   i don't.   
      
   support your local community by not buying them online. i've been using   
   Cooper tires purchased from the same locally owned family business for   
   the last 30 years. that kind of loyalty, when you walk into a business   
   and they treat you like part of the family, really pays off well when   
   you need something in a pinch.   
      
   what happens when you purchase tires online and find out one is   
   defective after the tires are mounted and driven on? defects happen,   
   nothing is perfect. yeah, good luck getting that straightened out.
