Hello neighbor. If you don't mind the 40 minute drive to San Gabriel, check out Tire Central in San Gabriel off of Walnut Grove, just south of Broadway. I've bought two sets from them already. Great guys there with great pricing, especially if you pay cash. Call and ask for Donald or Alan. You can haggle with them over the phone and then setup an appointment if you agree on something. Good luck!

I must be doing it wrong then, cause tirecentral quoted me 572 for 4 tires. I told them I wanted the cheapest and they said the cheapest they had was Hankook, wtf...

I haven't been to Tire Central in a couple of years, but I've bought some cheap tires like Nexen from them before and they've always been the cheapest. I'm pretty sure they can get just about any brand in about a day or two, but maybe they meant Hankook were the cheapest that they had in stock? Also, I think they charge you tax if you pay by credit card so I always pay with cash.

If you want something cheaper, ask for a cheaper brand, I'm sure they have some in the 300 to 400 dollar range.
