After bringing my car in for service today and mentioning that one tire seemed to be loosing air, I found out that it had a nail in it, in a place that could not be repaired. Also, two other tires are very low on tread and have a couple of unsightly buldges.
So it's time for new tires.
I checked out my options both on line and locally.
Here's what I found:
ONLINE
The Dunlop SP Sport A2 Plus costs $53 online at The Tire Rack.
You've got to add $32.10 for shipping and then it's going to cost $130 to install, for a total of $374.10.
LOCAL
Compare that to dropping off the car at the Goodyear Auto Service Center on Boylston Street tomorrow morning at 7:00 AM, for a total cost of $400.
That's a difference of $25.90.
Descision made. New tires all around and drinks for everyone!
