I should have never ordered from… I should have never ordered from Tirebuyer. They made the ordering process easy, but only two tires have been shipped and the other two are lost somewhere in my City. Tirebuyer just keeps saying "give me another 48 business hours to look into it," and they won't help provide information so I can just pick them up myself. Meanwhile our car continues to have a flat tire all around town, getting stuck on the side of the freeway and having to fill it up several times a day. We need these tires and I would have just bought them from a local shop if I knew how much hassle it was going to be. Plus $45 per tire to ship it... it should take two weeks to receive the shipment. I have at least three check-ins with Tirebuyer with the same thing every time: "give us another 48 business hours." I would never purchase from them again.
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us, and we truly apologize for the frustration you've experienced. We only recently became aware of this issue and discovered there was a mix-up with the tire size based on your original order. We're actively working to exchange the tires and ensure they're delivered as quickly as possible. We completely understand how challenging this has been for you, especially with the urgency of your situation, and regret that our follow-ups haven’t met your expectations. If you need further assistance or have additional concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out directly.

I do not recommend this company, it sells old tires for the price of new ones. This company sold older than a year tire for the price at new tire. Agent on the chat asked me it's everything. It's ok for him.

They are a scam, made Order on the 13th for $300+...2 days later cancelled because they were "out of stock". Made another order on 17th different set of tires $300+. 4 days go by with ZERO updates so I decide to message chat support who then tells me this order was cancelled due to "out of stock". This is not a coincidence. They are taking $ knowing they cannot fulfill. Any positive reviews are very clearly paid for/fake. Do not waste your time, energy or money on this place.

I ordered tires on July 2nd to be installed on August 12th and I received no indication of a scheduled time. I called the installed and they had no idea what was going on. I then chatted with a customer service agent and told them the situation and that because of the installer not being very reliable. I was given the tracking number and told the installer will call me. Did not listen to what I said. I cancelled a perfectly easy tire sale because of poor customer service.

I drive a lot of miles a year so the tire is good but I gotta change tires every seven months. TireBuyer ships the tires to my home and I send them to the tire shop. I’m satisfied so I recommend them.

I was looking for no tax and possibly their own personal rebate so they ain't always the exact same price I can buy anywhere. Their website wasn't difficult to navigate. I bought Grabber A/TX twice.

TireBuyer is competitively priced if not cheaper than brick and mortar stores. They also allow me to schedule with my installer in one convenient location since I ship the tires to my installer. They're kind of a one stop shop and that's what I appreciate about it. I used to go with Bridgestone Firestone because they would let me schedule online, then the last time I had to have tires mounted, I used a local company here that had done some work for me. But either way, TireBuyer has a ton of convenient installers and I'm not having to look around for somebody to ship to. Aside from that, they carry the brands I like and they usually ship out of the Knoxville warehouse on the same day, so I get excellent service times from them and that makes for a very good overall experience for me.

Having the tires delivered and installed at a location close to me and seeing courier prices are fixed were big selling points for me. The last time I used TireBuyer's website, it was perfectly fine. It was easy enough to filter down what I needed. I've used TireBuyer for my truck and then also my wife's car. Every time, it was pretty clear and concise. There are a lot of details and information that you can get into with tires, but it kind of gives you that helicopter view for a while, if you need to dive down you can to get the results. So that was good too. Because most people don't know the speed rating or the load rating for tires. They just know that they need tires that fit their car.
If anyone's ever looking for tires, TireBuyer is the first place I'd tell them to go because not everyone has the time to go buy tires, go sit in a place and then not know that you're getting the best deal and not know what your price is when you get there. TireBuyer was like, "Hey, this place has a charge for disposal or charge for the tire pressure system." It was all upfront and that made it that much easier.

Working with TireBuyer was easy. It was point, click and order. I ordered some tires for my Jeep and they came. I had them installed and we were good to go. I’d order from them again.

I like their price and the locator service where I could have it installed at a zip code that I choose. The purchasing process was easy. When I got the confirmation, I got there, they said, yup, they had received it. Everything was ready and got the tire put on. They did everything as I expected.
