Don't make the biggest mistake when buying ATV tires and rims. Read on to find out what you should know.

I don't pay retail for ATV tires or rims because the internet has opened up so much competition. I either talk the dealer down or buy online at a trusted site like http://traxms.com that has free shipping. If you are buying a mounted set of ATV tires and wheels anyway, then you can just bolt them on yourself no problem. Just talk to someone who knows what bolt pattern and offset wheels you need. You don't want to try to ship them back.

If you are unfortunate enough to live in a state that has a steep sales tax then you definitely want to buy ATV or UTV tires online. The tax savings can even offset the expense of having them mounted at a local shop. Find a site that is based in another state and can ship from a warehouse that is close to you. Even if the ATV tires and rims come from a warehouse in your state you may not have to pay taxes to the retailer.
