Aluminum wheel/tire combo

$500 for aluminum wheel and tire mounted, doesn't seem like a bad deal to me.

Makes me wonder about one of the buses for sale here that the seller claims has $5k in new tires. Never did answer when I asked what he had for tires.

If they're Goodyear or Firestone I can see a set of tires running $4k. The drives on my Colorado were new when I got it and they were $660 per tire!
