I used to use Discount/American Tire for my previous cars. When I needed new tires for my E46, I checked with them but at the time they didn't a good selection nor have many of the tires they did list in stock, though their prices were reasonable. Ended up buying at Tire Rack, having them drop shipped to a local shop for installation.
A while back I suspected that I had a problem (one tire kept running low) so took it to Discount to have it checked. Fully expecting to have to pay for the work, but they checked all the tire/wheel sets for leaks, checked/balanced them, etc. all for free. Wow! Only thing was that they were keen on rotating them in spite of my explicit instructions not to do so. But I was watching it all closely and stopped them when they started to remount the wheels. They did have a replacement tire available, just in case, but it wasn't needed.
