The Car Detective has searched far and wide for discount motorcycle tires for our visitors. We utilized the same criteria that we use to arrive at all of our automotive resource recommendations:
Surprisingly, true discount tires are very difficult to find. Some online companies that we researched claim to offer discounts but we found that their prices didn’t really reflect that much of a price break. Just because a company tells you you are saving money doesn’t make it so. You have to do an apples to apples comparison, taking into account taxes, handling fees, shipping, etc. to know if you are truly getting a lower price on your bike wheels.
Other companies that we came across during our research offer discount tires, but a very limited selection, i.e. only Dunlop motorcycle tires. So if you happen to like one of those brands, you might be able to take advantage of the deals. However, if you’re one of the majority that prefers another brand, or a different type within that brand, then you’re out of luck.
A few of the sites we investigated have some incredible discount motorcycle prices, but we couldn’t reach anyone on the phone for days to inquire further. You always have to be careful when it comes to dealing with a company that you can’t speak with or otherwise contact. Any reputable company will have someone who you can talk to, ask questions to, help you out with order issues, etc. You’d be surprised at the number of websites we found without phone numbers.
After months of extensive research, we can confidently recommend J & P Cycles for the best selection of discount motorcycle tires and wheels. In addition to tires, they have an incredible selection of motorcycle parts and accessories.
Take a look at J&P if you’re in the market for pretty much any brand including Dunlop, Metzeler, Michelon, Shinko, Avon, Pirelli and more. They often have deep discounts of up to 40% or even more, plus rebates and other specials. They have a really easy to use tool where you can either enter your motorcycle information (Year, Make, Model) and find parts that match your bike.
For tires in particular, you enter the position (front/rear), the rim diameter (10-28) and the width, as well as any other details you have on the tires. A quick search will find all of the tires that will fit on your bike. You can then sort them by most popular, price, rating, etc. to narrow down your choices.
