Default Need New Tires

My truck needs new tires and I want to stay with the 245/45/18 Toyo T1-S, my local tire shop wants $1224.36 and I didn't see the Toyo's on TireRacks site, but I would love to give Brandon the business if he had Toyo's. So my next question concerns onlinetires.com, they want $784.25 for the tires shipped to my house which looks like a sweet deal. Has anyone else had any experience with them, if so can you let me know how it went, thanks.

Yeah I know, I guess that's what makes me a little nervous, i would just like to find someone who has bought tires from them to see how it went.

Did they call you back, I only get a recording. I left a message yesterday but nothing yet. I'm all set to order my tires and I'll post how it goes.
