What should I do

i need to buy some stock tires to replace my old ones. i have called around the shops in my area and they all trying to charge me around 700 for tires and having it mounted. since its so much i was thinking bout just spendin a couple hundred more and gettin a package deal off of wheelmax.com. the only thing is that with winter coming should i just get new stock tires and save up again for a package deal or buy the package and put them on even though it might snow in my area?

700 hundred for tires is ridiculous. 400-500 range seems more reasonable.

Should cost about 10-20$ a tire to mount and balance

my local pep boys do it well for cheap like 50 bucks for all 4 mounted and balanced? If i recall correctly... I was going to get them balanced by a hunter machine but all the places were charging like 25-40 a tire!
