I only drive about 6,000 miles per year. My tires were approaching the 9 year mark on my 80,000 mile, 2004 Corolla. They seemed to have some major cracks from the harsh Winter and Summers of Chicago. I've been a little strapped for cash so I bought new Westlake tires f rom Discount Tires. It took them 2weeks to get in because they had to order them from the West Coast. Anyway, does anyone have any experience with Westlake tires? Even if I had money, I don't think I would drop $850 on tires for a 18yr old car. Thanks
