[s-cars] Tire Recommendations

[Joel Rector]

You guys think I'd be getting ripped off at $790 for 4 225/50 16" Toyo
Proxes T1-S tires mounted, stems, balanced, disposal of old tires,
everything done and lifetime rotation?  That's what the only local shop
in 50 miles that stocked Toyo tires quoted me.
