I will only trust the Chevy Dealer.....my Dealer gets 129 for the four complete. Franchise tire dealers can be great to p poor all with the same name on the front.

You are in for a rude awakening with this type of thinking...

The Goodyear Tire shop in Marquette Michigan will not touch C5 runflats even after Goodyear factory rep intervention. I tried to get them to fix a run flat with a nail in it and they refused.

Discount Tire first got my car hung up on their floor mounted lift-thing, then when they could't get the tire dismounted they grabbed a crowbar!!!

Oh yeah, I have a big ole scrap on my magnesium alloy wheel.

I removed the wheel myself and took it along with a tire to a Goodyear center. I called ahead and asked if they were equipped to change a 275-40 runflat and they actually did a good job. Discount Tire will never touch my car again.
