Best online tire site?
Just wondering if there are any sites I've missed as I look for my summer tires.
Generally, the most price competitive I've found is www.biketiresdirect.com.
The knowledge base of these forums is amazing, thanks in advance.

Don't run red lights, wear a helmet, use hand signals, get some cycle lights(front and rear) and, FFS, don't run red lights!

It depends on closeouts. For instance, Michelin Pro Race 2 tires are now being phased out. There might be a hot sale going on and then it dries up. If you go to probikekit or biketiresdirect, they might be out of it and then try fullcycles.com

I've found some great deals on ebay.
A pair of Michelin Carbon folders for $17; new (+ $6 shipping; such a deal!).
Even got the yellow stripe to match the princess's Orbea!

Amazing customer service I received my return shipment right after (about 1-2 days) I sent the return back.

BikeTiresDirect usually has the best prices on tires, clothing, components, etc.
