I've bought several sets of tires online from Simple Tire. Shipped right to the door. Sometimes WAY less expensive then locally and don't have to wait. Got a set for the Polaris Ranger that are 8 ply, don't think they need air!!

Used to use Discount Tire a lot, they had some killer rebate deals, but they aren't nearly as good as they used to be. Never tried Tire Rack.
I bought a tire machine on Ebay and do most of my stuff myself now. Saves a trip to town any time I need to patch a tire, and save quite a bit since I can order tires online and put them on myself. It's $15 to have a tire patched now, $10 just to swap one, the machine pays for itself pretty quickly, plus there's the convenience.

Same here. Seems I seldom have flats any time other than nights and weekends!
I've got an old Coates, does good with everything other than those 14 ply trailer tires - I wind up sticking a 6' digging bar under the table to help it turn.

Got a cheap Harbor Freight tire machine. Had to beef it up a little, but for trailer tires it works fine. Order off SimpleTire.com and they are $30-50 a tire cheaper than tire shops for the same tire. I don't balance trailer tires. The car and truck I will go to the tire shop so they get balanced.
3/4 ton pickup. It pulls the cattle trailer a few times a a year, but not as often as other people. Driving on gravel roads and snow.
The Toyo M-55 sounds like a good tire for the Pacific Northwest, but I don't need studdable mountain tires.
