The day i bought my car i went to Discount Tire and purchased Road Hazard Certificates as well as Lifetime rotations and balances. I recommend others do the same. They will replace the tire FREE of charge if you have an irrepairable nail or blowout etc..
Not to mention it takes them 45 mins or less to do the work. No long waiting at the dealer. |

Lazy I guess lol - the upside is with this hassle I will get the tire for less than tirerack.com has them listed for.
The ideal situation would be to have enough to just get a new set and move on but my house was robbed last week so the funds are a little low from the expense of getting my families life back in order. |

dont just buy the tire from dealer or anywhere else... there are a lot of people selling their full set for 500-600... one tire for 280 vs new set (including wheels) for 500-600.... pretty obvious what to do.

Positive update: though I know the majority of people would say to avoid Toyota service centers. I just had my new tire installed and they gave me a discount for my trouble on Wednesday. I got my new Primacy HP installed for $150.
