In a place the size of Cortland you must have at least two shops that deal in tractor tires. They'll also be able to supply you with rims. Look in your local yellow pages.

Any savings you realize by going online will be gone as soon as you pay the UPS bill to have stuff this size shipped. It'll cost hundreds to get two tires and two rims trucked halfway across the country. Believe me, I looked into it. Perfect Firestones were $385 each locally, no-name "buffed" blemish tires were $300 from a guy on ebay. Problem with the blems is that it would cost $150+ to truck them to me, and I'd still have to drive 50 miles to go pick them up at the shipping depot in Buffalo. The Firestones were 5 miles away.

That was back when diesel was $2.50 a gallon.

What is the fascination with getting this stuff online? Are people that afraid of dealing with people face-to-face?
