Where to find Snow Tires Locally

Hey all,
Sold the A6 Avant when I got an 08 Passat 2.0 6MT. Love the car, need snow tires. The Passat has TPMS and those sensors are expensive, but nonetheless, where do you guys get your snow tires locally?
I am in Brooklyn, work in Great Neck.
Cheers,
E

Have you tried Tirerack.com or Discounttire.com yet?

Otherwise I would think that any tire place can get them

tirerack.com or discounttire.com and have it shipped to a tire center in your area

most online discount tire companies partner w/ installation places, you can find a list on their website when you put in your zip code...

or audizine.com or classifieds here to find a used set for sale

Tirerack is out of TPMS sensors and with the weather, I was looking to move quickly

I guess its best just to order and wait to the new year. I'll get steelies.
Thanks,
E

Do you have a mavis in the area?

go online, get pricing, negotiate and they'll beat tirerack's pricing if you do it right....

Sears will match Tirerack.com

and add $15 to make up for shipping.

I have a set of 15" Steelies with 1 season old Blizzaks that did not fit over my S4's brakes or my wifes A6.

If you have an interest, I am in Hartford.
