The local Toyota place will fill all the tires with nitrogen for
$30.
Is it worth it? Thoughts?

The COSTCO store here filled your tires for free. Thay claim you
don't
lose
air pressure during climate changes. (fall-winter etc)


They didn't fill my tires. Don't you be making up lies about my
tires.
Enough is enough.


Talk about owls down by the stream or something.

Sorry...if you weren't such a cheapskate, and actually bought quality
tires
there, they'd take care of you.


You got me. I don't buy *any* tires at Costco. I don't like seconds..


Is there something wrong with the Michelin Cross Terrains on my
4Runner? I'm sure they're not as good as the Uniroyal Tiger Paw GTS's
you've got on that pink RAV4.


As usual, I appreciate your advice and friendly attitude.

Huh?
I have 17" Toyo A20 Open Country tires on my SUV.


Spectacular tires! Although you may want to be a little careful in the
snow:

I'll probably dig into the piggybank for a grand and put new snow tires &
plain steel wheels on all four corners.


I should add...for the November-March time period.
Hopefully, tires should last 4-5 years.


Sounds like a plan. You might consider these:

I had Forteras on my pickup. Loved them. And, they shouldn't set you
back a grand. Well, maybe 'cause you're in Canada. Couldn't you drive
into God's country and get them? Surely the Canadian customs don't
keep track of the kind of tires you leave the country with.

I will tell you, in my opinion the worst truck tire in the world is
Goodyear Wranglers. When I bought my Jeep new, it had them on.
Couldn't wait until they got old so I could get them off. You could
balance and rotate them damned things every week and they'd still ride
rough. Bought my new truck, guess what tires it has on it? Yep, and
the same thing. Everyone I've talked to that has owned them said
they'd never buy them again.
