| Geez! These tire prices
I bought a set of Michelin Cross Terrains for the M Class a little over 1 1/2 years ago. I paid $142.00 each taxes, balancing included. I just priced the same set to put on this summer and they were $954.00! That's $386.00 more in less than 2 years. I know oil has went up, but dayum!

Yeah, they're so expensive now. Still looking for cheaper, but still as good tires. OEM keeps coming up again and again though.... |

As you know, the dollar has been in free fall for awhile now. It's going to make a lot of things more expensive  |

I just picked up a pair from the VYC tire store on ebay, used, for $64.95+ shipping. It was $99.95 for both total. They came in and I had them installed early Saturday morning. There was about 66% life left on them, so I got a wheel of a deal (pun intended).
