Re: rebates
I suggest looking up your tire size on the DT website and select tires if interest. The rebate will be listed per brand and terms.
I’ve used DT for maybe 6 yrs. seems to have attention to detail in their operation.
One early sat am as I was getting setup I saw a tech checking balance calibration on a balancer. SOP I was informed.

My trip to DT, the tire changing area was clean, and the workers hustled. They seemed to be enjoying their jobs.
Seriously, I have at least 10 brand name tire vendors within 8 miles of me, and I drive 40 miles to go to DT. It even looks different.
I told the manager it was the first time I'd ever seen a tire tech actually using a dial torque wrench when installing the wheels. Most places just "buuuurp" an air gun.
So when they were putting my GY Endurance back on, I just said "100 ft/lbs please." "No problem".
Airstreams aren't a thing they train on, so don't be shy about how you want the jack to be placed. He listened, and did it.

I put the tires in my cart but see zero promotions going on now. I’ll wait!

Ok no current rebate try calling the store and ask if then know when or if one is coming up. My store seemed to know the cycle for them.

Did they lift the AS with jacks placed under the axles?

Have done business DT for years good service.Have found that most tire installers are required to service tires to max rated pressure of the tire or what is posted on the car/truck because of liability.
My trailer tires rated at 80 PSI and that is what I run them at so I have max load capacity.

We have used Discount Tire for years on our vehicles and Airstream. We absolutely love their service, support, and prices.

Second all that on Discount Tire. I had a valve stem malfunction on my AS in San Angelo State Park (TX) this year. I did a quick wheel change and took the wheel into DT - it was very busy. They took the tire immediately and put in a high-pressure stem - no charge!!! I put ten bucks into their coffee fund. Great folks.

You might want to check the Michelin website as well. I bought four Michelin tires back in July or August. Got a 10% rebate from Discount Tire in the form of a $116 MasterCard, but I also applied for and got another debit card with $100 on it direct from Michelin.

When we replaced our tires, GYM to GYE, Discount had matched and beat the best prices from Goodyerar. Plus there were rebates, there was an additional rebate if you opened up their credit card. Plus they also used heavy duty/metal stems and replaced all of the lug nuts with solid ones at no cost.
I asked about road hazard repairs in areas they had no stores, the manager said take a picture of the failed tire when you buy a replacement, keep the receipt and see me when you get back home, we'll take care of it.
So yes, I will return for my trailer tires.

We too have been “saved” by Discount Tire” on the tow vehicle and the AS. We keep their roadside warranty on both

Another plus for DT. We used Les Schwab for years up here in the Pacific NW but service was highly variable from one store to another. Finally gave up on them as did several of my friends. They only do tires. No brakes, batteries, etc. My only complaint, they are always swamped with business :-)
