I know, it’s time to start your holiday shopping, so the last thing on your mind is your tires. But let me tell you, there’s no greater gift than you can give yourself than the safety of your family. That’s right. Tires are more important than most people think, especially now that the weather has turned cold and wet. Tires are your first line of defense from losing control of your car. Driving around on bald or worn tires can lead to disaster. They’ve lost their ability to grip the road, and that can mean a crash.
But worn tires can also mean blowouts that can cause an accident or leave you stranded in an unsafe area. That’s why we check our tires regularly and replace them when they start to show signs of wear. And yes, they come before any holiday shopping. We’ve given tires as gifts to our adult kids, and we’ve given each other snow tires as our Christmas gifts. They last much longer than presents which are tossed aside soon after the holiday.
New tires provide safety and stability for years (depending on your driving habits). Plus, during the holidays we tend to travel more. Trips to the mountains to ski, across the state to visit relatives, and to grandma’s house just a few miles away. Having new tires means we’ll save gas on our trips too! Properly maintained tires are a proven way to reduce gas consumption.
Think about your tires before the holidays are in full swing and if you need to replace them, now is a great time. Sam’s Club Dare to Compare promotion (#DareToCompare) allows you to shop for Goodyear, Michelin, BF Goodrich, and Pirelli knowing you’re protected with their all-in price matching offer. Each purchase includes their Tire Installation Package* which includes tire mounting, tire lifetime balancing and rotation, a valve stem, 24-hour emergency roadside service, and no-charge tire lifetime flat repair as long as you remain an active Sam’s Club member.
How do you take advantage of Sam’s Club’s Dare to Compare Price Matching Offer?
Geat an “all-in” quote from any other tire sales and installation retailer and take it to the Sam’s Club Tire and Battery Center service counter. To be valid, the quote needs to be written with the past 7-business days and be printed on the retailer’s/dealer’s letterhead. The quote must be for the same tire – same brand, line, load index, and speed rating (service description) as the one you’ll be purchasing at Sam’s Club.
To qualify for the Sam’s Club equivalent tire products, they use the following table: Sam’s Club will compare the club-specific tire line to the equivalent general-market tire line. Sam’s Club considers the following tire lines to be equivalent and will price match accordingly:
Club-Specific Tire Model
|
General-Market Tire Model
|
Pirelli
|
BFG

Before you start your holiday driving, stop by your local Sam’s Club to have your car check out and new tires put on, so you’re ready for whatever winter weather you encounter. Where will you be headed for the holidays?

We just went to Sams last week and paid $475 for some new tires the same service would have been $780 at Sears. We had our Jeep gone over fluids checked because we will be going out of town wanted it to be in tip top shape.
We shop at Sam’s Club monthly as well as we we are shopping for large ticket items. We have 3 autos which we take to our local Sam’s when it’s timre for new tires. We always have the best service and we leave feeling good about our purchase. Everyone wil be traveling to ur home for the holidays.
It allows you to shop for Goodyear, Michelin, BF Goodrich, and Pirelli knowing you’re protected with their all-in price matching offer.
Thanks for the contest.
I had no idea you could get tires at Sam’s! We are looking for new tires and they seem to be very affordable there.
We are shopping for new tires for our car! What a great thing to know that Sam’s offers amazing tire service!
I didnt’ know Sam’s had a matching offer. That is good to know!
I need some new Winter tires this season! They are a must have.
We travel a lot so I always keep a close eye on our tires. I’ll have to check out Sam’s the next time we need tires!
When we have to get tires, Sam’s Club is our go to place. This comparison chart is really helpful.
We always keep a close eye on our tires. My brother owns a tire shop so he’s taught me how important good tires are for safety. We’re heading to the Wisconsin Dells with freshly checked tires!
I love companies that will price match, you can shop with confidence that way. I also think tires are a huge investment in many ways so it’s smart to get the best quality, after all, it’s dangerous out on the roads!
What an awesome deal. I wish I had a Sams Club close to me but I live rather rural and the closest one is just too much of a drive.
I know all about this. It’s a great deal. Love shopping at Sam’s because of all the good deals i find.
I wish I would have read this a few weeks ago. We just bought new tires for our van because we were worried about going into winter with bad tires.
This is great! We don’t have a Sam’s Club here but if we did I’d love to head on over I hear great things!
I did not know Sam’s Club sold tires as well. It is so important to have the proper tires for winter driving.
Sorry about that! But it’s great you got your tires all ready for winter driving.
What a great way to make sure you’re getting the best prices. This will be great for some winter car prep.
My husband does all the car stuff, AND we have a Sam’s Club that we love nearby. Thanks for sharing this. I’ll be sharing this with my husband.
Thanks so much!
My dad swears by Sam’s tires. He used to always make me go there for all my car needs!
I will tell my husband about this. He is in charge of all the car stuff at our house.
