Somewhat surprisingly, Maguire, the local Audi dealer, has great Pirelli tires at a better price than I could get lesser tires at the Goodyear dealer. Probably even after the $40 Goodyear rebate offer that's running right now. Thus, I've made an appointment for Thursday morning to have the tires put on. I wanted to get that done before this Friday's trip up to Colgate for hockey; even when the weather's clear here, that trip often involves a little fresh or drifting snow. New tread helps.
