I checked tire rack and discount tire. Both sites had 33's cheaper, I got them from discount since they were cheaper than tire rack

They could have a sale right now, who knows

They won't go lower because they factor in shipping.

Is Town Fair Tire a New England Tire Store or does anyone else have one in their town ?

I found these guys will beat any store’s prices.
They even throw in the mounting, balancing and Road Warranty.

I did my shopping then went there, they beat the lowest price by $10/tire, I will be going back for the new tires.
