Look at discounttires.com too via their mail order dept; no tax & free shipping if bought online; $68 to mount/balance at the local store on Harrison/Cary P'way; just got Falken Azenis ST115 & am very happy w/ them, not sure what size you're looking for. B/w tire rack & discount tire you can price & read reviews on just about any tire.

yes...addl. $3/tire for picking them up. Just call ahead and set up time.
New shoes for less than $200.

I did mess up earlier...its in asheboro, not asheville. 2.5hours away.
