I found a place online that has the tires for $718.38 + $87.99 shipping + $80 to have Discount Tire mount and balance them. Total = $886.37. I called les schwab and asked if they would match and they said no. Looks like I'm going with the online site.

My only apprehension is what if the tire blows out under warranty? How does that work with an online dealer? I wonder if it's better to pay the extra $143.63 difference at les schwab (even if I hate them)?

Went ahead and bought the T1r's from www.td4l.com (tire deals 4 less). Total with install will end up costing me $886. Thanks for all the input from people.

I had 19" Toyo T1R's installed mid-April, so far I'm happy. Nobody could give me a good reason to pay more for the Michelin PS2's.
