Depends on what type fo tire you're looking for. I got my Falken Z912 for $65 each off of discount tire directs ebay store . They do free shipping.

Go to Les Schwab, and buy the Falcons, then you get mounting and balancing for free.
If you buy tires online you always end up paying for mounting and balancing so it's really not any cheaper.

The Falcons are a good suggestion. These are popular recommended replacement sizes and the prices from discounttiredirect.com (with free shipping):

BTW, the price is usually so much cheaper online, that it pays to buy them this way and have them installed/balanced by Walmart, for example, for about $10 a corner.

185/60/15, Falcon 912, $68
195/60/15, Falcon 912, $59; Falcon 512, $56
205/55/15, Falcon 912, $77; Falcon 512, $77

What kind of mileage warranty do the 185/60/15 have?

Go here: discouttiredirect.com

Check out the tyres and the mileage ratings.

If you're about to change tyres on original steel wheels, I'd suggest 195/60/15's as a recommended replacement size.
