My Michelin's were just $39 each with a 60,000 mile warranty (that I would
have received had they installed the tires on the car). Wholesale clubs are
beautiful things. I priced the same tires at National Tire and Battery and
the set would have cost me $160 more (total installation cost at both
places). They are expensive, but after riding on them I can't stand
anything else. I guess that's why they are normally so expensive...I find
if I get anything else, the more I hate them, the less they wear down, and
I'd feel bad replacing perfectly good tires.
