I went from the Toyota dealer when I picked up my Yaris and purchased a tire warranty from Discount Tire. I paid for itself the first time I ran over steel through the side wall. Discount has been balancing and rotating them for free for four years now. I've got 58,000 on the BridgeStones and wear bars are showing on all four. The only time they went out of balance/round badly was when my son was learning to drive. They stay round and in balance longer at 74 MPH than they do at 55 MPH. Go figure.
