I am a big believer in Discount Tire. We never had any problems with Costco, but the Discount tire people (or America's Tire in L.A.) are fantastic, the service is fantastic and the willingness to help in different stores when you have problems is fantastic. Costco is fine for buying them and having them installed, but you have to wait for them to have time for things like flat fixes. Discount Tires will l take care of it in a few minutes.

Granted, my car hasn't been to either of these places. But it probably will be when it next needs tires. My "known factor" tire shop is 3.5 hours away from where I live.
