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 Nat

I agree with Frank here, I use the local tire guys here in Durham and we are surrounded by WalMarts, Sams Clubs, Firestones, etc. The local small tire place was the only place that had ever seen wire

I have some Firestone Deluxe Champion retreads ($6 each - bought in 1969) on 4 sprite wheels out in the garage. They have been holding air for 30 years! That stuff is classic Southern California smog

I am running Michelin 155/80/13 on stock disk wheels. These were the ones that my local tire shop put in the newspaper ad as the ones you could get for $19.00. He told me these were at his cost and j

That's a old 4X4 trick. place jack near bead , jack up vehicle, break bead, rotate tire and jack again as necessary. Flip wheel over, do other side. This is allot easier with a high lift jack.
