Between Monday night and today Derek and I have had them tested.... and then researched tires out a ton. I have never had to buy tires. I know 26 yrs old and Derek and I have both never bought new tires, I have realized we were both very spoiled.
As a teenager if I ever had car problems I would call my dad and he would tell me to met him somewhere and he would fix the problem. Derek would always call his dad and his dad would tell him to go to the shop and he would pay for it.
Well now that we are married this is the first big car purchase we have had to make. And we hated it! $420.00 for tires....that is crazy to me. It covered the 82.00 per tire price. The $16.00 installation, and the $2.00 price per tire to throw away the old tires.
Crazy, but the good thing is as much as we travel from Mesa to Lancaster these new tires should last a long time.
I guess this is what it is like to be on your own, even though I did call my dad often to ask him if a certain tire was good or not. I have to say I am truly grateful for the simple road that both Derek and I had in high school because of the hard work our parents did for us. I only hope someday I can offer the same for my children.
