I put new tires on my 2003 Monterey 3 weeks ago at GCR Tires in Coburg, OR. All six tires had the same date (14/14) and were Firestones. With new valve stems and all six balanced, the total bill out the door was $2346. They did give me $50 per each tire on trade in. My old Firestones were 6 years old. I used to buy Michelins but since I only run my tires for 6 years, I felt I was paying extra for the name and the Firestones have never given me a problem.
