They did for me. Of course the price they matched included the shipping and
then they added mounting, balancing, tire disposal, valve stem replacement
and road side hazard replacement (those bastages) ended up being about $380.
Oscar does look mighty fine with his Hankook shoes though and I love the
ride!

Discount Tire says they will match price but the really do not.  I tried
this route.  Feel free to give it a shot.

 

I have ordered 8 RA08's so far.  4 from onlinetires.com but they no longer
carry Hancook.  The second place was treadsource.com but I cant seem to get
their site to come up. 

 

Bus Depot is great but their shipping quote on tires is wrong.  You will
place your order and they will call you back with a higher shipping cost
unless that has been fixed recently.

If you print out the order page showing total cost with shipping
Discount Tire will frequently price match.

If you mail order them call around for mount/balance. A mom-n-pop will
frequently be cheaper than a chain.
