 GM Nostr!

Happy Monday!

Going to need to buy new tires this week...yuk. Hate spending money on stuff like this, but really need them (especially with winter coming).

Need a cup of coffee before I call the dealer to make the appointment...

 GM. 

Which tires are you buying? 
 Don't know yet...will see what the dealer might have on sale. Likely to just get replacements for the original equipment tires I have (worked well, good on the highway, not a lot of road noise and good mileage). BUT - maybe there's something better...

Any suggestions? 
 Ugh.

Tire rack. Ship to installer. Way cheaper or better tires for the same money.  
 No local installers (unfortunately)...and a real hassle to try and get someone to mount/balance as they all want to sell you the tires. (Just did that on another set of tires I had to buy...)

Still, might have to go that route if the dealer prices are out of bounds... 
 Blah. If that's your only choice, it's your only choice.  
 Well, there is WalMart... 
 Eeeeh... That's not a place I would want to go... 😅
