just ruptured my tire, i need to buy a new one

went over an unseen pothole today, my tires done, i need to buy a new one the cheapest i found is here

http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....ason&code=yes&

i was wondering if anyone has bought from them before and if they're service is good, also i am thinking of getting the road hazard program they have, for $11 i think its worth it, my tire had less then 1000 miles on it and if i run into the same problem it won't cost me $180.

let me know if i should buy from them, or if you guys have any other recomendations

Another round of ICE
tirerack.com is outstanding. I've purchased 6 full sets of tires from them, all with excellent service, and the prices speak for themselves. It is very convenient to explore the Installation tab to have the tire shipped directly to their authorized local installer.

They have excellent customer service and the shipping is very fast. I just bought a set from them on Tuesday and received the tires today (Thursday). I highly recommend Tirerack.

It always feels safer to go to mercedes but honestly for something like tire mounting and balancing, tirerack does a great job.

JPD - aren't you in California?

If so, go to Discount Tire or AMerica's Tire.....www.tires.com

They will match Tire rack and give you a FREE pro rata road hazard.

Further, the peeps at Discount are far superior "tire" techs than the kids at the dealer.

I spent 7 years working for DTC and can tell you that we worked on far more SEMA cars than any MBZ dealer.
