I came on TOTV and searched tire dealers and found Wildwood Tires had a lot of good comments, so I went on their website. On the very first page you can search for any tire. I searched and the price and it was about right. I called them about noon and said I want to get a set of these tires. He said, any order before 3pm we can the next morning. He then asked, do you do want an appointment for tomorrow. I said yes, and that was all there was to do, no deposit, no nothing.

The next day I went in about 10am and they had the 4 tires and I had them installed. Wildwood Tires is on SR 44 on the left side just before reaching Wildwood Main Street, which is US 301. I waited on the tires, they have a counter and is manned by 2 or 3 guys and the phone rings constantly and people flood in the front door almost constant. Many of the people are locals and it's almost like sitting at bar listening to patrons talk to the bartender. They have their act together.

Here's a TOTV thread about Wildwood Tire.

I've not bought tires from Wildwood Tire but have used them for other service. I am tough to please and I was very happy with them.
