I have not found this to be the case for quality tires, provided you are buying the brand that is on sale at the time. One single time in the past decade, I found basically the same price from another vendor, but every other time Costco has beaten everybody else.

I'm only talking about same-tire comparisons. I don't shop for the cheapest tire that fits the vehicle. When I'm looking, I'm looking for a specific brand and tire for the vehicle (Bridgestone and Michelin for the last several purchases).

+1 for all of this ^

There are cheaper tires out there. Costco does not sell low tier brand tires. They sell high quality top tier tires, at cheaper than anyone else.

Michelins, Bridgestone, BFG.

They include road hazard warranty for free, which is a considerable add on at most places, and theirs tire centers are widely available.

I understand. I don't look for the cheapest but the top tier is just....dayum.
