Sears has Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 225/50/17 on sale for $189.00 a tire.
Sears has them on sale for $189.00 a tire with road hazard and tax it comes out to $774.86 mounted and balanced depending in where you live is could be cheaper because of taxes. I live in cook county IL taxes are %8.75. They are also on sale at Tirerack for $197.00 with shipping their cost is $818.36 for all 4 plus you have to get them mounted and balanced which is probably $10.00 a wheel at your local NTB. Tireracks price does not include a road hazard either. We all know the stock Craptenzas suck! But are these Pilots really that good? Compared to what I've seen others pay I think $774 is a descent price. They are on back order and will take a week to get in and I think the sale is only for this week. Any feedback on these tires would be appreciated. Thanks.

If you want the A/S's (lol)
and don't want to spend so much, get those Sumitomo HTR+ tires. Come in 225/45/17 (edit: you can get 50 width, but not sure about with 225. Tire rack for 99, probably less elsewhere!!) but these things are 99 bucks a tire and read the reviews, the difference between pilot sports is negligible. Seriously consider em

Which Sears store exactly in Cook county did you get this quote? I just called one of Sears and they said that $189 is for the tires only. If I install 4 tires with road hazard it will be over $900. I'm also in Chicago area. Thanks.

Sears at Golf Mill, Niles IL. Maybe the guy was wrong on the phone but this is the price that he quoted me and this is the price that I have them on hold for.

Update on Backorder
I just got off the phone with sears and they said at worst they won't have them in until 2nd or 3rd week in January. It gives you time to save...call and get locked in at the $189 price!

They are on backorder (6 week, I heard), which sucks because I think I have a bad tire, maybe a belt slip or something. I'm not too sure if you can get the sale price on special order tires, either. Like Virus implied, just call and find out.

I got the same tires from Costco in NJ for less than $200 each. It was an additional $8 for moutning, balance and stem. Road hazard is included.
These are the best tires and make a huge difference in the way the car rides. I wouldn't put anything else on it. I have about 20K on the new ones and there is still plenty of meat left and the ride is just as good as when I got them.
I only got 32K out of the OEM's....... Good Riddance.....
