    Yesterday I dropped my wheels and new tires at a shop in So. Burlington
called Dave's, on the recommendation of a lister.  They got to those today
and realized their machine couldn't do the low profile stuff without
damaging the rim.  So I loaded it all up and went to the conglomo VT Tire
Co.  They said no problem, looked at the wheels and tires, and then tell me
it'll be $140+.  Well that doesn't sound right to me, usually costs about $7
per wheel.  Then he points to the sign and says $30 for 16" mounting, we
don't support our competitors, usually it's $7.50.  Sure I'd love to buy
tires at a local shop like this, but their prices are exceedingly high, but
$30 for mounting tires that were bought somewhere else?  Seems a bit silly,
just a note to those in BTown.

Cheers,
