Wow Daniel, That seems real crazy high, 4 Tires shouldn't cost that much to mount? (IMO)
Someone else here on the Forum that does this a lot, what do you think or know? (I didn't have mine put on yet ) SF

 

It wasn't four tires. It was two. Just the rear two.

 

Yup Daniel, I Know. I was just Saying, Even, (4) tires should not cost that much.
Sorry for not making it clear.

I paid $15 each to mount and balance the fronts and $20 each to mount and balance the rears, tirerack has a section on thier site that give s the best pricing on tire mounting in your local area. the dismount price is included and I kept my old tires to save on waste fees.


I think Discount tire ripped you off

 

That's what I was afraid of. I don't think there should be a dismount fee.

 

I just replaced my 4 worn original Michelin P/S (19k) with Kumho Spt from Tire Rack. Great, quiet ride. Labor cost by recommended shop by Tire Rack was $90 plus $20 for the TPMS.

 

I don't understand the extra $20 for the TPMS? explain that please..

 

wait these are only summer tires? . i want all season. does anyone know were i can get good performance z rated tires for cheap? and whats this talk about the tpms?

 

Discount Tire tried to do the same thing to me too. They said they had to replace the rubber gasket in the TPMS sensor. I was like don't touch it.

 

The TPMS was switched from old rims to new ones.

 

I paid $97 to mount and balence all 4 and I thought that was high...

 

I had 4 Kumho's mounted on my Miata last week. Mounted and computer balanced for $5 per wheel from an indie that I have used for over 15 years without a problem. Have Kuhmos on the Miata (2nd set) and on my wifes' Kia Amanti and just waiting for the Mich to wear out so I can replace with Kumhos. elfprofessor

Just so everyone knows, the price went up slightly on these tires for the rear. They are now $174....

 

Thanks for the Heads Up!
I'm glad I got my "Summer Dragon" Set on the Cheap!

 

So when you say "summer" only that doesn't mean you can't drive them in the cold as long as its dry right? I mean the compound of the tire is fine and we can indeed drive these in the winter as long as there is no slippery stuff. forgive the stupid question.

 

MAYAman,
Yup, Just No Slippery Stuff, that is correct.
BTW, I didn't say "only", you did.
