RE: got tires (was: new tires to pass inspection)

I ended up getting Dunlop SP5000's.  205/55/R16.  I like them a lot so far.
Haven't had a chance to drive in the rain yet.  The car had Goodyear Eagle
RS-A's when I bought it.  I got about 39k out of them.  These Dunlops have
a higher tread life so I should be able to get more out of them.

National Tire and Battery is a rip off.  They don't even have a website which
surprises the hell out of me.  I got the tires for $114 a piece (not bad) but
they charged about $130 in labor to put it all on, do an alignment, etc.
