services. In that way, direct and useful comparisons can be made by readers.
The tire prices shown in this report are for tires only, and do not include mounting/balancing or any add-on warranties or other services or fees. While InteliChek allows the retailer to suggest a tire brand, efforts are made to steer the retailer to providing prices for major brands to allow for true apples-to-apples pricing comparisons.
The services chosen for these surveys include a standard oil change (oil plus filter), a standard four-wheel alignment and front brake work (replace front pads and turn both rotors).
