Which tire shop did you use to receive the tires
from Tire Rack, and what was their install fee?  Last
time I considered ordering bare tires from TR the few
shops I called were shall we say, unenthusiastic about
installing tires from Tire Rack.  So the last couple
sets I just went to Americas Tire on Brokaw Rd.  They
matched the "magazine" prices and the installation fee
was reasonable, but the CA sales tax hurts.

I'm trying to nurse S4's stock tires until ski season
and hold off until next spring to buy new Hi Perf
summer tires.
