Good tires in the area?

Does anyone know of a good place to purchase tires in or near Davis Square?

the tire insurance i've always bought has more than paid for itself over the years! you must have better flat-tire karma than i, lucky man.

It only pays for the tire itself, not the installation or the disposal. Only covers the tire if its within their stated time frame and/or % wear on the treads. I view it as Vegas where the odds are always in the favor of the house.

Also, if you keep your tires around the prescribed pressure range, you'll experience less punctures from road hazards. Low pressure gives less traction and is more susceptible to damage.

i got my tires from Direct tire, and the insurance DID cover installation and disposal, so it always worked out. i think we just lived in a bad area - haven't had a flat in ages, but when we lived in watertown, both vehicles regularly had screws or glass through a tire.
