If you order them together they mount and balance them.Might be an extra charge for it though, and i would call in the order.

you might end up paying more for shipping, watch out for that too. shouldnt happen but sometimes shippers do weird things.

I could never understand mail order tires... What do you do for warranty?

It is hard to beat the price. And for the price difference you can by an extra pair of tires. Plus most tire warrenties are pro-rated.
I have mail ordered my last three sets of tires. I started mainly because back in the day, I couldn't find Interco tires locally

Never dealt with Summit but the experience with another mail order outlet= for warranty take them to a local dealer of the specific brand. Once at the dealer you get told to take them back to where you bought them. Most local dealers are savvy to the mail order situation and realize that they aren't going to get your business by taking care of someone else's warranty.
With that said you can figure the cost from a mail order source including shipping and take that to your local dealer and add in the value of having some one local for warranty and other services and discuss pricing. I know a few outlets are advertising that they beat Costco pricing, etc.

That's been my experience. I also like being down in PDX area with a wobbly tire and roll into a Discount/America's Tire and they'll get me taken care of immediately. My experience otherwise has been hit and miss. I've had some shops boot me out since I didn't buy from them, while others have no problem fixing a flat gratis. A few bucks per tire gives me the peace of mind when I'm away from home, cranky, and broken. :D

That's a good deal, and they SHOULD mount them if you're buying the package together.
I DID call Summit and confirm they have the 33" Trxus in stock. They are the ONLY one in the country to have them, on national backorder everywhere else.
