what is the problem with discount and some of these tire joints these days.

Tire barn is just as bad. Anymore, I just order tires online and take them without the car into a local shop and pay 8 bucks to have them mounted and balanced. Otherwise, they try to push this or that on you
$8 ! wow I thought I got a deal other day when I carried 2 in f or mount and balance for $10 ea! ha most of them want $15. ha
