I would take the tires off the vehicle (put jacks all around)...take them off the rims myself and take the rims in for the new ones, have them mounted and spin balanced, I would take the old ones home and throw them in the pole barn...I could probably find 4 @ 55$ to 65$ per .....for a total of around 300$...
Thing is, if you tell the dealer what you drive they will only price you tires for that vehicle...If I tell them its for a toyota camry.....cheaper by a few hundred...
Yeah, I know..frustrated...township trustee, who lost his election a month ago..put tons of river rock down (4 years ago)..and folks are torqued off...no one is getting 1/2 the mileage the tires are warranted for...before this clown was elected I was getting within a few thousand miles on a 50000 mile tire....now not even 20000. New trustee won't enter the pic until 2013..and he ran on the platform of "I will fix the roads"...
Appreciate the feedback. Undoubtedly I will end up paying around 140 - 160$/tire...balanced..valve stems and tire disposal fees...Which are itemized separately from the other costs...

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
