275/55r20 ain't THAT bad....
Nokian Rotiva $106 (no mileage warranty though),
BFG Rugged Terrain $122 (somewhat tacky prated highway tire dressed up to look like an LT AT, doesn't ride too bad though),
bog standard old reliable Hankook Dynapro $123
Goodyear Wrangler $133
Cheaper LT tires - 130-140
All shipped free of charge to your local wally and tax-free unless you win the 1in48 "from your local state" lottery
Seriously guys, learning to use the internet can save you $500 or more in 10 minutes of effort!!
I am on the 18" wheels. The Rotiva ion Since you said shipped to your local Wally, I assume you are looking at Wal-Mart. In California, it is $25 per tire to mount with the road hazard warranty, and then another $15 in state fees per tire.
When I look there the Nexen Roadian is $132.06. Goodyear Wranglers start at $211.99.
Hankook Dynapro $166.19.
4 tires + mounting and state fees and 8.25% sales tax - we are talking in the $800+ range for out the door prices.
TireRack - Dynapro is the cheapest on your list they have $172.95, let's you ship to installer, but doesn't provide price quote for installer so not actual OTD price.
TireBuyer.com - Hankook $162.95, Nexian $168.21 (but $80 instant savings on checkout so $148.21 per tire) - Cheapest installer in my zip code is $49 not including state recycle fee, and state disposal fee.
I think one difference we are seeing in this thread is comparing Out the Door prices with them mounted, balanced, road hazard warranty, tax and other government extortion vs. the tires alone.
Government extortion - So they charge a Tire Recycle fee that is supposed to fund recycling tires, but then also charge you a state fee for tire disposal. NOTE: Even if you take the tires home for your daughters art project, the state still requires the disposal fee.
