As an informed buyer I checked out a couple of online stores and found that the tires I want for my Banshee are around 70 bux each plus shipping & local mounting.

All my local shops showed me there book that says this same tire goes for 101.90 bux each, plus tax, plus Mounting, 10 bux each and an enviromenyal tax of 5.dollars each. So that total is to around 249.09.
I can argu the Enviromental tax off at a couple of shops.

Here is my question, Is this normal for shops to charge this much more than the online stores

Even if it cost 30 bux to ship +20 bux to mount its still like 58 bux less.

Items Price Quantity Total

ITP Holeshot HD
Tire Size: 20X11-9 HD - $12.00 $69.95 $139.90

Total $139.90 Plus shipping
This price is from Magic Racing minus shipping

When I showed them the price of Magic Racing they said there are prolly some hidden cost and they cant sell them that cheap.

What would most of you peps here do? Anyone here ever buy tires from Magic racing and if so how much was shipping?

Thanks for you help in advance.

 

um try rockymountainatv.com there prtty good with prices

 

That was my 1st search. I couldnt find ITP or Holeshot tires on there search engine. I found rims from ITP but not the tires.
Thanks fastblaster00!

 

check out ronnies or rocky mountain

 

IMO Magic racing is the best kept secret of atv parts. They are cheaper than Rockymountain, have better shipping and more knowledgeable and more helpful staff. I have bought 5 sets of tires from them and one from RM because Magic is just that much better. The only drawback is a more limited stock, but they can still order most items.

 

Maddog is right! I buy almost everything from them and have been completely satisfied.Their shipping is ultra fast.There are no hidden charges on their tires(your dealer wants you to believe that so you will buy from them instead).

 

rocky mountain does have those tires and the cost 69.95 a piece and there in utah pretty close to where you live.also they have 6ply maxxis razr for 48.99 apiece. ihave a set on my raptor and love them.if you get the maxxis youll save over 40 dollars plus get the puncture resistance of a 6ply tire.or they have 4 ply for 40.99.in my opion razr are the way to go.

 

maddog56, what was your shipping cost. Did you mount the tires yourself?
BURKEDADDY, I'll give R M a try later today. I couldnt find the tires there. Utah is 45 minutes from Me by air.
I've used both of these companies in the past. I Just didnt realize the cost difference in tires. I figured the online stores would make up some cost in the shipping.
Thanks everyone for all your help.

 

i didnt check online, i looked the tires up in the catalog.and yes it is normal for shops to get every pennie they can. when i got my maxxis razrs my local steelership quoted me double the price rocky mountain did.so i drove 70 miles to rocky mountain and bought from there.

 

When you get the tires, shoot down to WalMart and they mount them for about $3 a piece to save some coin. Welcome to the world of ATVs, an endless stream of money out of your pocket.
