My wife’s X5M gets about 15k to 20k on a set and there probably $2500 a set and my Tesla is 2k a set and I get about 30k on them
I never get anything close to the tread life rating on tires. If they are 55-60k tires I'll be lucky to get 35k out of them.

With people buying more awd have to replace in pairs… run flats x2 was $1k. Jesus Christ life is just unaffordable for the middle class.

No just cheap. I think prices these days for everything in life is out of control. You walk outside and $50 gone

I refuse to buy cereal that is higher than $5...there are some as high as $10 the other day at Whole Foods. But I found some good ones under $5.
Perhaps in the past you didn't worry about prices or pay attention to them...these days, if you do little research, you can make the right economic decision for your situation...

I think this is the real reason. shite I used to not notice is now noticeable. Where are the 4 tires for $99 each deal now days? Hot and spicy McDonald’s is 3.99 now…
Idk if you guys been to a subway recently but some foot longs were $15. I walked out.
I’m not poor I’m not broke but I am a value conscious consumer and have been poor before. If I was in the bottom 80% of America, I’d revolt

frick off bro. you are buying luxury vehicles that are very well known that $99 tires don't go on these fricking cars you chose to buy.

You’re a fricking weirdo. Doesn’t your wife make a million a year or some shite

Of course you have to save money. You lend out your toilet paper to Kalunda, not his real name.

He is excellent at timing the market. You should check out his advice on the money board.

That's wild, I used to get 2 of these for lunch when I was in college. It was $2.18 total.

So working hard excludes you from pointing out issues in society?

lol you should check out subway. Used to be that after $5 footlongs it went to 7-9 at most. $15 is the baseline now

Did you fall asleep in 2019 and wake up last month?
Posted on 7/1/25 at 11:19 am to fareplay
Yep tires are expensive as are auto and lawn batteries.

Almost every topic you make is some underhanded brag about your monetary status.

I can get a new set Michelins for my truck at Sams and Costco for about $1400 installed.
I got Michelin Crossclimate 2s for my granddaughter, right at $1,000 total from Costco.

The issue isn’t that it’s sudden. The problem is that it’s keep going up. Used cars sell for more than MSRP new, cars are just out of control
