Dunno about paying a premium....

There's also Tire Central or KE Tires around the 626 area. I usually go to KE Tires, but since my car's so low I can't clear the driveway... I started going to Tire Central. It's 13 bucks to mount at Tire Central, 15 at KE if I remember right.

In OC I go to Tire's Warehouse. Don't get shit mounted there though, it's 20 bucks a tire.

I recommend Tire Central in San Gabriel. I go there all the time, call before you go though because they're always packed.
