actually order tires online but not sure if it is a huge cost savings
compared to wal mart or not.

I will not buy a new tire sight unseen from anybody. Some years ago I
was part of an electrical crew that wired a new tire dealership. It
took a couple of truck loads of new tires to fill his racks. The
tires were unloaded and put in the racks by a temporarily hired crew
of laborers. He found out later that the distributor had sent him all
of his inventory of returned new tires. They looked new but were
almost impossible to balance. The correct way to receive a shipment
tires is to examine every one for take off marks and refuse delivery.
