I don't think there is a more expensive way to buy them. They will charge more per tire and will probably charge you for installation. |

A few years ago, I shopped around for a set of winter tyres for a Toyota and the best deal was at the Toyota dealership. I also got a very good price from the dealership for winter tyres for my Mazda. |

Your Toyota dealer must be better to deal with than my Honda dealer. Their price per tire was quite a bit more than it cost me at a nearby tire dealer. Honda was going to charge for mounting and installation too. |

It surprised me, particularly as I had not found them to be generous before. In Calgary, I had always found the best deals at Kaltire but in this case, they were more expensive. These days I can't be bothered with storing winter tyres (on rims) so I pay the dealership. Changing them is then combined with the Spring and fall services. It makes life simpler. |

You should lease all cars, instead of buying. That way the mechanics have better access to the car to keep it going and at possibly less charge to you. |

I've leased 16 cars in my 50+ years for that reason and the tax benefit of owning a business. |

Leasing is a rip-off unless you're using the car for business and can write it off as such on your taxes. Otherwise you're paying an exhorbitant amount of money up front just to drive it off the lot then paying a "car note" every month for a vehicle you will never actually own. Jill |

Once John described his electric car acceleration as "just like a slot car." That got my interest as I did go to a slot car place once when I was a kid. The thought of a human sized slot car is good. That would be a fun car to drive. |

The owner of the shop had so many problems with the front tire he now has a policy that he will only install the tires he sells. No more mounting tires that people bring in. He had to take it back in last week. The front tire was completely worn and had developed a bulge. He got only a season and a bit out of those tires, 12,000 km. Not such a bargain. I had my tires replaced at the same shop last year. I had got 22,000 km out of mine. |

Try to remember your leaf is driven by coal fired power and just think of the damage you do to the environment with those jettisoned tires! |
