I decided to get all 4 tires so I wouldn't have to worry about constantly switching the front and rear at different times.

1450 for 4 tires is actually not bad, don't forget there are all these additional costs around like shipping, CA Tax, mounting, alignment if needed be.
I discovered my rear left tire was flat one day when the car was in the garage. Long story short, a screw got into it.
I do recommend keeping one of those fix-a-tire can in your trunk. Most tire shops don't like cleaning up the goo that it puts inside the tire, but you can inflate the tire and be back in action very quickly. In my case the Lexus dealership was able to clean it and fix the tire. They did however manage to put a small scrape on the inside lip, which made me very upset.

Crazy story, but great ending! To have all of that happen within such a short amount of time is insane. I didn't think $1400 was too bad for a new set of tires, but given the timeframe, it was just good that they had them on hand at the shop. Great shots! The wheels really came out nicely.

I put a little red warning back in my previous post.
