So I went tire shopping today, as my front tires are bald with threads showing...
One shop (Bob Sumerel) doens't carry Pilot Sport A/S in 225/45-17, and it isn't in their computer for the S4, which means they weren't sure what to do other than try to sell me Toyo Proxes 4. I took the Toyo brochure and said great thanks, how about calling your warehouse to see what the prices are on the Pilots (surely they can install tires even though they aren't in the computer, right?). $265/tire. Damn, I hope that's installed!
Then I was off to NTB. They don't carry the Pilot Sport A/S in that size either, and their computer doesn't even show it as being available in that size. The guy was happy to sell me an H rated MXM4 though. He said they're really great, blah, blah, blah, he's really surprised they're in stock, blah, blah, blah. How about finding what I want instead of selling me what you need to get rid of? They'ere $150/tire. Total for 4 tires installed with alignment: $1,050. WTF? $400 for installation and allignment?
I guess I'll order from Tire Rack and find a place to put them on.
