My G37S is going to need new tires soon but I really don't know the best protocol for purchasing and having new tires installed.

Is it best to buy them online from somewhere like tirerack and have them shipped to my dealer for installation? Or should I just find a shop near me and pick from what they've got in their show room?

I'm not looking for anything too spectacular, the stock Bridgestone Potenzas were just fine for me.

 

call around, i just went through the same process for the M5... Found a local shop who could get me the tires installed including tax for just a tad more than online resellers wanted for them delivered.... I think your avg local tire shop will charge between $25-35 per tire to balance and instal.

 

Alright, thanks.

Also does anyone have any suggestions on how to manage having two sets of tires (Summer & Winter) if I live in an apartment building with no extra storage space?

 

Please give me a call, I'd be happy to help.

 

When I get closer to purchasing time you can count on it. I've gotten close to 15k miles on these potenzas but it's time for them to go.

 

I've had great experiences with the tirerack. No real useful advice on storing your tires though, I had mine in my apartment back in the day.

 

It really depends on if the local shop can match TR's prices and if it's a reputable shop that can mount, balance, align...etc.

I've used TR and discount tire for years both are great. Unless you don't care on the tire and just settle for what the local shop has and regards to spacing been there get all seasons and save the head ache.
