Yeah, you're probably right, but if I change them before they blow I don't get the pro-rate discount.

The tire I blew on the way down I got 50% off the new one. This last one I got 60% off.

I've been buying my tires at Walmart for about the last 8 years and I don't think I've paid full price for a tire since I switched from 16.5" to 16" rims and I had to buy 7 of them about 8 or so years ago. And there's always a Walmart just up the road.

The price of tires has really gone up lately. 3 or 4 years ago the Uniroyal Liberators that I use cost $96 now they are $140.

Edit: I should clarify that I have paid full price for the front tires though as they don't blow. They used to cup real bad, but since I started rotating this last pair they have worn really nice. I have almost 60,000 miles on them and there's plenty of tread left.
