I did that with the Vredisteins I got from tires easy....tire factory was
outrageous prices.t O mount.
I went with a small shop..
$30, mount and balance with new stems...then that guy wanted ,$10 more ,
each , as a recycling charge...the local dump recycles for free...
These seem good after about 3k miles, and next week they'll head through
snow country as I go to my dentist Mexico

Hi all.

I hope to travel into US soon and thought I'd get new tires at start
of trip but would rather not wait around a day or whatever for
delivery of tires.

Has anyone successfully had this tire delivered from a web based
company like Tires-easy to, say, Discount Tires, Les Schwab and had
them install the tires? I don't see Vredestein brand listed on either
company's web pages.

That Vredestein sure does look like a good all 'round tire choice.
