Default Tires in the Dallas area

Does anyone in the Dallas area know of a cheap place to get a new tire? I'm not going to go with a duncrap again, but any suggestions of places or tires would be appreciated. And I don't want a really cheap tire, just a place to get one that's not going to be the price of the dealership and is going to be a good tire.

Dallas,
There is no way a stealer is the cheapest.In fact, they are the most expensive I have found. I just bought a new back tire. I called all the dealers, they all were $159 for a back tire. I got the same tire online for $107.

Yeah, I need a back tire. Mine has a nail in it and is getting worn down, though it has some miles left. I might as well replace it I guess. Or maybe I should put some of that slime stuff or something in there in case the nail comes out and then I can get some more use out of it. I dunno. Wbogley, what tire did you get?

Yeah, kinda reminds me of the time I broke my leg and my ankle was barely held on by skin and flesh. I figured, might as well go to the doctor I guess.

Cheap place to get new tires? In the Dallas area? That's funny! Actually, it's pretty sad. Tires around here seem to be at a premium.

CycleGear has a store in Plano, and Bedford if you want to ride all the way out here.

http://www.cyclegear.com/store_locations.cfm?State=TX

The cheapest rear tire I could find was Pirelli 66 Route (I guessRoute 66 was already taken) for$95.99. 150/80H-16. You might get lucky andfind one in stock. If not they have to order it. However, the pic online showed white lettering on the tire. I don'tthink you want that. Other than that (cheap), stock Dunlop 401 150/80B-16 for $124.99. They might have to order that, too.

I think your best bet might be to order online, but it's up to you. Good luck, and I wouldn't wait too long to repair it.
