Bridgestone Ecopia 422 ; 175/65-15 for $56.60 each ( before taxes )

through GM parts department by matching Tirebuyer cost of $81.60 each ( ECOPIA EP422 Tires by Bridgestone at TireBuyer.com ) and $100 rebate through GM ( http://www.mycertifiedservicerebates.com/pdf/GMN.pdf ) . The free shipping / handling is a must , otherwise any S/H charges are added to the price . Some GM parts departments may not match the internet price of Tirebuyer or other sellers that may have a lower price without a S/H fee making for a better deal . Purchased the 422s' for a 2011 base model Fit . Last , the 185/65-15 Continental Pro Contact w/ Eco Plus for 2nd generation Prius could be purchased for $60.05 each ( pre-tax ) using same method . Tirebuyer price is $85.05 with no S/H fee , PROCONTACT ECOPLUS Tires by Continental at TireBuyer.com . Good Luck .
