I’ve started to buy tires off eBay and take them to a small local tire store. Les Schwabs has fallen off and now up for sale.

I know the Schwab guys too well having worked there years ago and got tired of being worked over on price and taking “non” Schwab tires in for mounting. Last trailer I bought Maxxis off eBay and saved almost $300 from what Schwabs wanted for the same tires. Ok sorry but I’m sorry their “sales and service” just are not there anymore.

It’s been hard. I feel like I’m cheating on an old friend having bought from them for almost 30 years.
