After you decide which tires to buy--I noticed that at least one other
intelligent poster gave you some great advice on brads--I can provide some
advice on how to save money. For the next couple of weeks, buy a copy of
the local newspaper or the newspaper of the largest city near your home.
Check for ads from any stores that sell tires. If you see the brand of
tires that you want--buy them from the tire store that has the best sale
price. I was able to use this approach to get four tires for the price of
three tires from a local tire store. Also--visit your Sears store about
once a week and get a copy of their tire sales information. The local
Sears store rarely ever publishes in the newspaper info. about their tire
sales.
