Tires from Costco or Sam's

Purchasing tires from Costco or Sam's. Is it a good idea.

I give a real good thumbs up for the COSTCO tire departments in at least two local COSTCOs that I have dealt with. The free tire rotations are also a bonus. I've watched them install two sets and do two rotations and they are the only one I have seen to actually torque the lug nuts properly even using actual hand torque wrenches in two stages. In fact every vehicle they actually look up the torque specs and set the wrench before installation which is a very positive sign in the training they employees get and something you don't even find at some of the major tire places like National, Discount, Merchants, Les etc. Finally, just like WM items their nationwide availability is something to consider if you travel much.
