They were not lying to you. The rears do wear down quicker. As someone who drives for a living I can tell you that’s true. I can also tell you that the fronts usually only wear fast on the inside and outside corners from turning or if you have a bad alignment. Having uneven tire wear can cause other mechanical issues with the vehicle itself. Not to mention if your problem is too close to the sidewall they won’t patch due to liability reasons. Discount tire is by far the best tire chain in the USA. We have had a fleet set up with them for as long as I can remember and on more than one occasion they helped me out and didn’t charge me. The major chain I say to stay away from is NTB. They will up sell you and they are actually supposed to try to. I’ve had my fair share of dishonest experiences there.
On both counts. I've never had a problem with Discount Tire even with fixing flats on tires that I didn't buy from them. I had numerous bad experiences with NTB. At one time, I thought that NTB was affiliated with Sears.
