New "toad" tires
I decided to put four new tires on my Malibu today. The size is P215/60R16.
I went to Walmart first. They wanted $960.86 for four Michelin X radials, mounted, balanced and lifetime rotate and balance.
I then moyesed on down to Sam's club and they gave me a price for the same Michelin tire, 80,000 mile warranty, same rotate and balancing deal. Their price was $474.33. Theirs was a special discount price for buying 4 mounted tires, today and tomorrow.
Guess which one I took? That's less than half the cost of Walmart's deal. How do you figure that one??
All four tires were "born" in late September, 2009
