Online. Tire Monkey.com They give you a list of local shops who install along with the installation price. Cheapest tires I've found.

Whaaa? 1K per tire? I am a pretty savvy guy when it comes to tires, and I can think of very few outside of supercar tires that cost 1K per tire. What the hell are you putting tires on? I can spend 300-400 each on really good tires for my car, but that's to get me almost .9g in grip and a top speed capability of over 170mph.


Jeep SRT runflats, those are 20 inch 45 series with a +150 speed rating, about 400 or so each.

Lamboghini Aventador, Pirelli Pzeros, 20 inch, 335/30/20, +186mph speed rating, $600 each.

Porsche 911 GT3 RS, 325/30/19s, custom made for that car alone, with an 80 wear rating that means they might last 5,000 miles, still only $750 or so. Most passenger car tires are in the 300-400 wear rating, and are good for 40,000-60,000 miles.

The Sonic next door has a problem with the noise, too.

And so as to not totally hijack the thread, I go to TiresPlus next to BJ's in California and have gotten great service/prices.
