Does anyone have some sort of discounts on tires? I’ve got a hernia in one of my tires. The quote i got is ~210 bucks. Ive got Continental Contact Pro 235/45/17. Can somebody please help me out in the Albany/Saratoga area? Any help is appreciated. ---

tirerack looks to be 123 +15 shipping, total of 138, call it 140, mounting and balancing is like what 10 bucks? so call it a 155 with tax and all that crap. better than 210 albany roads :headbang ---

I think mounting and balancing runs a little more than that, but if you can get a deal on that, then yeah about 10$, it takes just a few minutes. ---

a mount and balance should be about $15-$20. if you are around on friday give me a ring. my buddy works at warren tire, i might be able to accommodate you for free on the mount. ---

it helps if you have the wheel off the car, usually cheaper. Try JD Tire on central, ask for travis hes a buddy of mine and a good guy when it comes to that stuff. p.s. if i still worked at adirondack id do it for free and you get you a tire at cost… ---
