Singh only sells tyres though... So you have to go by someone else to have it mounted and balanced...I like to purchase because they usually have the newest tyres available... Not sitting down in a warehouse for a while before it is sold. There is also a good feeling of taking tyres out of the wrapping yourself.. For me anyway

Plus install/alignment comes up cheaper than buying at resellers.
Resellers charge 100+ extra per tyre install and balance and align is never $400
