If you need new tires (expires 7/2/2023)

Ebay is offering free tire installation on a set of 4 tires purchased through 7/2/2023 (Source).

Several tires are also being discounted on there. I've seen several brands with discounts between 25% and 36% (Goodyears seems to have the highest % discount that I've found) over the past few weeks. And yes, the two promotions are stackable.

I just ordered a set of Hankooks for the Prius C for $300 + tax, including free installation. Without the deals and with paying for installation myself it would've cost about $500.

Not paid to promote this -- just figured I'd share in case any of y'all need new tires and want to save some money at the same time. For me, the savings is about 5000 free miles, which is about 40% of my yearly driving.

How do you get eBay to install your tires exactly?

Apparently they have "installation partners."

Ahh, I see. So you don’t email them your wheels and they swap on the new tires and email them back to you then.

Usually they just ship them to you. With this promotion you pick a local tire installer near you to ship them to and you set up your own appointment through Caradvise. Usually it's cheaper to have your own local shop install them and not go through Caradvise (their install is $100, most shops are $80). But it was a free installation so I figured why not. Ended up with great tires for the same price as cheap walmart crap.
